Soccer

I'm sure you will be seeing plenty more soccer pictures. Club started up again today and Max will be back to his two evening practices a week and weekend tournaments. You will also start seeing volleyball pictures! Max has never played but is going to give it a shot this season. He will have volleyball practice after school Monday through Friday and Saturdays for the month of March. Ouch.

Dinner

Sofia just had spaghetti for dinner, a favorite dish.
She says innocently, "Mommy, hands dirty".
This was an understatement considering it looked as if she had spaghetti sauce eyeshadow on.
I cleaned her hands and face and as I was walking to the sink Sofia says,
"I feel dirty".
I reply, "...I just wiped your hands".
"I FEEL DIRTY".
I walked over to Sofia to see why she still felt dirty and realized I had misunderstood her....
"Floor Dirty" and "Feel Dirty" sound very similar.

Valentine's Weekend

Not only did we go to the beach, but we went to Sofia's favorite park at the beach. She had a blast on the swings, Dan pushes her SO much higher than I ever have...it was a great lesson for me. I was nervous the entire time but as Sofia would scream, "higher, higher", I realized I needed to just let go. She was having so much fun.

Sofia loves playing on the bars.

Beach Fun

Sofia is slowly falling in love with the beach. I try to take her at least once a week and, whether intentional or not, we always seem to end up drenched.

Sofia really likes building sand castles and last weekend she actually let Dan take a nap!

Running Track

Max played Brentwood at Brentwood this week. The soccer field is surrounded by a track and Sofia loved running back and forth...of course the runners didn't look very happy.
