It's Almost Summer!

Mommy was gone for a few days this week - but got back just in time for the nice weather.

Sophie got home from daycare (a little early on Thursday - mommy was really excited to pick her up), and played outside.

Sophie's favorite things outside are:
- Rocks
- Roonies Pooper Scooper
- Roonies Chain
Daddy says that Sophie wears her jeans like her mom....

The mullet is growing like the grass in her back yard (long in some places, nothing in other places).

Mullet Update

Sophie has been pretty busy lately - so we appologize for not posting. She spent much of last week at Grandma & Grandpa Brakke's. I'm glad she came home, so she didn't get used to living the good life. And, we missed her so much!



She actually got her first ear infection this week (and an eye infection). The doctor was pretty amazed that she's 15 months old, and this is her first one. I told him that her cousins have not been so lucky in the ear department. I think Sophie's uncles blame her mom. I told Sophie that cool girls have ear issues when they're young, so she'll be okay.


Anyway - Sophie's ever-changing hair/mullet:





This mullet was on 5/06. This is kind of our daily routine. Kisses (but at this point 7:50 am, all Sophie wants to do is eat), and good byes.

Here, we have an attempt at piggy tails later that day - Sophies friends Erin & Tara wanted to make her look like a girl. It didn't last long. She's like her mom - too much fuss just to look cute.




Monther's Day: 5/11 - We have full fledged piggy tails! Her bangs are still kind of non-existant, but they'll come. Again, they didn't last long.








The last picture was from yesterday morning - 5/13. This was a bit of a challenge, you really can't see the full effect of her hair/mullet, and she's not feeling very well...so, not a happy camper. But, I think this shows the "party in the back" - curling under very nicely, while there really isn't any side-hair yet to worry about.

You might be a redneck....


If your mom & dad make you wear a "vintage" Dale Jr. T-shirt and brush your mullet before daycare.



Mommy's sorry Sophie.
