Princesses Wu: May 2009

Wow a LOT has happened since I last updated. I have been crazy busy with growing, talking, and lots of outings. First, I moved into a new bed! Yep, I'm officially out of the crib and in a toddler bed. I'm also speaking in a lot of sentences now. "I do it myself" was the first whole sentence I learned a couple of months ago (and I still LOVE to say it since I want to do everything on my own), but now I can have a conversation quite well. Some of my favourite lines are:

"Mommy, where are you? Oh there you are!"
"Sophie, it's ok, no cry. Naomi here." (Mommy always says this but now I copy her and say it with my name instead.)
"Oh my gosh!"
"What are you doing?!" (but it sounds more like "Whayoudowee?!")
"Ew yuck. Ew gross!"

It was a special day in late April when Daddy and Mommy took me out in the morning...

and we saw The Wiggles again!!! I'm getting to be a regular with the concert crowd.

Here are The Wiggles "getting strong".

The entire gang--The Wiggles, Henry the Octopus, Captain Feathersword, Dorothy the Dinosaur, and Wags the Dog!

I was so into the music that I crowded up to the balcony area with some pushy boys to get a better view of the fab four.

After the Wiggles concert, we were running really late for lunch so Daddy took us to get some food fast (read: fast food). Yep, that's right, much to Mommy's dismay I had McDonald's for the first time! But it wasn't anything special for me, just something called a "hambigga".

Proof that I am Mommy's daughter.

I had another playdate with Jamie and Jet a few weeks ago. This is all of us "playing together." Which basically means we play in the same area but not necessarily with one another.

Jet is so little and I like to protect him.

Check out my camera skills.

Sophie is such a happy baby and wakes up smiling 90% of the time. :)

Ready to take Mommy out to lunch.

Happy Mother's Day!

I'm in a sports class now and I love it even though I'm not a good listener. Here I am learning how to play hockey.

Proof that I'm the naughtiest one in the class. Mommy doesn't understand why I ignore authority. I think it's just part of being a kid!

Again, not listening. Hee hee.

Our family band--Daddy on guitar, me on drums, and Sophie is our backup dancer!

For my belated birthday gift, Auntie Nat and Uncle Brian bought us tickets to go see Yo Gabba Gabba (one of my fave shows) in concert. They came all the way from the US, wherever that is! Check out how cool they are below. Even my parents enjoy watching YGG as much as I do!

YOOOO.... GABBA GABBA!!!

Foofa, Muno, DJ Lance, Plex, Toodee, and Brobee!

Ready to rock out!

Another one of DJ Lance and the gang.

The Wiggles are great, but Yo Gabba Gabba rocks my socks!

The music is so contagious, I just can't stop dancing to it!

Shake shake shake shake shake shake!

There's a party in my tummy! So yummy so yummy! There's a party in my tummy!

And what did I think of Yo Gabba Gabba?

AWESOME!!!

A self-portrait. I love playing with Mommy's camera and snapping away at myself. Check out my luscious lips.

Here I am trying to smile for myself. Not flattering but Mommy thinks it's cute.

In playgroup another girl was wearing a Cinderella costume so I insisted on Snow White. Life doesn't get better than this, play-doh in my hands and all dolled-up!

Sophie had her first taste of solids when she turned 6 months old last week. Look how tiny she looks in my highchair!

"What's this rubbery thing doing in my mouth?"

"Hmm... interesting texture, delectable taste..."

"More please!"

Last week my future school had an Open Day for parents and children to attend. It was basically just an intro to the school, the facilities, and the classrooms. Here I am dressed and ready to go!

Here I am with Mommy walking to the school. It was so fun exploring the different classrooms and seeing all the big kids in class. I can't wait until Kindergarten!
