New love for Pony's

My sister's neighbors have horses and they finally came down to the fence and we were able to pet them. Sophia was a bit afraid at first, but now is in heaven and can't stop talking about them.
Here is Frankie feeding them first.
Mommy and Sophia
Smiley Girl didn't want her picture taken
Ok, maybe a big cheesy smile
Ok, mom just one
Back to feeding the ponies


She was so thrilled
She was totally trying to get away..LOL

1st and foremost I need to Thank my SBP for the adorable card I got in the mail. You have totally got me with this one. What a great idea, now hints, I need hints! Thank you for brightening my day!
FFF this week is silly smiles, and boy does Sophia give us some smiles.
Here is her almost smile
Full faced belly smile with brother
Her nope, not smiling smile
And this is the new smile, we don't know how she does it but she flips her lip down and smiles as us like this.

The world always looks brighter from behind a smile. ~Author Unknown

Great Friends!

I have the best friends in the world. After Sophia broke her arm, she has received many cards and the Monday she got presents. And boy does she like presents.
Here she is sitting on the couch ready to open her present from Brayden and Arianna.
Right after she peeked in she looked and me and said "Ohhhh"
She said Help Me Momma
She gave up looking at me at this point, she was so excited.

I mean come on, look at that big smile!
Reading her card
All fancied up and ready to go to the bus to pick up Frankie.
Thank you to Katie, Brayden and Arianna for making Sophia's day.
Sophia also got a card from our friend Bonnie & Saffron and yesterday got a Halloween shirt and card from Leslie and Abby. I will of course post pics of that soon too.
Thank you all very much for going out of your way to put a smile on my baby girl's face. She absolutely loves to get mail. And boy did you make her day.
Friendship isn't a big thing - it's a million little things. ~Author Unknown

Adjusting to the Cast

Sophia is having a hard time getting used to the cast and having a broken elbow. She is just miserable. She is not sleeping at night and is having such a hard time during the day.
I took her to Target and told her I would buy her a present for being such a big girl and she picked out this princess cup. And is happy and content with it.
Here she is trying so hard to open it and get it open and get a drink.

Finally..
She was dancing
Stopped for a smile for momma
Being silly
She was saying Itchy mommy
And this is the before shot of ouchhhhhh and then a scream

This is just a close up, because I love them big brown eyes!

FFF for us this week is BROKEN

Sophia is broken
She fell out of her bed on Wednesday night and landed on her elbow. We thought she was ok. She got up Thursday morning and her arm was swollen from the Elbow down. Her little fingers looked like sausages. Off to statcare we went and they took pictures and guess what? She broke both of her bones in her elbow. So, we had to wait until 4pm and take her to a Orthopedic. They casted her and she has to wear it for 3 weeks. Hopefully if all goes well she should not have to wear it any longer.
She is absolutely miserable. All day Thursday she kept saying "Mommy hold me, I'm Broke" It broke my heart. Last night when we got home she kept saying "Mommy, I'm done, take it off" She doesn't really understand that she can't take it off and has to wear it until it's better. She went to sleep pretty good but was up at 530 this morning. She can't find a comfy spot.
I know accidents happen, but I gotta tell you when it's broke and "mommy kisses" can't fix it. It is just devastating, because Mommy kisses are supposed to fix everything.

And as you can see, some days I think he gets tired of her..LOL
