Dress-up and photo browsing

In the latest Little Mermaid installment, Ariel sets her sights much higher than a sailor prince she rescues from the sea. I present to you the newest sequel to The Little Mermaid: Ariel and the Astronaut:




Things got really interesting for the astronaut, though, once Binky Cowie came into the picture:



Alas, Ariel was shunned for the astronaut's true love.

On another note, Madeleine and I looked at vacation pictures together this morning, and here is what she had to say about the following photos:


"A Madeleine, a eating ice fweam TWUCK!"
(Close, honey. Cupcakes.)


"A Juchie, a Madeleine, ice fweam TWUCK!"



ME: Madeleine, who's this?
MADELEINE: A Uncle MIKE!
ME: Uncle Dave, yes. And who's this? (pointing to Emily)
MADELEINE: Baby.
ME: Baby...
MADELEINE: Baby who.
(I have been prompting her to label the particular babies we know lately by saying "Baby Who?" after she points out "baby!" Apparently she now thinks "Baby who" is an actual name.)
ME: It's baby Emily. And who's this? (pointing to Aunt Sarah.)
MADELEINE: SAWWAH!
1 for 3, at least.



ME: Madeleine, whose house is this?
MADELEINE: Doggie animal!
(I guess this means she thinks Clara is the head of household, since "doggie animal" is the affectionate way in which Shannon refers to her dog.)

  1. I love the world according to Madeleine, it's such a nice, simple place. Ice fweam twucks and houses owned by dogs...it doesn't get better. And that everything starts "A"

    I have to see those stinkin' kids - I miss them so much!
