Sophie - 2/6/2017

Sophie ate most of chex cereal and half of mixed fruit for breakfast.  For lunch she ate pulled pork sandwich, drank tomato soup, and ate three servings of pickled beets.  At breakfast every morning I ask the same question; "What did you do last night?"  or "this past weekend?"  It's hilarious to hear some of the answers; Cooper and Reid both got tired of the question and started doing a standard answer and would repeat it everyday for weeks.  Sophie quickly learned that as well and now has said the same thing every day for at least 6 weeks;  Standard Answer; "Play with Sula."  This morning after Sophie answered, Hudson said, "my Sula."  A little disagreement ensued!!  Haha!  Later I was changing Hudson's diaper and I asked him the same question.  He said, "play Sula."  Sophie yelled from inside the igloo; "Sula my dog."

We did a toy, book, and puzzle exchange this weekend and the kids were super busy all morning checking out everything.  We rarely do anything besides explore toys on the Monday after Toy Exchange.  I had the books for Story Time ready to go (Sophie had requested stories), but I was momentarily interrupted and the kids didn't even notice or want to continue.  And that is really unusual for Story Book Sophie!!  It's a rare day that she lets Story Time slip by!

Several times this morning Sophie tried to talk Hudson into putting on some dress-up clothes and she was using every angle she could think of.  (First two pictures.)  But Bubba stayed strong and never did put on clothes or shoes!  Ha!  She was saying things like; "Well I ask you ONE time Bubba!"..."I save them here!" and "Momma will help you soon Bubba!"....  :)  And in the third picture you can see Sophie is sitting on a huge pile of books.  "Look where I'm sitting Gary."

In the last picture Sophie is playing a game that she has learned from Kenzie and Riley.  They frequently build a door for the igloo entrance and then fill the inside of the igloo with stuffed animals.  Sophie had most of the door build from blocks, but asked for help.  Then she got inside and asked, "Gary, can you shut my door?"  Yup.  :)
