But then I was like, "whoa." There's no way I could write a post long enough that could do justice to all that.
So they say a picture is worth a bunch of words, or something, so I'll just toss a bunch of those at you! It'll be cool, really.
So not too long ago, we went to the zoo! It was really my second time, but this time I got to ride the Merry Go Round! I know it looks like I wasn't too sure at first, and to be honest I wasn't. But right away I was all like, you know what? This is awesome!

Mama and Dada's work rented the whole place out, and it was pretty sweet let me tell you. We went into a rainforest where birds were all over, and I was cracking up!

AND I was "good," as Mama and Dada say, so I got a new pair of BAGAS!!!! (Mama and Dada call them sunglasses, but my word is cooler, don't you think?)

This next set of pictures is what an artist would call a variation on a tryptych. Yeah, I've been reading and stuff!! But this is just to give you an idea of how I party lately.
I like to make sure I'm sporting my hoodie, and I get all serious about my sippy, you know?

And then I get all like, "yo, wuddup mama and dada?"
 |
| From Kickin It With Sophie |
But really, deep down inside I was all like, "you know, this is cool . . . but it's missing something . . . "
And then it hits me.
BAGAS!!!!!!

So not long after we went to this MASSIVE party called Play Day at State Farm Park. There were huge rides, and I went down a massive slide with Dada! There were also games, and I was awesome right off the bat and won a prize!
Guess what I won??
BAGAS!!!!

I went on a pony ride with Dada, who had to walk in the mud, LOL!!!

I got to feed some ducks, which was totally cool.

And then these goats totally rushed me. Not cool, crazy goats!!
 |

So THEN we went on a choo-choo! I'll just tell you up front, there are no BAGAS! in this part of the photo montage. I apologize.

The choo-choo ride took us to a place called Chicago, and it was CRAZY! There were all sorts of people and buildings and cars and noises and smells and sounds . . . whew! We had to chill out, so we sat and had a little bite at some awesome pizza place called Gino's East. I rocked it with some bread sticks and cheese pizza!

THEN we checked out the city. It was spectacular!

There was a BIG bean!

And Dada took a portrait of us.

We went and played in the water too! There were rockin' towers of water that created a cool little play pool!

After our adventure at Millennium Park, we went to a place called The Chicago Diner. Mama and Dada said it was their favorite vegetarian place in all of Chicago. I had pot-stickers and mac and cheeze (it wasn't made with real cheese, how cool is that?) and some of Mama and Dada's food too! It was a total blast, and everyone there thought I was the coolest veggie girl ever! Well, everyone except some crabby patty lady sitting next to me, but you know what lady? Take off, because I was having the time of my life!!

You'd think that would be all a crazy lady like me could handle, but the next day we went to this place where there was nothing but fish! Amazing Rays, Sharks, Clown Fish, Seahorses, and everything! We went to a show called Fantasea at the Shedd. I was a little crazy before the show (of course), but once it started I was all like, whoa!
 |
| From Kickin It With Sophie |
We saw dolphins, a red-tailed hawk, beluga whales, and even these totally awesome sea lions!

After a good nap, we rounded out our trip with a trip to Navy Pier. We met some of our cool friends there, Mr. Todd and Ms. Sara, and their little cool kids Oliver and Emerson. Since the kids were in charge, we were all like CHOO-CHOO TRAIN!
 |
| From Kickin It With Sophie |
And then, we were all like FERRIS WHEEL!
 |
| From Kickin It With Sophie |
And, then we were all like
MERRY
GO
ROUND!!!!!!
 |
| From Kickin It With Sophie |
Then we decided to push it hardcore. We were all like SPEEDBOAT.
And about mid-way through that trip, well . . . I wasn't so sure this was the best decision.
 |
| From Kickin It With Sophie |
But you know what? It was an awesome decision, because it was a BLAST. We had dinner after that, more awesome breadsticks, and some yummo stuff called gelatto. And I got to play on the patio with my friends and enjoy this new city.
 |
| From Kickin It With Sophie |
You know what? I think we'll be back, because it was pretty cool.
