Some More Sofia-isms

Me: Sofia, do you want to relax for a bit? Sofia: No, I gonna color. Me: Are you sure you don't want to relax? Sofia: Nope, I gonna color away.

Sofia is putting different pairs of shoes on. After the first pair, she looked at herself in the mirror and said, "I wook bootiful." After the second pair, she said, "I wook 'tastic." Oh Sofia. :)

She was in the living room watching tv, when she yells, "Daddy!!" I said, "Sofia, what do you need?" She says, "Nuffin. I said Daddy." Although I couldn't see her face, I imagine an eyeroll went along with that.

Sofia: Mommy, my tummy. It's broken. Me: Your tummy's broken? Sofia: Yup. Sure is.

Lee: Oops, I'm sorry. Sofia: That's okay. It's just my head.

While watching the Norad clip of Santa flying last year, Sofia says, "Go Santa Go! Ho Ho Ho!" She loves Santa "Cwause".

"Wake up Mommy! The sun is shining!" ~~ Sofia

Night 2 of Operation "No Paci" has been a success. There were some brief, but amiable, negotiations last night before bed. However, after being told again that paci had been "lost", the opponent, Sofia, conceded defeat with, "Oh Man! Ok Mommy," and went to bed without it. Victory is on the horizon. (When we decided to take away her pacifier).

Sofia is in the bathroom using the potty chair; we're in the living room. Sofia: Daddy! Lee: What? Sofia: Hi, it's me, Sofia. Could you come in here?

Lee handed Sofia a glass of milk tonight during supper. She responded with a, "Thanks pal!"

As I was bucking the drifts on the way into Milnor this morning, a little voice from the backseat said, "Mommy! You're getting cwazy!"

This morning when I dropped Sofia off at my parents, Lucille (my sister's dog) was there to greet Sofia. Sofia took off her jacket and said, "Come on Mucille, come on, wet's go to the wiving woom." I love the Elmer Fudd-speak.

"What a bootiful day, Mommy. What a bootiful day." ~~ Sofia (It's nice she can find beauty in a cloudy day like today.)

"Noooo, I can't go to jail! No way! I no wanna!" ~~ Sofia, after we told her that if she was naughty the police would take her jail. Funny to us, not so much to her.

It is with great sadness that I announce the passing of Perry the Pumpkin. He lived a full life, but when we found out his stem had broken off we knew we had to prepare for the worst. He was a loyal friend to Sofia, always there with a smile, ready to listen, and a great receiver of hugs. He now gets to go to the Great Pumpkin Patch in the sky. We'll miss you Perry! Fly on freebird! (Not a Sofia-ism, but relates to her personality of making a pumpkin her friend.)

"Mommy, I need sumfin to eat. My tummy's not full." ~~ Sofia just now while rubbing her tummy.

I forgot how much work went into building a snowman. But, if you ask Sofia, she did the work all by herself. Typical employee/manager relationship. I did all the work, she takes all the credit. :)

Sofia: Mommy, I wanna wear my new sandals. Me: You'll have to wait until we get to summer. Sofia: Oh. Well which road do we take to get there?
