This past weekend our Goddaughter, Ally, stayed with us. Her Mom and Dad (Lisa's brother Dan and his wife Courtney), went to California on a belated trip to celebrate their tenth anniversary. We all had a lot of fun, and Sophia loved having Ally here. They played, they laughed, and enjoyed watching TV with each other, except when Sophia feels the need to block everyone's view and stand right in front of it. We went to Chuckie Cheese with Lisa's brother Dave, his wife Beccy, their kids; Grace and baby Katie, and Ally's brother Sean (who was staying with them). The kids thought it was great, I, on the other hand, would like to punch Chuckie... a kid's dream, a parents nightmare. Sophia was so excited Ally was here, when she woke up from her nap, instead of yelling mommy or daddy, she yelled ALLY! They played in the snow and had fun being pulled on sleds around the block.
