Since it's been a little bit since my last post, here are some updates...
On 9/11, we celebrated "Grandparent's Day" with my parents. Sonia made them a cute card with her hand prints on it. (Thanks to my friend Lacretia for her help with our craft project!) She was very happy to celebrate with Grandma and Grandpa!
Sonia continues to play and laugh more and more each day. Our neighbor across the street gave Sonia several toys and many outfits to enjoy that her daughter has grown out of. One of her favorites is a bouncing zebra toy that she can now get on and off of herself and bounce and laugh like crazy. She also loves her "Little People" zoo and farm sets. We imitate the animal noises which again brings huge laughter!
Sonia is getting more and more mobile. She isn't yet brave enough to take steps alone but she is becoming more and more confident walking with just one hand as security. She is also becoming more confident taking steps backwards and sideways. I'm guessing that one of these days she's going to take off... but, for now, this is a great stage as I can explore right along with her (and also keep close tabs on what she's going after!).
Thursday, Sonia had her pediatrician appointment. The good news is that all the blood, urine, and stool tests came back great. She also gained 2 inches in height and 1 pound since 8/26. She's now in the 74th percentile for height... maybe she'll be a tall girl like I always wished to be. Her weight is still in the 11th percentile but she's definitely feeling stronger and more solid. The bad news is that she had to get four shots and also a TB test. She ran a 101 degree temperature the next day and was quite miserable only wanting to be held and walked with. I felt so sorry for her. But, she bounced back and was in great form on Saturday.
Saturday, Sonia got a haircut and we had pictures taken. She wasn't a big fan of either but is a trooper and made the best of both.
