In Honor of...Titi Ruthie.

And now a reflective post in honor of Sophia's dear Titi Ruthie aka Titi Dooginess (one of the four people who ever look at this blog.)
In a little over a week, or yesterday, according to The Knot. Com, RuthA will be marrying and leaving the nursery behind forever. Though it is truly another beginning in her life, Sophia would like to take this occasion to thank her favorite of her mother's sisters, the one with the golden hormone-induced curls. Ruthie is fluent in that most unique of languages- the elfin speech of misunderstood children and though she and Sophia are known to have their differences,even their wars of the will cannot conquer their kindred friendship. Godspeed Titi Ruthie - and Sophia looks forward to being tanner than all of the cousins you one day provide her with.


Sophia loved Titi Ruthie's graduation.


See, Ruthie loved Sophia before she even arrived...
In this picture I am officially three times the weight of Ruthie. Don't be misled by Ruthie's strained smile. She thinks Sophia is very boring right now.














Mall Fun!




For her Abuelita's birthday, Sophia took a trip to MacArthur Mall which has an amazing playplace of foam fast food! Oh the joy of climbing all over jumbo sized potato chips and lounging atop a giant relish-covered hot dog. Sophia felt very American.
Here Sophia meets Lily Strickland for the first time! I've known Lily's parents Alan and Lori for forever and we had a very exciting chance meeting in the elevator!

Better than TV...



Ahh, the front-loading washing machine. Endless hours- I mean minutes- of entertainment and facination. Given the choice between looking into the washing machine and going to Busch Gardens, Sophia would be quite torn.
