Halloween weekend

It was trick-or-treat on Saturday at downtown Menlo Park! We are the super heroes! Superman dad, Spiderwoman mom and Supergirl Sophie! Sophie was terrified of Superman, especially when dd had the mask on. I think she hated his blue fingers. Sophie had her first tries asking for candy. As usual, after a while she was running amok again.
And then Sunday we were at Happy Hollow Zoo. Forgot about the Halloween event but many kids were dressed up. Sophie wasn't, but that's ok. She didnt really like the super girl costume anyway. 
A little grumpy and clingy when we were at the zoo because she just woke up.
The day always gets better when ball-ball appears.
Enjoying dance performances on the lawn.

Goodbye Good Sam...

Sophie said Byebye to her first daycare today and will be moving on to her new daycare on Monday. 
Why? Because its Chinese, cheaper and they provide food. I'm sad because she has been always happy at Good Sam so   I hope she will be just as happy at the new one.
Sad to say Byebye to one of Sophie's besties-Jakie.
Giving Sophie a Hi-5!
Hugs!

Goggles!...

Sophie jump!

Sophie attempts a jump-haha one leg is still on the ground. Listen at the end where she noticed a bird in the sky and said "bird bird!"

Small but mighty!

Sweet cheeks is 19months! She may be petite and tiny but she's packed with power!
We went for a wedding last Saturday. And initially the kids were shy. But Sophie was the first to hold out her hand to ask an 4-year old girl to hold hers. Before long, she assimilated into the group of older girls, and they were holding hands and dancing in a circle, singing to the tune:

Ring-a-around the rosie,
A pocket full of posies,
Ashes! Ashes!
We all fall down!

And falling down when they sing the "falling down" bit. Sophie was apparently being dragged along in the circle, but she seemed to be having lots of fun.

Sophie can sign sleep, star, moon, book, and milk. She catches on quickly after watching the Baby Signs DVD. Her favourite cartoon is Kailan...which she affectionately calls it "Ka!".

She loves playing with her puzzle toys. She can place the gears in their right colours for the spinning wheels gear toy and knows the geometric sorting board. She knows how to use the buttons to make the animals pop up for the safari pop-up animals toy.
She slipped into the shoes herself!
