Having fun with Daddy and Sophie's 1st shiner


Ok, this is officially one of my new favorite photos of Sophie. It was taken on Monday by her Daddy during a photo shoot where she was having fun trying to grab the lens. Despite the bed head and runny nose, I think she is just beautiful in this photo. Happy and having a ball. This is the epitome of Sophie having fun. What a sight!!

In other news, Sophie and I went on what should have been a very happy little morning playdate yesterday. We met up with our good friends the Powells and Bannisters at the Media Playroom which is this indoor playroom with toys and books and train table and it's all carpeted and safe. Or so it seemed.... Sigh...

Soph was having a great time playing and running around with the kids and new toys when she apparently took a face dive and met the business end of a wooden train table. The child had a shiner in seconds. And, it missed her eye by less than half an inch. Needless to say, I felt horrible. And, what was I doing during the time she fell you might ask? Well, I was reading a book to three other amazing children and thought Sophie was ok but I was wrong. So, poor baby got her first shiner. Conveniently, we had a doctor's appt immediately after the playdate so the pediatrician said it looked fine and her eye movements were good. To add insult to injury the poor kid had a blood draw and two shots and was absolutely miserable about the whole ordeal. Other than the freak out, she checked out well for her 12 month well-baby check up. Today the shiner is better. She was a little tender today but otherwise seemed no worse for the wear. Hopefully tomorrow it will be gone.
