Last week of mommy time


This has been our last week of summer vacation. Sophia and I have spent some wonderful time together this week. It has been her choice of daily activities. On Monday, she chose to go to the beach. So we met cousin Abby and Auntie Sarah at Lake Elmo. We played on the huge playground and then ate some lunch. After lunch we went over to the beach and played for several hours in the sand and water. Sophia met a little girl named Anna that was also 2 and they had the greatest time chasing each other in the water.

Tuesday, it was raining outside so we headed to the Mall of America. Sophia just loves to shop. We got a couple of things for back to school and went to the rides. By the time we left the mall, it was sunny outside. So we headed home and went to the park.

On Wednesday, the sun was back so we headed to Stillwater for ice cream and the Teddy Bear Park. We ended up running into our neighbors at the park so Sophia was able to play with Lauren. I had a great time chatting with Janelle about running while the girls played in the sand and on the slides. Sophia again made another friend named Brennan who was 3. He was just a doll!

Today, we had Peyton and Gavin over to play. The kids played outside in the sprinklers. They had so much fun running through and bathing in the sun.

After the kids left, Sophia played a bit more with the neighbor girls. We had freezes and played on the swingset.

Tomorrow we are off to the State Fair! Sophia has been talking about it all week long. I can barely wait to see her go crazy with the food and the rides. Plenty more pictures to come from our first of many trips to the fair tomorrow!
