Sophia has been waving hi and bye!

Sophia got to play outside for a little bit. She would not touch the grass though. She would crawl to the edge of the blanket and just sit there, then crawl to the other side.

Happy 10 months to Sophia tomorrow! Sophia played outside in the sun today. She enjoyed the experience and getting some vitamin D.

Sophia crawled over to the door when I was coming in and blocked it. Then she started doing pat a cake. It was really cute. She is also chewing on her bottle more than sucking on it.

Sophia loves to have music playing and she will dance to it. It is so cute! Sophia is such a fun little girl!

Sophia played peek a boo/ hide and seek today. If we did not call out "where is Sophia" she would pop up and look at us and remind us to call out for her.

Today Sophia got to play outside. When it was time to come in she started crying.

Totally Tubular!
Today I had a Bilateral myringotomy and tubes put in my ears. A Bilateral myringotomy and tubes is a surgery in which a small opening is made in each eardrum and a small tube is placed in the opening on each side.
My day started at 7:15 AM at the American Fork Hospital. I got to the hospital and my parents checked me in. As soon as I went back to the pre-op room my friend Kyle came to visit me. Kyle is my neighbor and was my anesthesiologist. I really like him and my parents were happy he could be there for my surgery.
My parents dressed me in this child hospital gown and I couldn't stop playing with the tag on my ankle as you can see from the picture below. Mommy was afraid I would cry all morning because I couldn't have anything to eat after 12:00 AM, but I did really well before my surgery and didn't even cry. They carried me off to the operating room at 8:15 AM and I was back in the room at 8:30. Dr. Heras said the surgery only takes 6 minutes.
After my surgery it was a different story. I cried the whole way home in the car. I cried when I burped. I cried when I'd try to stand up and then immediately fell down. I couldn't stop crying. By the end of the night I was doing better, but it was a long day. I had my moments of happiness today, but for the most part I wasn't myself. Hopefully these tubes help me so I don't have chronic ear infections.

Letters from My Daycare
This is a little background on why I had to switch daycare's:
I started going to a new daycare on February 1st, 2011. I had to switch daycare's because my current babysitter was pregnant with twins and she gave mommy a two week notice. Mommy and daddy were really worried they wouldn't be able to find a daycare in two weeks, but they got very lucky! They found a really nice daycare the next day, called Bright Beginnings.
Now onto the letters...
Bright Beginnings gives my parents a report card every day. It is a detailed report of what I ate and when, when they changed my diaper, and when I took a nap. There is also a section for notes. They don't always write my parents a letter, but here are a few letters they written to my parents.
February 2nd, 2011-
Dear Kristin and Jeff, Sophia did so well yesterday. She is a very wonderful eight month old!! We are glad she has come to our care center.
1. She is social- only cries when hurt or afraid.
2. She is doing well with language- babbles and says some words to communicate.
3. She is very active and is discovering her world at a very rapid rate.
4. Her development is typical and motor skills are right on target.
February 16th, 2011-
Little Sophia does well in spite of her not feeling well. Today she said, "mama-mama" and "bye-bye". She pulled herself up to the crib. She continues to do well in her development.
February 25th, 2011-
Today Sophia was the only infant. She received the best one on one care. She is a good eater, sleeper, and crawler. I observed her at length and she is right on schedule with her development. There are four domains: 1-Social and Emotional Development, 2-Language Development and Communication, 3- Cognitive Development, 4- Physical and Motor Development.

Sophia tried to take a step without holding on to anything. She fell and has not wanted to try since.

Sophia has almost turned into a toddler. She is a great little girl!
My parents couldn't be happier that I go to Bright Beginnings! I love it too.

Tubes
I went to the ENT doctor today because I've had 6 ear infections in 6 months. Dr. Heras said that having that many ear infections is bad and she recommended to my parents that I have tubes put in my ears. I go in for surgery on Tuesday, March 8th. My neighbor is going to be my anesthesiologist. Mommy and daddy are glad he can be there with me because he is someone I'm familiar with.

I'm a Cruiser
It's almost been two weeks since I started standing up and now I'm even better at it. I can crawl over to a tall object and pull myself up. I started with the Laugh and Learn Kitchen, but now I can hold onto the sofa and pull myself up. I've also started to "cruise" which is holding onto something and walking. I can hold onto the sofa and walk from one side to the other. I'm all over the place now. I like to follow the dog and pull on his hair. I also like to go in the kitchen and open up the drawers. My favorite thing to do is crawl to the oven and open up the bottom drawer.
Watch me...
