The Missed Call & Other Horrible Happenings
Sophie and I decided to drive to Bend yesterday to spend the long weekend with my brother and sister. She was SUCH a good girl during the drive but then...
When we got there everyone was still at work so we went inside and plugged my phone in cause it was about to die. We ran out to the car to bring some of our stuff in to discover that WE MISSED PHIL'S CALL! He tried 3 times. I was so upset! I called Phil's mom and sure enough, he had called her instead. I was bawling by the time I got off the phone with her, looked over at Sophie and she was CHOKING on something. My maternal instincts take over and I shove my finger down her throat which causes her to throw up EVERYWHERE. All over the bed, the floor, herself, and me. Then, she poops! Down her leg, on the carpet, won't stay still while I'm trying to change her, puts her hands in it. So there's poop and throw up everywhere.
I finally get that all cleaned up and put everything in the wash. We go back to the car to bring more stuff in. I put her in the car to play for a minute cause its a busy street while I get stuff out of the trunk. I open the door to get her out and she had thrown up EVERYWHERE! I start bawling again and by this time have the worst headache ever. I get ahold of Ben and Trisha and thankfully Ben comes home early. He cleans up the car while I give Sophie a bath. She throws up twice more that night and then continues to dry heave when there's nothing left. It was SO sad. I'm still not sure if she was sick or if I just started up her really sensitive gag reflex, but she seems to be better this morning. WHAT A DAY!
Glad that's over with and now we can have fun in Bend. Hopefully Phil can call again soon but I heard today there are 4 letters from him waiting for us at home!

My Motivation To Cook and The Daddy Stick
Sophie and I are doing just fine without Phil, but are still waiting to hear how he's doing! Any day now we'll hopefully get a letter or a call. I guess the first two weeks are pretty hard core. Before Phil left, he cut his face out of a picture and taped it on this stick for Sophie. She's been carrying it around whenever its not lost!
I turned 26! And had a fun birthday dinner with Sum and Becca at the Cheescake Factory, yum!
Saturday, my Aunt Miney threw me and my cousins Emily and Sarah a joint birthday party at the park. Lots of food and fun. My Aunt Sassy made us these darling aprons...my motivation to cook! I have the best aunts ever!

Sophie Update
Sophie is starting to learn her alphabet, but if you ask her what any letter is she'll say "A". She loves to wear accessories like hats, sunglasses, shoes, and bracelets and if any of us are wearing a hoodie, she prefers we have the hood on. She's starting to say more words and phrases like, "here you go", "come on, let's go", "please", "thank you", "shoes" and "balloon". She pats Phil's back when he picks her up. She loves to give the dogs a treat. Her favorite book is "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie" and I'm pretty sure she loves Curious George more than us.
Here is a video of Sophie training for boot camp with Phil:

1 Accident, 1 New Truck and 1 Month Left
Phil leaves on MAY 6th and won't be back until JULY 3rd. It will be here before we know it!
Many of you know Phil was in an accident a few weeks ago. Someone ran a red light and totalled his truck. Since Phil wasn't hurt at all, it turned out to be a blessing because we got WAY more $ for his truck then we were expecting and we were able to buy Phil this 2005 F150. He is in love with it and now Sophie can ride in Daddy's truck cause it has 4 doors.
Becca was painting my nails the other night and Sophie insisted on having hers done as well. She stayed just like this the whole time:
