Clifford the Big Red Dog

Clifford the Big Red Dog is Sophie's favorite dog. Here are some pictures of Sophie with Clifford at the outlet mall.

Trick-or-Treat!

Last night was Halloween and following American tradition, Sophie dressed up and went beggin' for candy. We met up with her best friend Coralyn and hit the streets!

How do you like my wings?

Silly Sophie

Sophie's favorite silly face:

 

She's a very flexible child...

 

Enjoying a foot sandwhich.

How do I look?

Pumpkin Carriage

For a little change this year, we decided to carve a pumpkin carriage for Sophie's princess figurines. Sophie wanted to put it on wheels and drag it around the house, but we had to veto that idea. So now it's just sitting on our coffee table...but the princesses look happy!

one seed at a time

 

Don't let the smile fool you, she hated this part.

The finished piece; that's Cinderella in the window.

 

My little ponies leading the way.

 Giddy up horsies! She would have pulled them off the table if we hadn't stopped her.

Best Friend Coralyn

Sophie has developed a special bond with a girl at her preschool, Coralyn. Apparently, the two are inseperable at school and can sometimes be the "mean girls"---"mean" at the preschool level meaning that they can be a little bossy with others, dictating what they should be playing, how to pretend, etc. But others seem to like them despite their dictatorship during playtime. And they are just a giggly duo when they're together--so cute!

Why can't two girls hold hands?!

Get on board for the cowtrain!

 

This is the first time we let her drive off with a stranger...
