Surprise!

Jeff talks in his sleep which can make for some funny stories. Want to hear one?

I'm up in bed reading one of the Twilight books (yes, I finally succumbed to all of the hype) and it's about one in the morning. Jeff has been asleep for a few hours. All of a sudden Jeff begins to giggle. I look over and he's got a big grin on his face as he laughs. I wait for him to say something but instead he opens up his eyes. He looks at me as if he doesn't recognize me. I can't tell if he's awake or still asleep.

Then, all of a sudden his eyes start to bulge out in surprise. They look as if they're going to pop out of his head. (Have you ever seen Pee Wee's Big Adventure? Do you remember the trucker lady that ends up being a ghost? Yea, that's what he looked like) Jeff also has his arms crossed over his chest. He sits up as if he's frightened of me. He's literally shaking. I can't figure out if he's in pain or what. Next thing I know we both scream. I'm not sure who screams first but I jump out of the bed and yell out, "Jeff!" He finally wakes up and we're both looking at each other trying to figure out what just happened when we hear Sofía next door crying. Our screaming woke her up. Poor little Sofía.

Speaking of her, here she is at Sugarhouse park.

Easter Egg Hunt

I've always been told that the holidays are more fun when you have children - it's true. We get a kick out of experiencing everything anew with Sofía. For Easter, we went to the Easter egg hunt near my mom's house in Cottonwood Heights. It was really nice because they had things split up into age groups. Here Sofía gets ready for the hunt with her notorious game face on:

She went from basket to basket like a little pro.

Of course afterwards she had to taste test each new toy.

Time to Eat

Perhaps if we started feeding Sofia this:

she would be less likely to do this:

One minute we're feeding her in the high chair and the next Sofía tries to make an escape. At least we can take comfort in the fact that she likes to drink water

but maybe we need to control the amount that she drinks.

Seriously though, Sofía has been a very good eater...so far. She'll eat anything she can put in her mouth. No teeth yet, but since she's still nursing I'm okay with that.
