Sophia Bell is 6 years old!!!

Sophia's favorite color is pink!

Sophia turned 6 years old on Thanksgiving Day! It was fun to have a birthday girl in our house on Thanksgiving because we were home all day with her.
When Sophia was born we all referred to her as the baby. I don't know why we just did. I just can't believe that the baby is now 6!!!! It seems like she was just born.

Sophia is very special to our family. We really wanted her. Her brother has loved her and been very protective of her since the day she came home from the hospital. He is always the first one to put his arm around her if she has been sad or the first to give her a hug of excitement over something good. Sophia and Emily have both been sick and Emily has let her sleep in her room to share the humidifier. After they didn't need it any more Emily asked if she could still sleep with her. It was very sweet.
So, we had a great Thanksgiving Day. We don't like turkey so we had ham and Sophia asked for pasta with alfredo sauce. We had an apple pie and birthday cake.

Sophia got a Crayola glow station(which she has been dying to have) from Grandma and Grandpa Patty and a CD of Camp Rock from the kids(which Emily said 2 hours after they gave it to her they were regretting, she plays it all the time) a GC from G&G Bell, press on nails and a pink knitted scarf from Aunt Ammie, Curious George book from Mom and Dad. She had a great day. Emily made and decorated her a cute pink cake.
It was so nice to hang out and play with her and her new toys and have a nice family dinner.
After dinner things got real busy with putting up the Christmas trees and decorations. As soon as that was over we started packing and getting ready for our trip to California. We left for Disneyland on Monday Dec 1st. We met Mom and Dad and the girls for 5 days. It was beyond fun. I will get a slide show ready later on today. I have lots to report on DL.
Here are 2 cute videos. Love, Amber
