Tea Party fun

Sofia is really into tea parties. Josh and Joanna gave her a really nice tea set for Christmas that is glass so she can only do that one with Mommies supervision. She really likes it though because she can stir the little cups with the silver spoons (see video below). However she now has a cute little plastic tea set that is awesome! She will offer you tea and say please and thank you, it is really cute. We also went to the Kid's Festival in Bethesda a couple of weekends ago where there was a whole booth set up for just tea parties. Sofia loved dressing up in the hats and boas, and then got to sit and have tea with Ms. B. It was a little bit of a disaster because all she wanted was to eat the pretend cupcake. When it was her turn to "eat," the cupcake she then realized it wasn't real, and that she was not going to be able to keep it, she lost it. I mean real screaming, people were staring, it was actually pretty hilarious that she got so upset over the cupcakes, and just wanting to eat it:)
Here are a couple of pics and videos of our new found love of the tea party. One of my favorites is the one on the bottom where my mom and her are having tea "long distance," through skype. And yes they are both wearing hats (and I am too, I am just behind the camera:)

Oh Katie, this just makes me realize even more how much it suuuuuuucks that we don't still live next door because G would be all. over. this. She and S could have tea parties all day long. The only difference is with G's tea parties she also serves hot dogs, peas, and whatever plastic food is handy along with the tea. very elegant. You and I could kick up our feet with some iced tea, life would be so easy! btw the tutu she's wearing in the PnP is gorgeous.

I'll have to show G the video when she's up from her nap.

Miss you guys!
