Record Snow for February

Tickling the Ebonies

She can reach the keyboard, folks. Which means that she could be the one writing this. I assure you that its not though. Her only pleasure is just banging away at the keys, regardless of whether or not its turned on.


Below is a shot of one of better times in the bath. That was not tonight. The bath tonight was short lived mainly due to an over scheduled day.....play, play, play some more, sleep a bit, then more play.

Applause

Today, we have reached a crossroad; a great milestone of sorts. Tua has learned the fine art of clapping. This is no involuntary applause either. She puts her hands together on command. We'll try to post a video of it when the batteries are back up and running. Below are some today shots of ....

Tua perusing the latest Boden threads.....

.....Tua and Jackson, the amiable buffalo.

Mind the Gap

Yesterday afternoon's trip to the dentist was destined to prove uneventful. I was led into the cleaning room by my cordial hygenist. I usually make the most of the 5 minutes or so of pre-prophalaxis conversation with whoever might be cleaning my teeth as those are the only minutes I have to establish myself as an intelligent human being with more to offer than a slack-jawed "ess" or "oh" and the occasional drooling nod. We made light talk of the weather and family and I was just starting to get settled into the chair when the routine came to a jarring stop.

"It appears as though we haven't seen a panoramic x-ray of your teeth in twelve years."

She said this as though she might have been talking about some erratic celestial event; some luminecent comet which only comes around every third leap year.

"Oh?" I agreed.

So....without further adoo-doo......

The latest 'panorax' ( as they say in dental land ).......





By the way, for all you identity theives out there, the positions of the molars and some incisors have been changed to protect the innocent.

On Three....

Eggs.......


Butter.........

Cheese!!!

Tua's days are usually spent in the company of her favorite personalities. Her parents count themselves fortunate to be included in her posse of regular pals. These are some shots taken this evening of the crew. Captain Dog and First Mate Peter Silly Honey are in the foreground.

Cafe Tua is Open

Bug put the final coat on Tua's dining table last night. Defintely Tua's colors, as they match everything else in her room. Tua's first dinner guest was her pal, Dog.



Such a cute couple.
