Today was a fun day. We woke up early with Sophia yelling that she had to go pee. So I took her and then James woke up and started yelling pee. (What one does, the other has to do too). So I got James up and sat him on the potty and what did he do right away...Pee in the Potty! Now, this was not the first time he has done this but it is the first time that he woke up and yelled that he had to pee. I was so proud of him.
Jim had to work today so I took the kids to Holy Spirit's Easter Egg Hunt. It was fun. The kids were limited to 10 eggs which is fine with me because they don't eat candy anyway. The Fishers Fire Department and EMT came with a ladder truck and ambulance. The kids were WAY more excited about this than the Easter Bunny and Egg Hunt. Sophia immediately went up to every EMT and said, "Do you know my Daddy? My last name is Beeson." It was very cute. Then she went up to every firefighter and said, "My grandpa is a firefighter." It was DARLING!! I took pictures so be looking for them on snapfish at some point.
We then went to see Jim at work. A nurse held the kids up to a patient's room while Jim worked on them. The patient was really sick too. James was in awe and Sophia was clapping and giddy just to see him work. You would have thought Santa was in the room! Again she announced that she is going to be a baby doctor. Sophia then showed all the nurses her boo-boo on her tongue (she bit her tongue yesterday when her chin landed on James' head). James had to show the nurses his boo-boo on his head from 2 weeks ago. Sophia helped out by picking through his hair like a mommy monkey. Again...DARLING!
Sophia also started asking very good questions lately. She has asked things like:
What makes a sandwich?
What's in a pretzel and how can we make one?
Where does food go after you swallow it?
What makes glue sticky?
Daddy, if you run 14 miles, how will you get back?
Then she asked the BIG question...."Daddy (I was not home at the time) how is Jacob going to come out of Mommy's tummy?" Jim told her how Jacob will come out and luckily we have always used correct anatomical name for our body parts so that wasn't that difficult to answer. Then she asked, "Is it like pooping?" (Where does she come up with these!?! She just turned 3!!!) She then wanted to clarify all of the different holes in the body and what function each one served. Then followed all of the questions like, "Will it hurt Mommy?", "Will Jacob cry?" etc. I know I am her mom and I think she is awesome but what amazing questions for such a little girl to ask!
