Tooth Fairy Pt 2
We are trying again with the Tooth Fairy. I gave Sophia all of her stuff back including her tooth for the Tooth Fairy. She showed me everything again. I asked her if she thought the Tooth Fairy would show up tonight as I didn't think she was on the agenda for the evening as it was a day late. She said, "Yes.." Of course I had to plant it in her brain that she might not show up. I said, "What then?" She said, "Well, I will be mad." Then I asked if I should check if the Tooth Fairy came in the middle of the night and she said, "Okay." I then asked if I should just pretend to be the Tooth Fairy and leave a dollar or keep it real? At first she said yes leave a dollar then she thought about it and said, "No, keep it real mom." I asked her if she thought the Tooth Fairy wore a tutu and she said, "Yeah!" (duh!) "What color?" I asked. She says,"Pink, of course! And it is a football player - I saw the movie!" Thank you Hollywood and Dwayne Johnson for keeping the magic alive!
The Tooth Fairy
Sophia lost her third tooth yesterday. She prepared a letter, drew a picture of the tooth fairy with her sisters - Little, Medium and Large Fairy and also gave her a princess button/pin. Well, I was "discovered" playing the role of the tooth fairy as she woke up last night but pretended to sleep. This morning, I was grilled/drilled about being the tooth fairy. I told her I went to check and she hadn't come yet so I helped her out. She gave me back my dollar, demanded all her stuff back and we are trying again tonight. She said, "I saw her foot steps, you should have waited." I love her!

Introductions Please...
My name is Angie and we have a daughter Sophia, 7 years old, who is a total handful..I have been documenting stories for years about her antics and finally have decided to put them in a blog. I get stopped all the time by people who tell me they go on FB just to see what she has been up to lately. I hope you enjoy them as much as everyone else does. :)

Did that REALLY happen?
Sophia loves our puppy Gizmo so much which is wonderful as she has been terrified of animals up until we got him. We have been letting him sleep at the foot of our bed for the past few nights because he has been barking at bedtime. Sophia wanted him to sleep with her last night so we pushed her bed to the wall so he wouldn't be kicked out accidentally as she is a rough sleeper and got them both to bed. 30 minutes later he is barking because it is early for him and he wasn't ready for bed. So of course this wakes her up and she brings him downstairs. I tell her "I will bring him up when everyone is ready for bed that way he won't bark if he hears us downstairs. I pinkie promise." So it is time for bed and Gizmo is passed out under the coffee table. Since he is so asleep, I put him in his crate and go to bed. I want him sleeping in his crate really. Not everyone's bed. At 1:15 am, Sophia storms in my bedroom wakes us up yelling, "YOU DIDN'T PUT GIZMO IN MY BED!! AND YOU PINKIE PROMISED!!!!" I don't remember what I said or how I got her back to bed but she got there without the dog. I asked Kevin if he remembered that and he said.."That really happened?? I thought I dreamed that.." More like nightmare..Needless to say, I am a little wiped out today. Thank you Sophia..

Corn in the Cop
Sophia was
begging me to make 'Corn in the Cop' tonight. She asked Steven if he
could eat that and then she gives a demonstration of munching on corn on the cob
She said, "If you can't, mom will cut the corn off the cop for you." :) Poor Cop..

Yes, No..Maybe so..
On the way to
Steven's band concert, Sophia informed me it was "Yes Day". Then she
starts asking questions. "Can we go out to eat Mexican food for
dinner?" No, "Can we stop on the way home and get me some
candy?" No, then she says, "This isn't working out. Tomorrow is
"No Day" and THAT is when you are SUPPOSED to say no."

Money, money, money..
Sophia asked me
this weekend when we were going to win the Lottery. We don't play the lottery
so I am not sure how she got that in her head. She wants to spend some money
I think...

We aren't in Kansas!
It is going to
be an interesting night. Tornado alarms, hail, severe thunderstorms..oh my! I

is turning into Steve Martin from the Jerk.."All I need is this blanket.
All I need is this blanket and this stuffed animal...All I need is.." You
get the picture. Now her teddy bear is screaming for his life..yep..gonna be a
long night..

The Voice..sort of
Sophia
has been pretending she is on the Voice when she gets in the shower. She
does her interview with Carson Daly and speaks to the camera about her
aspirations. Then she starts singing in the shower. Then you hear her
say.."BAM!..Christina turns around"..and she starts belting her song
out more. "BAM!..Cee-Lo turns around"..more hard core singing, "BAM!..Adam turns around" and so on until the "grey
one..(Blake) turns around".. She converses with them all but ultimately
chooses Christina. She even does the exit interview about how she felt during
the performance. Now..if only she could sing...;)

Goodnight - no really..GOODNIGHT!
I am going to
preface this with the statement that I love my children so much. Both of my kids have
no concept of 'mom needs her sleep'. Steven wakes me up at 1:45 am telling me he
got a voicemail that was just then showing up on his phone about a job
interview. (he has been looking for a job for awhile) I am excited but exhausted..and WHY on earth are you awake looking
at your phone at that hour?!
At 4:30 am, Sophia shows up telling me her stuffed
animals are trying to push her out of the bed and she got a bloody lip.
REALLY!? Love those children..really, I do. -.-

Winnie in the Pooh?
Sophia got some
markers from a classmate today that had Winnie the Pooh wrapping on them. She
removed the wrappers so they were plain. I asked her why and she said, "I
don't like Winnie and the Pooh". I said "It is Winnie the Pooh"
and she said, "Well, I don't like Winnie in the Pooh". LOL! nevermind..I
am sure Winnie doesn't like being in the Pooh either..

1st Tooth, Best Tooth
Sophia FINALLY
lost her first tooth! It took forever to convince her to pull it out. It has
been loose for weeks. She said she didn't want to lose her sweet tooth. Such a
cutie pie! No such luck - that sweet tooth wasn't the only one apparently. Chocolate and sugar are 2 of the 4 food groups right??
