Sophie Explores Old Town May 1, 2009


We decided to go to Old Town for breakfast. Sophie loves Mama Bear so in we went; Sophie had to walk around and explore then choose her seat. She had "bear pancakes" and yogurt. She thought the bear's ears were quite tasty.

After Mama Bear's we strolled down the street to a couple of shops. I decided to check out October Moon. What fun! Sophie looked at the animals, soap, candles, and t shirts. She was so cute; checked everything out but didn't fuss or ask for any item. A women at the counter making purchases of candles had a conversation with Sophie. She let Sophie smell all of the candles, she was quite impressed when Sophie knew all the colors. Between John and Andrea she learns colors, shapes, letters, numbers and music.

It was quite a coincidence; the woman Sophie was chatting with also had a little girl who was going to be two shortly. The woman had her little girl in a play group which I think is a great idea! Andy wanted to talk to some of her friends with toddlers and see how they might start a play group.
Cute; as we were leaving Sophie stopped to look at the door mat. The mat had a picture of the moon and said, "October Moon" in large letters. Sophie stopped, looked at the mat, pointed to the moon and said, "moon"; THEN she pointed to the word "moon" and said "moon". Not bad for twenty-two months old!

We then walked across the bridge and Sophie stopped at every circle on the railing and looked at the water. There was foam on the water and she saw different shapes at each peep hole. She was a busy girl.

Home for lunch and a nap...

We took Josh to scouts at Murphy School where they had a mother duck and baby ducks in their conservation area. Sophie was very impressed. She kept saying moma duck, baby ducks~ with a big smile on her face. When we got home we got one of her books that showed an egg hatching with a baby duck!

She is so much fun and so smart! I know John is enjoying watching her grow just as much as we are.

I just remembered. Sophie drew a purple "goose" which is outstanding and Andrea framed it.


Andrea called John to see if he would mind picking up Sophie at Perspectives 2 tomorrow. Its very close to his office so I don't think he'll mind. He said OK. Breeana is having a Birthday Party (surprise) and it's going to be at Perspectives.



Tomorrow will be very busy, after Bree's party I have another BDay party for Kevin, Jamaica's boyfriend. Besides Josh has more B'Scout duties Saturday am.

Wow, these kids are busy but so much fun. I'm so grateful to be their mom.
