I’m feeling more like myself now. Thank goodness! I’ve been scrambling to catch up with everything that I’ve let go while I was feeling the brunt of the illness, like laundry but as busy as I was, I still found the time to give my girls a lovely little bubble bath this afternoon. Well, mainly because my youngest decided to try peanut butter and yogurt as a hair tonic but in any case, they went off into the tub and something amazing happened.
My daughter, Victoria, hit the water and she suddenly decided that she was no longer a little girl but a snarling, roaring water beast. She spent most of her bath going back and forth between terrorizing the figures in her Dora the Explorer bathtime playset with her inhuman howls and laughing hysterically at how slick she was at fooling us all into thinking she was a monster.

Fear me, for I am Monsterface! *RAWR*

As you can see, Alia is quite impressed with Victoria’s acting skills.
There is little on this Earth that’s as amusing as watching a child discover the magic of make believe. It gives us a glimmer into a past we’ve often forgotten long ago, filled with infinite possibilities and wonderment. What a precious gift my child has given me today.

Nothing lightens the mood like little kids! It’s the baby brigade featuring two of the cutest little girls in the world (If you couldn’t tell, I’m quite biased) and their handsome little nephew. They all enjoyed a play date today and totally wrecked my bed. They dissected it, piece by piece until it was bare and then played in the pile of sheets and pillows on the floor. They were about halfway done rearranging my bed when I snapped these shots.

Aiden, my Sister’s son is on the left and my eldest little prissy pants princess is on the right. Her hair has flourished practically overnight. She has such beautiful curls. I am jealous!

The Three Stooges posed for this one but at the last second, Victoria looked down. I decided it would have to do though, because there isn’t a single other shot that doesn’t have someone facing away from the camera, someone’s finger jammed up the nose, or a blurry motion shot. *sigh* I really need to learn how to work a camera better!

My daughter has just started acquiring a taste for unusual head ware. She’s always liked hats but I think she’s gotten tired of conventional fair. This is what she wears around the house now.

When she gets bored with that look she finds other household objects to incorporate into her toddler fashion trends.

How she thought up wearing a DVD case by separating the clear plastic from the hard case I do not know but it sure is stylish!

My little girl is always willing to help us unfashionable adults to be more hip and improve our image. The best part is the makeover only costs a pudding cup!
