Dinner Party

Three guesses as to what Sweet Girl's favorite food of the moment is. Pasta with red sauce! Whenever something comes across the menu that's not directly in line with Miss Fuss's wishes, Mama and Daddy can always whip up a plate of elbow macaroni and marinara and all will be well in the world of Little Monster. In particular, she's been on a sausage kick of late, and in addition to breakfast sausages, Tiny Terror will power through an entire link of turkey sausage with dinner. Be careful, Miss Fuss — too much sausage can turn you into a wee chublet!

This weekend, while Mama was at work, Daddy took Sweet Girl out to the backyard, where she splashed around in her giraffe swimming pool. The water was a bit brisk, but Little Monster sure loves to play in the pool, so she toughed it out. Daddy couldn't find Sweet Girl's bathing suit (it had become wet in the diaper bag earlier), so it was a white-trash afternoon in the pool, spent wearing only a swim diaper. Daddy, have some dignity for your daughter.

On Sunday, Joddie came over for dinner when Mama got off work. Daddy had made a pot of chicken and andouille (more sausage for Baby Girl, of course) gumbo, and Little Werewolf was a charming hostess. She showed Joddie her new ability to eat with her own spoon all by herself. She also rubbed some gumbo into her hair and hammed it up for the camera a little bit, as you can see. Note the spoon in hand, as Baby Girl demonstrates her abilities at self-sufficiency. In fact, between an afternoon in the pool on Saturday and gumbo dinner on Sunday, Sweet Girl has had more baths than she can remember this weekend.
