Sofia is, of course changing everyday, but today I got home and she's no longer taking a step or two and squatting down, she's walking. Check out her latest video. Sofia's figured out how to pause & pivot all while walking. It's just a matter or days before she's mastered this walking thing and will be running!



"Yo, Mama, Papa lets go to the Giants game!"
Can Stella come too?
I look pretty cute in my SF outfit.

What a fun time!
Sunday we packed up the girls and headed north to Sonoma to visit Joani & Peter. Sofia's hangin' out with Auntie Joani at the Sonoma Flag Celebration, basically it's a BBQ & Beer Festival with a small play, but they had a live band and Sofia loved that!
Peter & Papa with Stella, hard and work sampling beers.
Time to go home. Sofia falls asleep and Pat wins a case of wine in a raffle.

Stella calls it a day and catchs some z's.
Sofia's up and ready to move around. Look at her cute skirt from Nonna!
Pat & Sofia & Stella met me at Chrissy Fields this week for a mid-week picnic. The city was actually hot so it was actually perfect near the beach.

Sofia says 'I love you!'Stella says 'Come play with me'
The city says 'I'm glad you're home.'
Back at home Papa & Sofia having fun!

Sofia's activity and mobility has been dialed up a notch this week. She can now transition quite well from sitting down to standing up all on her own, without the help of a leg or piece or furniture.

Sofia took 12 steps on Friday night, seven and then after a balanced paused kept going. She still hasn't quite registered that she can do this walking thing totally on her own. She is more confident standing if she has an object in her hand, like a wash cloth or a small book.

As far as crawling, she's a rock star and loves to play the chasing game. Especially if you actually get on all fours with her.

Here's a snap shot of Sofia after she'd worked her way under the high chair.
So happy in my lil cubby hole
I love my Papa's food!
GO BOMBERS!
GO!
We had wonderful weather for our last weekend in Santa Cruz.
Watch Sofia go...
So are you coming...
Okay I'll come back and play
Here I am!
I love my robe - in my office eating Cherrios
Where is my big sister dog?
Here she comes!

Sofia Mak grows up...

Sofia is taking steps: one, two, three! She's got her Papa's palate and sense
for discovery, but her Mama's energy and temperment.

Sofia stands up on her own and has masterd transfering, whether it's from a piece of furniture or your legs or Stella. Although that doesn't always work so well if Stella decides to move on.
