Prince Charming

They seem so angelic when they're asleep.

Fluffy the cat.

Ava Joanie HAD to have the "fur real" kitty. She has been watching way too much tv, and has been brainwashed by all the commercials. She recites them to me verbatim whenever we come across a product that she recognizes. But that's another story.

"Chucky"...(um, no...that's not it...oh yeah,) "Fluffy" scares me. While I was wrapping it, it kept meowing in the box and opening and shutting it's eyes. Luckily, it was quiet after I placed it under the tree. Ava is absolutely thrilled. I guess that's what it's all about.

Grammie Joan, thank you for all the wonderful presents! Ava also loves her bathrobe and watch...and wore the shirt and sweater set yesterday. Victor wore his new jeans (it's a miracle!)

I am thankful that while Fluffy can move and meow and blink "her" eyes...she doesn't make real crap.

Dance with Me

Are you charming?

Sometimes it's challenging for a girl to look hot, mashed up against wood paneling. However, Ava Joan pulls it off. She gets dressed to the nines whenever we go out to eat...even if it's just a pizza joint. Notice the red fingernails. She will stop watching Sponge Bob, mid episode, for a quick manicure.

Victor, on the other hand, well, what's a little pizza sauce on a shirt already covered in various stains? He is doing better, post op, but his throat is still very sore. He didn't eat pizza, but was glad to get out of the house. He came home and demolished some icecream. Today, larger nostrils are getting operated on, and smaller nostril said he would help in the recovery process. Awww. Father and Son sinus surgery...kind of warms your heart.

Ice cream for breakfast...viewer discretion advised

Off to the Ballet, dah-ling.

Ava has a field trip to see the "Nutcracker Suite". How fun is that????? Can you tell that she feels absolutely beautiful in her new clothes? I can't wait to hear all about it!
