Wiggle Wiggle Wiggle

Sophie loves Yo Gabba Gabba; she loves the characters, the music and Tom and I love the fact that the show actually tries to spread positive messages to kids. The show teaches children about such things as the importance of getting enough sleep or how to clean your room and it does it in way that children, including children Sophia's age can relate to. You can tell that the creators probably grew up in the 80's because the show has many elements that are "totally" byproducts of the 80's, especially the music...not to mention the host, DJ Lance Rock who is dressed in a frothy orange outfit. I love the show and so does Soph...this is the show that taught her how to wiggle wiggle wiggle.

Growing Up

It never stops amazing me how my daughter is growing and turning into this amazing kid who is trying so hard to be independent. She is saying new words everyday, trying to put on her own clothing, climbing on and off chairs and couches... It seems that with every passing minute, my "kid" is learning something new and growing up before my eyes. I know...I know...she's only 16 months but she went from cooing to smiling to giggling, pointing, singing, walking, running and dancing all within a blink of an eye. Part of me wants time to slow down, stand still even, so that I can embrace and hold on to my little baby forever, while the other part of me is getting a kick out of watching her grow into this cute kid who will eventually grow into an amazing woman. Wow! I feel so fortunate, so blessed, so lucky to be a mom to this precious little being who has changed my life forever.
