Sophiaisms

Sophia has been doing some extremely adorable things lately and I just have to share.

Sophia = ME!
-- Sophia was riding nicely in the shopping cart this afternoon at Toys R Us when I asked her a question I've asked a ton of times before: Who Is Sophia? She looked right at me, pointed to her chest and yelled out - ME!!! I asked her again and again and she kept doing it. Way to go!! She can say some of the names of her friends. She'll say Addie, Haley, Cole, Riley and Uh-oh (that's Isabella's name because Sophia visited her over Christmas and pushed her down a few times).

Drag Mom & Dad Around
-- Whenever she wants either of us to play with her (and lately we've only been playing Little People) she takes one of our hands and pulls us toward the play room. When we arrive at the play destination she commands us to "DOWN" (which means sit down and play with me please).

Cold or Hot
-- Sophia declares everything either COLD or HOT. Most of the time she thinks her food is going to be "HOT". Whenever she's outside and the wind blows she shouts out "COLD". Her milk and cucumbers are COLD. The running bath water is HOT.

No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service
-- Unless she's wearing shoes, this kid will run around in her bare feet all day long. She's let you know the floor is COLD, but she won't keep her socks and slippers on at all. She also prefers to be totally nude these days (yes, that means sans diaper) and will not stop running around long enough for me to change her clothes or put new clothes on her. It's one of her favorite games! Make Mom Chase Me and Then Wail When She Catches Me Because I Hate Clothes!

Duck Duck Goose
-- This game started as a remedy for her Make Mom Chase Me to Put My Clothes On game, but has since progressed to a real game of duck duck goose. Sophia loves it when Daddy plays and giggles and grins each time she's pecked on the head and named Duck or Goose - it doesn't matter to her!
