Went swimming this afternoon. Sophia likes to float in the water and swim. She also likes to jump into the water and be caught by mom. She loves to repeat and start using words to communicate (hat, swim, my cup, mine!). We all had an ice cone. Sophia ate one whole ice cone by herself.

Yesterday we went to the swimming pools. Sophia enjoys the agua so much! she is also repeating many words. She can recognize many words already. She is a fast learner. She usually takes a nap at 2 PM. This time she was still playing at the pool, but as soon as we left she felt asleep in the car. She was exhausted. She is also eating very well. She must be growing up. She looks taller. I love how she calls me daddy. When I was away last week, she used to look at planes and say "daddy plane!" She is so adorable.

Sophia wants to talk! She seems to be at the same stage where Assen was when we adopted him. She is repeating everything we say or she hears! she loves to play. Today, she went up to the slide all by herself and went down on the slide. She also swang on the swing, not the baby one. She is growing strong. I love this girl!
