Sophie Says...Bratz dolls

Just got back from a business trip and Sophie was telling me all about a Bratz doll she got for her birthday and said:

"They are called Bratz Dolls dad. But not because they are brats sometimes like Malorie and Coltin. It's just their name."

She gets and extra $100 in my will someday.

This little Sophie Says insert is a little different than the others because this one made me realize that I should probably go on a diet soon. Everyone knows that kids do not have a filter, they just say whatever comes to mind. So here is my sweet conversation with my Sophie monkey. First of all let me say that we were hugging and having a very tender moment when she pulled her head back from my belly and looked right at it and said:

"Whoa, look at you."

Then she put her hands on my stomach and pushed in and said:

"Daddy, your belly is puffy."

Puffy? Puffy? Well I never.......

Guess I will have to stop posting all of my favorite treats and instead talk about different vegetables I like to eat. Just doesn't seem as exciting. However, my dear friend Linda Hansen is doing a bit of weight loss of her own right now and is a great example to me. So I guess I better try to step it up a little bit and get rid of some of this "puff".

So today I am sending love out to all my "puffy" friends.

Your friend,

Jaron

Sophie Says.....

Yesterday we were sitting in church and Sophie was itching her arm like crazy down on the inside of her arm by her elbow. She gets a bit of eczema there and it itches terribly when she does. I immediately pulled out some lotion from our bag and put it on my little one's arm. She said it still itched so I had her bend her arm and pull it up to her chest so the inside of the arm was shut (does that even make sense, good grief?)

In a very loud voice Sophie says:

"Hey Dad, Look! My arm looks just like a bum."

Then she starts pinching her arm like a grandma would pinch a grandchilds cheek and says loudly:

"Oh you cute little bum, you are just a cutie pie."

How can she not know that she is so dang funny????

Yet again Sophie has managed to produce another great comment for the blog. A few days ago Teresa was telling Sophie that she needed to stop playing in her room and start getting ready for music class. Here is the last part of the conversation:

Teresa: (growing imaptient) Sophie I said you need to get ready now or you will be late!!

Sophie: Wow, you're in a mood.

She just has a way with words!
