Grancy's Spring Break Visit

Grancy came to visit Sophia on Monday and was here until yesterday afternoon. She was only gone for about 2 hours when I started missing her already - coincidentally that was exactly when Sophia woke up from her nap!

Sophia was so excited that Grancy was coming for a visit. For two days she was carrying around the panda bear that Grancy brought back from China. Sophia was standing at the front door waiting for her RED car to pull up to the house and it only took a few seconds before Sophia was pulling Grancy by the hand into her play room for some FUN.

I headed out for the afternoon and the two of them played all day. They took Sadie for a walk, played FOOD and EAT with Sophia's kitchen set and put puzzles together. Sophia didn't miss me one bit (what a wonderful and expected relief).

On Tuesday Grancy and Sophia went to Tunes for Tots and then out to lunch while I enjoyed another free day to run errands and get Tropical Smoothie Cafe for lunch. YAY! I could tell they had a great time because Sophia practically went straight into her crib when they got home and slept for about 3.5 hours.

Yesterday the three of us colored a few Easter Eggs (or as Sophia is calling it - EGGS GET BATH) and then we went to the mall to visit the Easter Bunny. Being the mean mom that I am I made Sophia sit on my lap while I sat beside the Bunny for a photo session. I can't wait to see the pictures that Grancy took because the "professional" one certainly wouldn't win any awards. Of course, Sophia was terribly frightened of the Bunny and really didn't want to be anywhere near him - even on my lap! However, when we went upstairs to the food court after our "crying spectacle", Sophia was delighted to watch the Bunny. I would even go as far as to say she was giddy!

Before we left the mall we stopped to ride/play in the ice cream truck, the train and the firetruck. What a great day.

Check out all of the pictures.
