Snow Suit

We got a great package from Grandma last week that included two snow suits. Sofia got to try one on and was hilarious walking around in it, and put a monkey in her pocket! I guess she is not like her mommy, because she is obviously ready to play in the snow!

Pumpkin Patch Fun

Last weekend I went with our friends Jeff and Jenn and their baby Avery to the Pumpkin Patch while Chad stayed home and did some writing (I think he was so sad to have missed out:(
We had a BLAST! The girls ended up by accident wearing the same shirt, so the pictures are extra super cute! Everyone kept asking if they were twins:) I think they loved the moon bounce the most. We loved spending time with Avery, here are a couple of pictures and two short videos.


One pumpkin for you and one pumpkin for me:)

Walking on hay was harder than it appeared to be!

Wild Things

Our current favorite book is "Where the Wild Things Are." I think that I could literally recite the entire book to you at this point. Sofia we have found that she is just like me, she LOVES to be scared and scary things. So she just loves this book, she will bring it to you and say "Wild Thi." The other day I took her to the toy store to just look. Well we found max the doll and a wild thing. After playing with them and telling everyone in the store that it was a "Wild Thi," we had to go home. The whole way home from the back seat I heard, "Wild thi, Wild thi." I guess Santa may be bringing her a wild thing for Christmas! Here are is a video or her reciting a part of the book. It is all pretty hilarious to me.

Mommy Sofia

Last weekend we took Sofia to the park with her baby carriage. She loves baby dolls and she loves her carriage, our house is just to small to really stroll in. She loved it, all except for wiping out when she went down a hill too fast, after that daddy had to push the stroller and she carried her baby. I guess it was too dangerous for Cinderella baby to be in the carriage after the wipe out.

Newport Beach Slide Show

So we are heading home tomorrow. Six hours on a plane....wow I can't wait:) But I thought that I would share some pics of our trip. Here is a slide show from my mom's camera.

More Disney Picks

Sorry I couldn't resist more pics, they are all just so cute. I guess I should have just done a slide show...maybe next time:)


Notice how far she is standing from Goofy....she wasn't so sure of him (or any of the characters with a "mask." However she loved to look on from a far and wave)


She is trying out the car in toon town, while enjoying a rice cake.


Minnie ears! The only time she wore them was for this picture:(


Riding the tea cups AGAIN with Uncle Tim.


Watching the princess show. Where she met a prince and she kept blowing kisses to him!

Disney Land... I am not so sure about this.

One thing that I forgot to mention in my Newport post was that Sofia took a little bit of time to warm up to Disney Land. We took her on the pirates of the Caribbean first, she clung to me. She didn't cry, she just wasn't sure about the dark. So of course the next ride we took her on was the haunted mansion, she really didn't like that one. So we then took her on Dumbo, the tea cups, and then the Alice in Wonderland ride. She liked the first two, but didn't like the Alice one. We finally figured out that it wasn't the rides, she just didn't like the dark rides. So we stayed on rides that kept us outside:) Here are a few pics.


At lunch with Mimi and PB, Thank you again for bringing me to the best place on earth!


Riding the Dumbo ride with Mommy and PB


Here I am so excited to ride the tea cups, I am not waiting for Mimi, I can get in on my own!


I loved Alice, I would go anywhere with her.


One of these rides again! (Please notice how happy Mommy and Mimi are, and how I think that Disney Land is not for me!)
