And Just Like That, January Is Almost Over...
Happy 2013! Jeremy, Sophia and I didn't really do much to celebrate the ringing in of 2013. We had a quiet night at home, all three of us in bed by 10:30pm. The joys of having an 8 month old and being exhausted pretty much every evening!
This month also brought Jeremy and my 5th wedding anniversary. We had a nice lunch out together at True Food Kitchen at Scottsdale Quarter, while my mum graciously took care of Sophia. We also got to enjoy a re-creation of the top tier of our wedding cake, courtesy of Piece of Cake Desserts, who made our initial wedding - it was delicious!
January has brought some new changes for Sophia. She is crawling with much gusto and now is pulling herself up on everything. She gets very upset when you try to take her away from things that could cause her harm (i.e. electrical cords, climbing on things with tile floor beneath them, and doors), likely because her curiosity has piqued and she wants to figure out what everything is. Her new favourite toy is her play tunnel, also loved by Toby and Emma. She delights in going through it, turning around to look at Jeremy or I, then speedily crawling around the dining room table to go through again. Sophia also loves being outside and we took her for her first real hike in her new Osprey hiking backpack (thank you REI and my dad, who helped contribute in its purchase). She was thrilled to be able to see the desert and the dogs from this nifty contraption, complete with very essential sun visor. We hope to get a lot of use out of it this spring, before the weather gets too warm.
Tomorrow, Sophia will turn 9 months old, so we'll post her 9 month photo then! Wishing everyone a wonderful and prosperous 2013 :)
