Monday Absurdities (for Daddy)

One extra joy with the blog is that Daddy can check in from work and feel extra connected to what's going on at the homestead or with Vanessa. Ideally Monday would be the best for sharing off-the-wall kinds of things regularly, but I can't always promise extra moments to post pictures and share. So if something seems extra random, perhaps the opportunity presented. (What is she doing right now? She's licking syrup off a plate while it drips into her lap.) :)

This morning when getting Vanessa from bed:

Mommy: "Are you ready to get up?"

Vanessa: "I can't. My wings are stuck together."

(I'm assuming she was playing Ming Ming from Wonder Pets.)

And Vanessa getting ready for the day . . .

(She's putting in her contacts. And putting on face lotion. She let me brush her hair and put some in a ponytail. It now looks cute since the hair on the sides of her head are beginning to grow more.)

And before coming downstairs, we spent an extra ten minutes rolling her hot rod Matchbox car back and forth under the bathroom door . . .
