What they told me today was that her 6-month shots will have to be 2 months from today or the insurance won't pay. I begin to wonder if we're getting different stories, or if it is all really this complicated. At any rate, we'll be sure to make her 6-month appointment after September 24! Sophia didn't cry until the the 
third shot, but other than some soreness and swelling in her legs has been doing fine today.Our very dear friend Laura arrived last night and she is here through Tuesday morning. She is just wonderful with Sophia and we have had laughter-filled time together. Laura is one of those people who just brings out the laughter in folks and we've been having so much fun - even when we've just been sitting around staring at the baby.
Tonight was Sophia's first swim lesson. We went to a public pool and she
and Paul had a very exciting 30 minutes in the water. She was the youngest in the class but that didn't matter. She had so much fun kicking and splashing. 
Unfortunately, they were across the pool from us so our photos aren't all that great, but the expressions on both her and Paul's faces during it were fantastic.When I came in to the computer room to post to the blog our cat followed me and she decided that Sophia's command center looked like fun too. Usually we chase her away from Sophia's toys, but
this was so funny that I took a picture first.
