Sophie has been so crafty lately. This spider hat she made at library story time last week. She wore it around all day. It makes me smile so much.
We also made some play dough the other day and she was really getting into it.
She has also been coloring like crazy. She usually wants to color as soon as she is done eating all time. She is getting pretty good. She colors one area at a time, like she is trying to color in the lines. We have been having lots of fun.
Sophie loves to help around the kitchen, I made her a little apron and we both put our aprons one when we cook. She helps pour and stir. Yesterday she even put the cookie dough in bunches and on the cookie sheet. She also helps to empty the dishwasher, she does the utensils and then helps with any pans or mixing bowls. Then of course we have to take a dancing break.
Last week Sophie and I tried to suck the last summer fun out of the year (good thing we did, it snowed yesterday) we went to the park four times and went to the zoo once. She loved the zoo. It was a pretty low key day there so we took our time just wandering around.
Her favorites were the goats because she could get right up to them. She even fed them! After feeding them we went into the area so she could pet them, I wish I had gotten pictures. She first when in and walked around to every goat and waved and said "hi." Then she went back and forth between 2 different ones petting their backs softly. When I told her it was time to go she went around to every goat again to say good bye. I am a little sad we only went once this summer before it closed but we will make sure to go back in the spring.
