Scenes from Christmas Week
December 27, 2009
On Christmas Eve, the whole gang came over to play. We went sliding at the park, had a big dinner (except me, of course), and open oodles of presents. I got more princess Barbies than you can throw a stick at!

Then, on Christmas Day, I learned that Santa actually considered me a good girl. Guess the cookies paid off!

The next day, we went up to Ginter Botanical Garden to see the big light display. They had a fantastic maze full of lights! Mom chased me around. I wiped out a lot, but I was having so much fun it didn’t bother me.

And Playing the Part of Narrator…
December 12, 2009
I usually don’t allow Dad to film my narratives, but I let him get away with a little subterfuge this time. Santa co-stars.
Visiting Santa, Part 2
December 12, 2009
OK, this time I came to the jolly guy bearing homemade cookies. I even told him, in the faintest of whispers, what I wanted for Christmas. Here’s hoping I made the necessary favorable impression, because I’m definitely not coming back again this year.

Girl in the Mirror
December 11, 2009
I got caught by the camera mugging for the mirror at the neighborhood Christmas party. Guess I had a little too much nog.
Sophie, With Your Nose So Bright…
November 28, 2009
I have a cold; my nose is all red and runny. You could even say it glows.
Visiting Santa, Part 1
November 28, 2009
I went to the toy store today to discuss my gift interests for the coming holiday. Unfortunately, the big guy in the red suit didn’t do much for me. This is the closest I got to him. I’m thinking I might need to go back in a couple weeks and clarify my wish list, just in case he didn’t get a good vibe from my visit.

This Little Sophie Went to Market
November 21, 2009
Every Saturday, I like to go to the famers’ market to play with the chickens and rabbits. I don’t mind the cookies and ice cream, either.

Sliding into Autumn
November 8, 2009
Leaf me alone!

Call me “The Reluctant Princess”
October 31, 2009
I really didn’t have time for photos on Halloween this year. This is all I could spare time for — after all, there was free candy for the taking! (Unfortunately for Mom, I required that she carry me up to every house in the neighborhood.)
