Some zoos and some boos

This weekend we had a really good time. First of all, our cousin Naomi came up to visit because one of our parents' friend is having a baby soon and they wanted to celebrate. It was lots of fun. We went to the Franklin Park Zoo and saw birdies, gorillas, ostriches (daddy hates those), but most importantly: turtles. We couldn't stop talking about turtles ALL weekend. It's our new favorite word.



We also went to our friends Evan and Lauren's Super Cool Halloween Party. It was super cool. I especially enjoyed making a frosted cookie, and then I eated it. It was yummy! Evan and Lauren's Mommy had some great decorations and things for us to do for halloween.

Boo At The Zoo

We went to the Stone Zoo on Saturday for their Boo at the Zoo day. We walked all around the zoo, got some candy on a creek trail, and enjoyed all the feline-related animals, calling them Kitty Kats! We dressed up as a tulip fairy, but everyone except mommy agreed that we looked more like a strawberry fairy!

Circus Time!

So, we went to the Barnum and Bailey circus today at the TDBankNorthBostonGarden (phew!), and had a great time. Sophie mostly enjoyed the popcorn. The humans didn't impress her too much, but she started yelling "hi kittykat!" when the ferocious tigers came out. She also liked the elephants that they had on the floor before the show.

Sophie was entirely uninterested by the climbing lady and climbing guy, but her parents thought it was very impressive and scary!

some video entertainment

This first video is of Sophie and Mommy playing a little hide-and-seek:




The second video demonstrates Sophie's on-going fascination with the household felines:

Apple picking time!

We had a great time today going out to Honey Pot Hills Farm today to do some apple picking. We loved eating a big apple straight off the tree, and taking a hayride around the whole farm. We went with our friends the Alibertis and a bunch of their friends. We also got to eat a delicious cider donut all by ourselves, and then we got to see a bunch of goats, pigs, roosters, and chickens. I especially liked the pigs and roosters. I tried to kiss the piggies but daddy wouldn't let me.

Mommy even went up into a tree to get more apples!

sophie walks for real!

Here's a super lengthy video of Sophie walking around the house. Beware of Cloverfield monster-like shakes.
