a tale of Sophie.......

just a quick note. All this hub bub about my visitor and I neglected to tell a funny story.
When my friends were dropping off Naynay we were sitting around chatting about the birds and I was asked "do they talk" So, as I was going threw my spiel about how Sophie won't annunciate her words and Zoey's hello sounds like a wolf whistle ............ yada yada yada...............





Sophie, clear as a bell, says "Hello!" Then as soon as Leslie (the friend) says,rather excitedly "she said hello!!" Miss Sophie tops it off with.............. wait for it..........












step up! Thats my girl!!
Talk about talking randomly and only when it will have the most value! Well at least now I can say yes she talks.

That is great! Here she has been holding out on you all this time. But little did you know she would stage her debut perfectly!

Smart girl

Way to go Sophie! What a genius! That couldn't have been any better. She's like, "Dad, did you forget about my hello, and step up?" "Don't tell the company I can't talk!"

tiki wont talk in other peoples presence, so they give me the "yea right!" look when they ask if he talks, and i say yes and he wont. why is that the first think people ask? he does other cute stuff too, but they want to hear him talk. i dont care if he ever talks to someone else cause i know he talks to me, but he mostly talks to himself.
