Merry Christmas

I wanted to take Sofia to the mall and get pics done with Santa. However, it's getting too close to Christmas time and I've seen the long line. Maybe next year I'll go earlier. This year Santa (with a real beard and his own hair) came to Chick Fil A by our house! No line! So here she is asleep in Santa's arms :-)

Man! Wish I would have brought my good camera! This is a super sweet pic!
The ladies in the background finally calmed their girls down. They were screaming both times their mom's tried to get them to take pics with Santa. They weren't having it.
Merry Christmas!!!

Meet Sofia Guiselle Brady

Sofia (6 days old)
She smiled at me when she was only 2 days old. She has one precious dimple and I love kissing it when she smiles.

I've been so busy with our newborn and school. I'll have to upload pics of Sofia and her nursery later.
Her daddy and I love her so much! We're enjoying watching her grow everyday and the many faces she makes. She's a funny girl.

40 weeks, 6 days and still waiting



Here's a pic of me and late Sofia yesterday evening. Eric and I went to the movies and saw "Courageous" (great movie and highly recommend it). Hopefully you make your debut tonight Missy :-)

I found letters for Sofia's name to look like they're hanging from her tree.

She's late for an important date! :-)

This is a pic of me yesterday, 10/11/11, Sofia's due date.
Is she here? No...Miss Thang is gonna be late. Tsk, Tsk, Tsk. This is teaching me that I need to quit being late to things, not cool.
I have to admit, I've been late to a lot of things (school classes, work, showers, birthdays, dinners, lunches, weddings, airport trips, dates, church...jeez I'm terrible). This experience will def. change that :-) No more excuses (my biggest excuse has been my thick hair, it takes forever to dry!).
So when will she make her debut? This week, this weekend, on her Tia Angie's & Mimi's bday, 10/20/11? I hope not that long...but it's whenever God has it planned. Oh and of course I'm learning about patience.
Whenever you're good and ready Miss Sofia, I'm sure it'll be a fabulous appearance. I'm gonna teach you about punctuality since I've been a terrible role model about that:-)
And to everyone who's ever had to wait on me (especially my poor husband) I'M SORRY!!!

Project Nursery: Still working on the decor

I'm getting an idea of how I want her changing table/dresser decorated. I found a cute birdhouse and a pair of owl bookends. I have another idea for the decor on top with the birdhouse but for the time being her diaper cake and jewelry box are sitting there.

STUFF...cute little canvas bag I found at TJ Maxx for her toys and stuff :-)

4 years ago...

Four years ago, on September 20th,  I met Mr. Eric Scott Brady!
I didn't know I was going out to meet my future husband :-)
It's been a great four years of just me and E!
Now our lives will change in less than 3 weeks with Sofia's arrival. We're ready to meet our newest family member and see what new adventures come our way.
My favorite memory is seeing Eric smile at me for the first time. I thought to myself, wow, what a handsome guy with such a great smile. My second favorite memory is hearing him laugh at Outback :-)
Made him L.O.L.
Can't wait to see Sofia's smile and hear her L.O.L.
Te amo Eric.

I love making you laugh. Makes me happy.
