Without cable TV.
Yes, you read that right. No DVRed “Diegos” or “Doras” or “Super Whys.” No On Demand “Little Einsteins” (Leo’s new discovery—there is after all a character on the show named Leo!) or Ni Hao Kai Lan.
I know. How do we primitive pioneer people manage?
Crabbily, I assure you.
In all seriousness, we found ways to keep busy.

But I buried the lead, because hands down, the highlight of the weekend was this:
Yes it’s true. We finally got to meet the amazing Sophie. I won’t say there was instant chemistry (Leo swiftly jumped under the table at the restaurant when Sophie and her mom Amy arrived). But Leo came around quickly:
and as you can see, mere seconds later Leo was upright again and the happy couple (sorry guys, but Amy and I are planners—you heard it here first: Save the Date: 2033) were sharing scrambled eggs, Matchbox cars and Little People.
I think Ellie and Sophie enjoyed meeting too, don't you?
Just a bunch of buddies, you know, having brunch.
