Both of my kids have, at some point in time, had a thing for "jellies." Last summer (or has it been two summers ago?) our cousin Jared, who lives in Hawaii, got stung by a jellyfish while surfing. It was a super hot topic with Spencer for weeks. He would request the story over and over. One night, as you can tell by the terrible lighting in the video, Kimmie got him to tell the story in his own words. Hope you can understand it, there's something in there about Jared throwing up, thinking he was going to die, getting the leg out so he could walk...
Now Sophie has her own kind of jellies. They were really the first pair of shoes I was able to get her to wear. Whenever she sees them she gets excited and wants us to put them on. Today for some crazy reason, she slept with her jellies. As I was rocking her to sleep, she would wake up if her hand relaxed and her jelly slipped out. At one point in time, she even tried to suck on it like it was her bottle. She gets complemented every time she wears them out in public, seems every girl wants to reminisce about her own pair of jellies! Lisa took this picture this weekend, I absolutely love it.

I was very tempted to get Hannah a pair of Jellies, purely for me to relive me childhood through her...but whatever!
Oh. My. Gosh. That picture is AWESOME!!! I just wanna pinch those chubby little cankles! Look at those tiny jellies! Even though I've seen them before, I've never seen them on her. They are much cuter on and from this angle. Great pic, Lisa!
Spencer cracks me up, I love how he says "Him walked, Him went under the water" And the memory on this kid is insane.
What da ya know, something else Lisa is good at, taking pictures. Gag me...maybe it's just that Sophie is such a good subject....I like that idea better!
She's probably really not that good at pictures, she was using my super cool camera!
That looks like an award winning pictures...enter it into the fair :)
Cankles! Alicia you crack me up! That has got to be one of the cutest pudgy baby parts pictures I've ever seen. Love it!
I think I scared Spencer at Walmart on Sunday! I saw him in his basket at the checkouts and I walked right by him waving and smiling saying, "Hey Spencer!" He got this look on his face like he had no idea who I was and why was I so excited to see him. It was pretty funny. Of course, Jason has never met me before so he had no idea who I was either. :)
Kim, he actually came home super excited and told me that he saw you. It was hysterical watching him try to spit it all out!
That really is a great picture. The shoes are adorable and her little hand is perfection. I love it.
I wish I had Spencer around to narrate my life. It always sounds more exciting coming from him. Not the actual words, because you can't really understand them all, but the feeling he puts into it.
Wow, Spence has come a LONG way with enunciation. What a freaking character!!! And yes, I was using your super cool camera, and yes, Soph is like the most amazing subject ever...but let's not forget that it all starts with a vision. Mmm Hmmm. ;)
