Home at Last...

And i don't plan on going anywhere for a long, long time....I'm over Done with Road Trips....Sign me out, did i mention i was Done? Traveling in a car, to St. George & back, three times in one week, with a small child..... is not something that I care to ever do again! Oh, I forgot Idaho...so that works out to approximately 35 hours in an inclosed vehicle with an almost 3 year old Sweet Girl, that was not so sweet in the end. But we're home now, and moving forward....the problem now is that she thinks when we get in the car...she needs a movie and bag of chips!

Sophie's Fetish....

Sophie luvs to perform, especially when i'm recording...She luvs to dance and sing and then watch it over and over and over again. Twinkle, Twinkle has always been her most favorite song to sing. The other night she was in a mood. I recorded 10 different videos of her just singing and dancing. Here's a taste...

Silly Silly Girlie....

Sophie

She is seriously the funniest little girl! She hears and picks up on everything.....I was getting ready for work the other night and she said "your a pretty princess mommy, just like Belle". Princess Belle is her new favorite. She likes her because daddy does. She is getting so excited for her Princess Birthday! So is mama..

David was having a conversation with her one day in the truck about being sick. He said "sophie, why is your nose running?" she replied "because i have a hot", he said "a hot?" she said "ya, i have a hot and a cold". Funny Girl!

A few dayz before Christmas we were shopping. She wanted to help me pick things out for everyone. She spotted a furry coat and ran up to it and said "oh my gosh mama, this looks just like Amy!" this comes from me coming home from work with gifts and asking David "doesn't this look just like(random name)?" She also is big into music. She luvs to sing. There's always music playing somewhere. She has one of the boys old MP3 players that we've put some of her favorite songs on. It's so funny to watch her. She'll just walk around the house with the earphones in singing "i am a child of god" at the top of her lungs, totally off key. She also likes grown up music. You know, the songs with a great beat, but the not so great lyrics, the ones you can shake it too. We were at a little store the other day and she was sitting on the ground over in a corner, being a good girl, watching me shop. This song came on the radio, just the music, no words yet, and she yells to me, really loudly, "mama, it's Womanizer", talk about crawl in a big freakin hole and hide. Not a proud moment! The sales lady just looked at me and smiled. Not really a song you want your 2.5 year old singing. We've been lots more careful since then. She luvs Music! And dancing. She is always dancing. Even when she walks, she dances. She has some great moves that are pretty cute. She luvs to go to Dance class too. She is super uncoordinated, but it's still cute.

For Christmas all she wanted and talked about was her Pink Puter and her Pink Blogger, and her Pink Diginal Camara.....We were in the car one day and she said "mama, when's that Santa guy bringin me my Pink Puter?" Seriously, funny! She luved Santa too...Wasn't afraid at all. Glad for that...

And let me apologize now to anyone she may call a ButtHole. A word she has picked up from her brothers that can fight like no other. Okay, and i'm guilty as well. We're getting better though. We were checking out at Walmart and she wanted gum. Yes, gum is to her as Diet coke is to me! Big freakin Weakness. Anyway, i said not today, so she looked at the Cashier and asked him. He said "your mommy said no, i'm sorry", she proceded to call him a Butthole and flip her head around in disgust. Again, not a very proud moment.

Halloween 08

Halloween....What a fun Holiday! The one time of year you can dress like a complete moron and win a prize for it! Totally Awesome! It was a busy Week for us. When i say week i mean it went on for a week with all the partying we did. The Oldhams threw there Annual Halloween Bash. It was 80's attire. It was fun to see how everyone remembered the 80's. I obviously didn't have a camara, so no pics sorry. But just imagine mullets, high crimped hair, tacky makeup, and leg warmers. It was fun. They (oldhams) also had a party for all the little people. Dress like a Rockstar...blue hair and all...(again, no pics)

This year, the boys were so easy with costumes. Bailey dressed as a Gangsta, and Bridger dressed as a nerd.

Sophie of course was Strawberry Shortcake. She became addicted when Kenzie gave her the movie and coloring book! Everything is about Strawberry Shortcake! I luv it though, i had the same facination with it when i was a kid.

The little people and I also went to the PrimRose Halloween Party and scored lots and I mean lots of treaters. We also had a fun filled Family night with the neighbors that included a fire and pumpkin carving. Lots of fun stuff!

Sophie and I got to go to the school and help out in Bailey's class for there Party. They also had a costume parade that was crazy but fun to see all the little people dressed up! I had to laugh, in Bailey's class there was a boy dressed as "john McCain" and a girl dressed as "Sarah Palin". It was priceless! lol

Our family was also invited to a Party Halloween night at the Christensen's. Our friends down the street. We got dressed up once again. This time we were Cody and Kenzie (they're way better looking, let's be honest). David wore Cody's football jersey and i of course, wore Kenzie's Cheer uniform. It was fun! We ate way to much food and got way to much Candy!

Thanks to everybody for helping with costumes, and having fun Parties......

Farwell Football...!

Bridger had a "ball" playing flag football this year. He was on the Packers again and luved his coaches. He got to play quarterback a ton and can really throw the ball. I was impressed. Even David said "wow, he's got an arm" and it's harder to impress him. Anyway, until basketball. Farwell!
