Babysitting adventure

Yesterday afternoon my sister called to see if Joe and I would want to babysit Sophie for a few hours at our house. My answer, of course, was YES! I already had dinner ready to go and it happened to be one of her favorites, pulled pork. Imagine that! We all love it!
She sat at the table with us like a big girl and did so good! It's amazing how much she has changed just in the last few months. She went on a kitty hunt (he was hiding and never came out to visit her), fed the fish with Uncle Joe and explored every square inch of our house. After dinner we took her to the park and then for a vanilla cone at McDonald's. It was so much fun! I've decided that when I have my baby, my sister and I are going to need to do baby swaps---I don't want to give up my one-on-one time with Sophie! She was having a blast running around and playing but then she found one of our DVDs. It had pictures of the characters on the front and one of the characters hair resembled my sisters. Sophie brought the DVD to me, pointed at the lady and then her lip started quivering. I think she saw it and realized that they were gone. She started bawling and saying, "Ma ma, ma ma, da da, da da..." She cried in my arms and let me comfort her but it was the most heart breaking thing I've ever seen! She loves her ma ma and da da, no doubt about that!

In other news, THIRD TRIMESTER today. Wow. This has all gone so fast!
