The Jenkinson's aquarium!

So, yesterday was so dreary...since Sophia's swimming classes are over Chris suggested we take her to the Jenkinson's aquarium. It was pouring when we got there, but when we left it had stopped raining and we even walked on the boardwalk for a little bit! We really had fun!

Here is a very rare blue lobster. they said the blue is caused by some type of mineral deficiency. every one in 1-4 million lobsters is blue. It was pretty cool!

Daddy and his girl!

Sophia showing off her first "big girl" ponytail!

"You can't contain me...I'm at the beach!"

We have a LOT going on at camp sansone!!!

First of all, we have a contract on our townhouse! YAHOOOOOO! It's been such a long time coming but it's finally here! The closing date is scheduled for January 15th...the day after Sophia's second birthday! (I can't believe she is going to be two already!)

This is what I walked into this morning when I went to get Sophia out of her crib today!

"If Obama wins, there goes my college fund!"

"Mommy, I'm scared! I just saw someone voting for Obama!"

I bribed her with lollipops so she was trying to give me her wet lollie stick! LOL!

Sophia at her first presidential election! notice her red, white and blue...she's so patriotic! I'll have you all know that I was in red, white and blue too! white shirt, jeans and these adorable red patent peep-toes! LOVE them! ;)

Halloween 2008--- our sweet little strawberry girl!

I need to tell you all that Sophia INSISTED on wearing those pink crocs! they are all she ever wants to wear! She calls them "cocks"--which is really pretty funny... especially when we are out somewhere and she starts yelling, "cocks! cocks!" while pointing at her shoe! LOL! the looks we get are HYSTERICAL!

the Trick or treat crew...minus Sara, she's taking the picture! 

Sophia and her buddy, James.
