Tales from the tub.

Afton loves her bathtime. She really loves all forms of hygiene. In fact the only way we can get her out of the tub is with the promise that she can brush her teeth. 

Nap Skippin'

Our Dear Sweet Afton has had some crazy days lately. I think the heat and her excitement over the presence of scout are making her a bit nutty. Yesterday she refused to nap until 4:30pm and today she refused a nap all together. To be fair, she did sleep both days for about 20 minutes in the car.....

This lack of daytime rest makes her a bit looney in the early evenings. I was unable to capture the true madness but these are some decent examples. To her credit, she is very funny and quite happy when she is overtired! 

Slide

We have been to the park quite a bit lately. Afton has finally gathered the courage to climb the jungle gym and go down the slide all by herself. She was very happy with herself today.

We also spotted a new Dad at the park today with a Boa Constrictor around his neck. They were arriving as we were leaving but we are hoping for another run in sometime this week!

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Afton enjoyed her St. Patrick's Day very much. She went to brunch at the Nacs' and passed out in the middle of the party.
She really enjoyed corned beef and watching all the drunk folks stumble around outside our house. She also stole a balloon from the obnoxious guys across the street!

She has gone to bed for the night but I highly doubt that will last as people behind our house are screaming their drunken epiphanies outside her window.

Playground

We have been enjoying this beautiful weather by spending most of our days at the nearby parks and playgrounds.  We have found some pleasant surprises (young parents at 12th street park) and some not so pleasant ones (The shirtless, smoking and yelling parents at SouthSide Park). We have also found what is possibly the nicest playground in PA at Schenley Park (not pictured).

Baby

Afton has taken a liking to her cabbage patch doll. We know her only as "baby". Each day baby gets dressed in an outfit Afton chooses and often she gets a diaper. After this baby usually gets thrown on the ground and told to go "night night".

Water

Afton has learned how to serve herself water from the fridge dispenser. This is not a good thing.

She soaked herself and was not very happy about it.

After getting rid of her wet shirt she was right back at it.
