Lots of Excitement in June - Stolen Car, Sophie Walking and Sophie's Shiner,

Sophie's first ride and hopefully last in a cop car!
Yes, it's true our white car was stolen....It all started one Thursday morning with a police officer pounding at our door. I was of course scared because Travis was gone to South Texas and I never open the door when I am home by myself. I looked out the window and saw a police car and an officer. I opened the door to this "Are you missing a car????" of course not, I parked the car in the driveway last night...as I walked with the officer to my driveway my answer sooned change, yep I was missing a car. So after buckling Sophie's carseat into the police car and driving out to the stix of San Antonio there was our innocent white civic that had been taken advantage of. It was stolen for parts. The bad people who stole it broke in the car and hot wired it. So now 3 weeks later of having it fixed we have our car back in the driveway....except this time we have sensor lights in the driveway (more like stadium lights) and a club on the steering wheel. The sad thing about it is that the parts they stole weren't even the expensive parts to fix. I would have given them the key to my car instead of them breaking the steering column or better yet I would have given them the money to buy them the part they needed. But when it's all said and done everything happens for a reason...I'd like to believe the people who did it needed the money for thier starving kids. Plus no one got hurt and we are still very blessed.

Sophie's Wagon, Black Eye, and YEAH FIRST STEPS!!!
FINALLY, we got Sophie's Birthday present....A WAGON. My Dad and his wife and my great friend, more like 2nd Mom Phyllis from Beaumont sent her money for her birthday so we wanted to get her a wagon with it! She loves riding in the wagon and so do I! I think it will fit our whole family in it someday! Sophie starting taking her first steps on her own around June 15th. Then on the 16th My friend Heidi brought her kids over for awhile and Sophie saw Logan walking and she started walking after him. Then Sophie got a little too comfortable and fell and hit the edge of the chair. I felt so bad for her. It swelled up so fast. I wanted to cry but realized this is just the beginning of bumps and bruises!

Was your last name Jorgenson before? Or is this a different Phyllis?

wow you guys have been busy! That wagon is so cute though. I would love to get one, especially for Sea World...but we don't have a huge car to haul it in. ANyways, I hope her shiner gets better! OH and holy crap with the car! That is nuts. I'm glad no one got hurt too. Thank goodness!

Woa! Crazy month. I wouldn't have a clue what to do if our car was stolen but the bruises, man I do know what to do with those. We've already had our first bumps and bruises and like you said, many more to come I'm sure. Your cakes look awesome. I guess I should get creative and homemakey someday.

Don't you just love having a car stollen. We had ours stollen the first night we moved into our new house. Welcome to the Neighborhood! We got it back and haven't had any issues with the neighborhood since.
