Spring Portrait Sessions!

After way too long of a winter, I'm happy to announce that I'm back in the business of taking pictures! Now scheduling Spring Portrait Sessions! Check out my website for more info.

Erin's

Today after a Dr's appt. I told Elise (my newly 4 yr old) that we had to run some errands. I tried really hard to pronounce all of the sounds because I know from experience that this word can be confusing.
Soon she asked, "when are we going to Erin's?". I explained again that we weren't going to "Erin's" but had to run some "errands" which meant that we had a few places to go to for some quick things. She still kept saying "Erin's" so I tried harder and said we had to run "erran-Duhs" "Duh, Duh, Duh" with a D at the end I said. She seemed to get it...
Until after our first stop, when she says, "Where are we going now? To Darren's?" All I could do was laugh at that point. I may have to put away the word "errands" for a long while.

Power of Suggestion

This girl cracks me up. At parent-teacher conferences, Ava's teacher said that Ava has "a lot of interesting things to say". I wasn't sure exactly what she meant but I know I have an idea about it. (Please note that Ava's teacher also had a lot of other positive things to say about her - which we already knew. ;) )

The other morning Ava had just put her shoes on and asks,
AVA: Mommy, are your pant legs every too long for your shoes?
MOMMY: Sometimes
AVA: Well, then you need style snaps.
MOMMY: *raises eyebrows*
AVA: Really! No sewing, no glueing, nothing! They just hold in place!
MOMMY: *laughs* maybe so

Add to this the many other times in her five years that she has thoughtfully suggested other products she has seen for sale on commercials. Things like: Perfect Brownie Pan (even took a picture of the tv screen with my phone for this one), Touch and Brush, Bump-It (oh yes, she wanted bump-it hair, Bendaroos, etc. The other day I told her she'd need to go through her papers we've been collecting from school and decide which ones she really wants to keep. She then said, "I need Wonder-file". Then she hopefully added, "it even has room for a lap-top!" I laughed and said that we probably wouldn't be getting her a laptop anytime soon but that was a nice idea.

What a funny girl!
