We've been back from Hawaii since Wednesday night and have had beautiful, sunny weather every day. So today I decided to take a little walk. When I got back, Ava looked like this...

| There's something strangely Hobbit-ey going on here |
Sophie: Mom! I just gave my first presentation!!
Me: You did? That's great. What was it about?
Sophie: I gave a presentation to Dad about upside down chairs!!
Me: Upside down chairs?
Sophie: Yeah!
KC: It was about the many uses for upside down chairs.
Me: (to KC) So what did you learn?
KC: That you can use them for transportation for your stuffed animals.
Sophie: And as a carriage for Ava!
Here is a picture of Sophie's visual aids:
Cheap Brats
Earlier today, she made a plea to her father for a new "Bratz Little Angelz". Bratz are possibly the only thing that I have forbidden in this house. They're just so skanky looking ("Skankz"). Of course, she now loves and desperately wants them.
About a year ago or so, my mother gave her a Bratz Little Angelz and I let her keep it (even though it's a skanky looking baby with tons of eyeliner). She hung the little marketing poster that came with it on her wall. It's been in her room for months. Today, for some reason, it caught her attention and she came running out of her room in search of KC (since she knows I'm anti-Bratz)...
Sophie: Dad...can I get a new Baby Brat (her name for them)? I saw one on my poster and it says that it's three six six!*
KC: Three six six? Three dollars and sixty six cents?
Sophie: (now leading KC from our room back to hers) Yeah. Three dollars and sixty six cents. I'll show you.
KC: Okay, let's see.
Sophie: Three dollars and sixty six cents...that's a cheap brat!
My point exactly.
*It turns out that "366" was the item number, not the price. It's still a cheap brat, though.
