Sofia - 2 1/2 Years

Sofia is growing up too fast! In just a few short months, she will be three and going off to preschool (hopefully!). She is biggest helper for me during the day and is Giuliana's other mama. She most definitely is Simon's mini me, down to expressions! I look at her during the day sometimes and I see him. Pretty incredible...Mom and Dad gave Sofia ballet lessons for Christmas. She LOVES them! Every Wednesday, she jumps up and down when I pull out her leotard, tutu and ballet shoes! The class is fabulous! The one thing I don't like about is that it is in a room that doesn't have a look through window. The other classes at the studio have the glass. But, they intentionally put the toddlers in this room, so that they can focus and not worry about parents. I have to say, it works! The kids pay attention and I have noticed that Sofia is much more obedient and listens to me more...Thanks mom and dad!

Here are a few things we love about her:

-She is girly all the way! No tee-shirts for her. Bring on the frilly/girly/swingy shirts and dresses
-She still loves story time and all of her new friends here
-LOVES Giuliana, but also loves to torture her
-Can count to 40, knows her alphabet, and her numbers (to 10 in Spanish)
-Practices her ballet spins all day
-Plays independently with her toys; loves imaginary play
