Abuse

We have been on vacation in Sunriver since last Monday.  We're having a lovely time, but we have had a few rainy days.  On one of those days, we went in to Bend and took the girls to Target.

We spent most of our time letting the girls look at toys (they ultimately chose baby Zhu Zhu pets).  Sophie roamed aisle to aisle asking me if I would buy her things for her "6 year old birthday". Ava spent almost all of her time in the Dora aisle.

She had found a Dora that talked and danced, "We did it!  We did it!"  (For the record, we will never buy her that toy.) She took all of the dancing Doras off of the shelf and put them in a circle on the floor.  Then she sat in the center of the circle and went around pressing each one's button, creating a horrible dancing Dora chorus.

When it was time to go, Ava told KC that Dora hit her.

This is one of her themes lately. She regularly tells me that KC hit her and since we arrived in Sunriver, she's been telling me that a bee hit her.  I'm pretty sure that KC isn't hitting Ava.  I do think it's possible that she got stung by a bee.  She had a nasty bug bite when we first got here, so maybe that's what she's referring to. As for Dora, I can only say that their scuffle in Target hasn't affected Ava's love for her.
