I was a lonely youth on desert shores.
My sports were lonely, ’mid continuous roars,
And craggy isles, and sea-mew’s plaintive cry
Plaining discrepant between sea and sky.

Still On Vacation
Enjoying the animal show at the aquarium. Baby Girl was thrilled to see an animal that Mama described as a cross between an anteater and a lemur. Perhaps Mama was a little tipsy.

Two Weeks of Travel
For those of you undergoing Little Monster withdrawal, join the club! Mama is in Corpus Christi with Wee Goblin and Daddy is on his own, missing his girls. Perhaps this video will hold you over a little bit. It's what Daddy has to get by with!

Late Night Activities
The last few days Little Monster has been a joy to be around. She's constantly happy and smiling, and even giggling at her own little antics. The pre-bedtime transformation to werewolf was caught on camera last night. Those faint of heart beware!

Where The Baby Girls Roam
Every day is an adventure when you're Miss Fuss, and some days are many adventures!
Sunday was a crazy snowstorm in northern Georgia. Who could have guessed it? The snowflakes were almost as fluffy as Little Monster's belly, and it was cold and wet. Wiggle-Critter likes wet when it comes to the bath, but she certainly does not like cold and wet when it comes to the weather. Mama hasn't seen much snow, either, though, so Wee Goblin indulged mama a bit and went outside with her for a few minutes. Then Mama came to her senses and brought Miss Fuss back inside, where everyone had hot pizza.
Friday, Mama took Baby Girl to the park near Joddie's house. It was a beautiful day and they had Daddy's car, since Mama's car is in the shop for a leaking water pump. They took advantage of the day and played in the flowers, ate grass (!), and lolled in the sunshine. Baby Girl even had a flower behind her ear, she was having such a frolic.
Then, after cavorting in the park, Little Monster came up to Daddy's office to be a part of the party that was happening there. It was a cookout, and Wee Goblin had some picnic food herself. Nothing like the brats or burgers cooked up for the big people, but it was fun to eat with Mama while Daddy was out on the patio, gesticulating wildly about some crazy idea of his. Baby Girl's friend Liam also came to the party, and the two of them giggled and smiled.
On Saturday, the adventure was houses. Little Monster must have seen almost a dozen houses today! She liked each of them, but Mama and Daddy are a little more picky when it comes to the place they want to put up a new nursery for Wee Goblin. They really seemed to like two or three, and Miss Fuss thinks a little cynically that they like the ones with the best kitchens. Can't they see that it's all about plenty of carpet to squish between our chubby toes and plenty of hardwoods to scoot across in the walker?
Baby Girl was very good while all the house-visiting was going on, but by the end of the day she had had enough. By the time we got home, a nice, long nap was in the offering. And tonight is bath night! An adventure like no other!
Oh, great, now Mama's talking about frogs.
