So as many of you know we go out to eat sushi regularly. Bento's has become home away from home. Sophia loves to go there, and see Ricky (the sushi chef and owner) Rachael (his wife) and their kids (Jade, Paige, Nathan and baby Eli). She is not into raw fish yet but she can put away piles of pickled ginger!!!
After sushi we head outside and up the stairs of Lamp & Lantern village to view the shops. Sophia especially likes the one that has "princess dresses." It's a wedding dress shop and she can't believe how many princess dresses are in there. If you have or have had a two year old. You know they run everywhere. She runs up and down the side walk, around the fountain, back up and down the sidewalk. Which is fine we think because then she will sleep well. After a while of this you could tell her little legs were getting tired and we were afraid she was going to stumble and hit her head on the sidewalk. When she got down to the far end of the walkway, Chuck yelled "Sophia. Walk back." She immediately, turned around and started walking backwards towards us. Ricky, Chuck, and I were laughing so hard we were crying.
Okay so the picture and the story really have nothing in common, but I thought it was all good enough to share.
