Scooby-Doo!

Annabelle just loves Scooby Doo. It is very funny to watch her play right now. She is deep in her own imagination. Mostly she pretends with her Fred and Daphene action figures! "Here Mommy, you play Fredie, I'll be Daphene." She gets the Scooby theme song in her head and will just sing it out, loud and proud for anyone who will listen. :-) Makes my heart smile.

For quite some time it has been a bed time requirement for AB to hear a story about Annabelle and the Gang. Something to the affect of Fredie getting in trouble (tied to a chair with rope-is her request most of the time) and Annabelle rescues him in the end!! Tonight at bed time, again the request was made and I told her a Scooby story. After she told me and Nick to sit on the step to her room while she told us a story. We were entertained by TWO Scooby Stories and they were wonderful! Both involved the quote, "Geepers! Where's Fredie!" (says-Daphene)... It was so sweet listening to her tell a tale. We hid our chuckles well and looked on with adoring eyes. Nick can't get over how smart she is. She can retell the stories like a pro, embellishing here and there to make the story her own.

We had no idea what we were missing before being parents!!! What an entertaining Monday night!!
