Cardboard House

I have a very distinct memory of being a kid and playing in a cardboard box with my brother.  It formerly housed a refrigerator, but when we inhabited it we designated it a space ship.  We played in it for days.  So, when a large box arrived at our doorstep I knew exactly what to do & it turns out that the girls did too.  What a house it is, especially after the decoration party we had!

Doctor doctor

Sophia has been really interested in playing doctor lately.  Not sure where she got it from other than the one Caillou we saw where the animals go to the doctor, but she is really into it.  It started with her telling everyone who comes over that they are sick and need to lie down on the couch.  She covers them with a blanket, tucks them in and then finds some play food and tells you, “this is mecine to make you feel better”.  It cracks me up.  Last week she added in giving shots, so the nanny gave her a carrot and she started to give her dolls and monster bear shots; later she moved onto the people.  She tells you to close your eyes and then gives you a shot.  If you ask if it will hurt she says no, but you need to close your eyes.  
Then yesterday I remembered that my sister gave me a fabric doctor’s kit that my niece had.  Well she took the stethoscope and immediately put it on my stomach and said I am listening to the baby, thump thump.  
I asked how the baby was doing and she said she needed a shot.  I said okay, but what if it hurt that baby and then she said I think she needs 2 shots and to close my eyes.  In this picture she is looking to make sure that my eyes are closed while I am taking the picture.

All I want to do is drive....

Discovering her first car!

Sophia has been maturing so much recently. She says "more" when she wants more sparkling water, her favorite drink, and repeats many phrases and words. She is also much more agile, able to climb and dismount off our bed. Today she got her first car- a red coupe! She was so excited to drive it we almost had to feed her dinner in it.
