Funny Sophie

Classic Sophie moment.....

Coming out of the doctor's office last week after having Luc's 6 week check up, Sophie ran ahead and yelled back....."let me push the button on the alligator"!!!! Alligator I said, it is not an alligator!!!! Ooops, I mean calculator!!!!!! What she really meant to say was ELEVATOR!!!!
The few people around us thought it was very funny!

Friday is Library day

Bonjour,
We are off to the library soon. Mummy has been taking Luc and I to the Library every Friday as we go to "Storytime" and then afterwards I get to pick out 10 new books for the week. Storytime is great. A very nice lady reads out 4 stories to lots of kids and we all sit on cushions and then afterwards we do "craft" and get to take whatever we make home. It's good fun and today my friend Ella is coming too....yippee.

On Wednesday I had my kindergarten orientation day. I didn't know what orientation meant and Mummy said it just means, "going to have a look at my new kindy that I will go to after christmas"!!!! I don't know why people can't just say that instead of using big words all the time. Nanny uses lots of big words too. She teaches me words like, ridiculous and astonishing!!!! I use ridiculous all the time but I have forgotten already what astonishing means!
Anyway, my new kindy is going to be great fun. I am going to be going on Tuesday's and Friday's (all day) from February next year. Mummy said she will be a little sad when I start going to kindy. I'm not sure why as I would have thought that she needs the break from me constantly wanting to paint /play with playdough/make things etc and all the mess that goes with it as apparantly (another one of Nanny's words!!!) we are going to do LOTS of craft things at kindy......yay, yay!!

Bye Bye

Being 4!

Bonjour,
Well I am into my 3rd week of being 4 and so far it is my favourite age!! I had a great birthday. I went to church in the morning with Nanny and Grandpa and then in the afternoon we had birthday cake and I rode my NEW bike!! Yes, I got a brand new bike and it was a big surprise. It is purple and has streamers on the handlebars and Daddy says it is by the coolest bike on the street! It even has a seat on the back for me to take my "babies" for a ride! I also got some great new clothes, a new talking baby (no not Luc) a toy baby, some "Dora the Explorer" things, some new books and colouring in books as well.

Then on Tuesday at Playgroup I had a little party with all my friends. Mummy made a great "Dora the Explorer" cake and it tasted very yummy as well. My favourite part was blowing out the candle and everyone singing "Happy Birthday to me"!!

That's all for now,
Love Sophie (now 4 )

Last day being 3 years old!

Bonjour,
Tomorrow is my 4th birthday. I am very, very happy to be turning 4 although I am not so sure Mummy is as happy. Today she said to me she would like me to stay 3!!!!!! I just looked at her and said..."Mummy, you know I have to grow up sometime"!!!!!!

Well, it has been fun being 3. I learnt lots of things this past year. I learnt many, many more words and I learnt how to talk non stop. I went on holiday to Hawaii to see Memere, Pepere, Ginette, John and Justin and had a really great time. I learnt to bake cookies with Nanny. I played with Jacky boy lots and lots. I enjoyed playing dress ups all the time. I had lots of fun with my friends at playgroup and Buzy kidz. I got really good at drawing and painting. I became really good at swimming and loved the beach and pool. So many more things as well, that I can't really remember all of them right now. Best of all, last month I met my new baby brother and I just love him so much.

OK, so tonight Daddy is making me my favourite dinner of lamb cutlets, salad and potatoes....because I am never, ever, ever going to be 3 years old again....oh yeah, I get green olives as well. Yum, Yum. I will be back soon to tell you all what 4 feels like. I think i am going to really really like it!

Good bye 3!
Love Sophie

More of baby Luc

Bonjour,
Well, MY blog is in danger of being taking over by baby Luc!!!! I can't help but talk about him and show more photos of him because he is just SO CUTE!!! Not only that he is the most interesting not to mention time consuming thing happening in my life at the moment. But don't worry, I am not jealous. I still get lots and lots of attention not to mention all the "big sister" presents I have received.....how cool is that, presents for being a big sister!!!!! I think I better relax a bit on how often I ask to hold him as I think I am going to drive my Mummy and Daddy crazy because I ask to cuddle him at least 745 times a day! Oh yeah and my Mummy's best friend had a baby boy ...Harry.....12 days after Luc so he already has a "best buddy"!!!(apart from me of course).
Oh yeah...in other news, Daddy is having a birthday tomorrow he is going to be 40!!!!!Wow, that seems like such a lot but I am so happy that he has a 4 in his number because in 10 more sleeps I am going to be 4!!!!!! I am very excited but trying to be calm and let daddy enjoy his birthday first because apparently it is a very big and important number. Daddy is having a party at the house but I am being sent off to Nanny and Grandpa's as no kids are coming to this party. I don't mind, doesn't sound like too much fun to me if no kids are coming. I mean, what is the point????
Bye Bye

Show girl!!!

Bonjour,
I had such a great time at the "Royal Show" with daddy the other day. Apart from getting caught in the rain and ending up really really wet and cold, it was still lot's of fun. Daddy was really sorry he hadn't listened to Mummy's advice about taking a change of clothes for me in case we got wet. Daddy said, nah, we won't get wet! Sometimes Daddy's really need to listen to Mummy's because they do seem to know about everything!!!!!
So I rode a pony, patted a pig, lamb, baby goat (Daddy said it is a kid????, I said, it is not a kid, I am a KID, but once again he didn't listen!!) I won a doll by putting balls into an open clowns mouth and I went on some rides. Then daddy bought me the "Dora the Explorer" show bag with lots of goodies in it including a backpack and a skipping rope.
So I have also been helping Mummy and daddy with baby Luc. I am really good at giving him cuddles and kisses. He is soooooo cute. Today I went to "Buzy Kidz" and I showed him to all my friends. I am a proud BIG sister!!
Love Sophie

I'm a BIG SISTER!!!!!

Bonjour,
Baby is here. He was born on Friday morning. I am a big sister and I am sooooooo happy! It's a baby BOY!.... and I am Ok with him being a he and not a she, really I am!! His name is Luc Daniel!! He is just so cute and tiny and Mummy and Daddy say he looks just like I did when I was born. I just want to hold him all the time and play with him but it is hard because he does seem to sleep a lot and eat a lot which doesn't leave much time for playing with me! Although Mummy did say he doesn't sleep in the night time at all.......hmmm, thats strange, that's when you are supposed to sleep I said, but Mummy said baby's take a little while to figure that out!
Mummy came home from the hospital on Sunday with baby and I love to go into his room and stare at him in his bed and sometimes I sing him little songs and I think he really likes my songs even though I make up all the words.
So I have been having lots of fun playing with Daddy while Mummy was in the hospital and tomorrow he is taking me to the "Royal Show"!!! We are going to see baby animals and go on some rides for little kids and then get some show bags. It will be great fun. Mummy and Luc are going to stay at home and I am sure I will be happy to come home again to see them!
Love Sophie (the BIG sister!)
