I erased some really cute pictures and a great movie of Sophia and Lillian opening presents from Aunt Carole. She sent each of us a Boyd Bear: mine was holding a heart that read Moms are Angels, Sophia's was holding a frilly purple "Princess" pillow, and Lillian's bear was wearing a tutu because our little Lilly loves to dance. Sophia was thrilled that all three bears could be pals, as she put it. Aunt Carole also sent a black and white cat which Sophia hasn't put down since his arrival. At first she named him Cookie, but now she's changed his name to Baby Jaguar (from Diego). She's been pretending to be Diego and rescue Baby Jaguar in different scenarios. She'll wrap her jump rope around the cat a few times and each time she gets so lucky it doesn't fall off the cat. Other times she just refers to the cat as Kitty. She sleeps with Kitty. She holds him sometimes with Lamby and sometimes chooses Kitty over Lamby. Kitty has also accompanied us on a few car trips already.
I'll preface this next part with this: Sophia always calls people by the wrong name. She gets so excited that she calls me Daddy and vice versa all the time. After Grancy left she called Ms. Sue, her swimming teacher, Grancy.
This was on the video that I erased: Sophia had opened all the boxes and she looked up at the camera and said: THANKS, AUNT CLAROLE. (This is a combination of Aunt Carole who has the perfect knack for giving Sophia stuffed animals that become her favorites and Aunt Claire who had just visited a few days earlier!) It still cracks me up when I think about it.
