Taking Care of Daddy

Yesterday Jimmy was working in his office and Sophie came in for a quick visit. She looked down at his feet and saw a two toe size hole in his black sock. She pointed at it and said "Luuke, luuke" (look, look!) Then she disappeared and came back about ten minutes later with a clean black replacement sock.

Jimmy told me this story a few hours after it happened and the pieces suddenly came together. Earlier in the day, I walked into the front room and the contents of the laundry basket I had sitting there was spread all over the room. Usually Sophie doesn't touch the laundry baskets but she had a mission and she worked hard to find her daddy a sock that matched and didn't have a hole.

She is at such a fun age right now. The end of last week I started potty training her and she looks so adorable in her little panties. She has Dora and My Little Pony ones. You other mom's know what I'm talking about when I say how cute our little ones bums look when they first start wearing underwear. She's only had one "bad" accident and those panties got tossed and she quickly got a bath. Other than that she seems to be getting the hang of it. She has a little sticker chart and she loves to put the stickers on once she goes.

We've been going on walks every morning and she is doing so well at being content while we go. She used last about 10 minutes before she wanted out but now she's letting me get in a good workout without any complaints. Now that the weather is cooling off we are stopping at the park after and playing for awhile. (anyone in the neighborhood who wants to come- we get to the park about 10:30, the one across from the school)

The sock story: So sweet! That is so cute!

I totally know what you mean about little tiny bums in panties - too CUTE!!! You just want to squeeze them all the time!

What a cutie! Ah. I remember when Sadie was so sweet like that. She just turned three, and dang. She's like a mean little cat.
