I'm a Girl!!!

Afton finally let me put some pig tails in her hair instantly transforming her from Sean look a like into a little girl!  She sported them on a visit to Grandma and Paps and scored herself 2 cookies for her cooperation.

Kid-A-Palooza

Today was Kid-A-Palooza!! It sounds way more exciting than it actually was. Afton was a bit too young to enjoy most of the attractions but she did enjoy the food samples very much. 

Merry-Go-Round not so Merry

You seriously want me to kiss this frog?

Pretty Sure Lucy would have loved the Princess Pavilion

Balloons are always a big hit

Chalk it up...

After seeing how much Afton loved the chalkboard at the Children's Museum I decided to make her a smaller version at home. I took an old cheap ikea table and painted the top with chalkboard paint and the legs with a bright orange (at Sean's request).

Afton seems to like it. 

Daddy Day!

Afton and Sean going solo to the Science Center this morning. The plan was for me to stay home and clean all the carpets in the house but the store did not have any carpet cleaning machines in stock this morning, I guess I will have to catch up on some tv watching then.....

As you can see below, Sean got her dressed.

A Girl and Her Dog

Afton must have been taken with the Valentine spirit last week. She is in love with Steve in a major way. Steve on the other hand is looking for some space.

Don't let the Pigeon Do Anything!

Afton is very into "Don't let the Pigeon Ride the Bus".  I am pretty sure we read it at least 6 times a day. We visited B&N for story time on Saturday and one Sean's coworkers insisted on buying Afton her very own Pigeon. He is very loved.

Don't let the pigeon suck your blood

This is her smiling for the camera

Saoirse.

Afton has learned Saoirse's name!
She loves to say it. We show her pictures and she begins saying Saoirse over and over. Please keep in mind that the girl has no idea who "mom" is.  I tried to catch it on camera but she clams up every time I pull it out. I decided to get her when she was distracted by food. Here is the best record I could manage.
