Our Little Person

Sofia is now 15 months old. Thought I'd share a quick update on what magnificent things she is doing!

Currently:

Obsessed with water - the sink, dumping cups of liquid (usually her chamomile tea), baths, and showers

Started saying milk over the weekend - sounds like "mmmm" or "mmmmmma" depending on the urgency!

Weighs about 21 pounds

Loves her pink converse high-tops

Has lots of ringlet curls in the back and sides of her head while it's pretty straight on top

Has 16 teeth

Enjoys eating seaweed, broccoli, cereal o's, avocado, yam fries, and apples


Recently started building with blocks!

Sleeps through the night about 50% of the nights right now and only wakes up about 1-3 times the other nights

Makes us read construction themed board books over and over and over and over and.... (Including Diggers Go, Dig It, Machines at Work, Tip Tip Dig Dig)

Communicates with signs and pointing - signs when she's gone potty or poo, signs for milk, more, dog, cat, elephant, bear, bird, and maybe more that I am forgetting

Gets super silly at bedtime - it's quite fun to see (when we aren't too tired!)

Ruthie Mae Handmade Boy and Girl Rag Dolls



The latest dolls from ruthie mae handmade. These two softies were made for a fundraiser for a mama group I am in here in Portland. I secretly hoped my name would be pulled so I could bring them back home again!! The little boy doll is one of my favorites yet! I wish I had more custom orders to make little boy dolls. 


I've started adding some recycled/upcycled materials to my dolls as I can. This doll's hair is felted wool that has been repurposed from a dress.

I used free-motion quilting to create the jean details. LOVING it!
