Sophia
Being a kid is hard.
That's right. Being a kid is hard. You hardly ever get to do what you want to do. There is always some sort of change going on that you can't control. You can't eat strawberries for every meal. You can't play with mommy and daddy's things. You can't read your own books-you have to wait for the rotten adults to finish doing what they are doing to enjoy a good book. You have to sit in a car seat. You can't sit outside and blow bubbles all day. You have to go to bed at 8. You have to wear shoes. And there is a LOT of confusing stuff that you have to learn.

Beautiful weekend
Conversation with Stella as she was sitting on the potty(we are spending a lot of time in the bathroom since the pediatrician told me that 3 year olds don't wear Pull Ups. I would like to invite him to spend some time with us to dispute that. After 5 pairs of wet undies/pants/socks today, I think 3 year olds in Pull Ups are a great idea!)

3 Day Birthday Celebration!

Happy Halloween!
What a weekend! The Newmans came to visit and left this morning. We had an action packed weekend. Stella had her Halloween party at school on Friday, Trick or Treating on Saturday, and shopping on Sunday. Stella was really shy at first about trick or treating until she realized that she would get candy. From then on, she was a pro! The weather was pretty nasty, but we still went out for a bit. We came back home to eat dinner and had so many trick or treaters. Stella loved greeting them at the door, handing out candy, and depositing more into her own bucket. She hasn't even asked for it, so I guess she doesn't realize that it is hers to keep. We probably won't get away with that next year. Anyway, it was a successful first for us and now we are looking forward to the Brunette visit and Stella's 3rd birthday this coming weekend. Can't believe she is going to be 3. More updates to come!
