the circus!

we took penny to the circus, and she really seemed to enjoy it!  there was only one point where it got too loud, and alex took her out into the hall to calm down - the rest of the time she watched and slept.

of course, since she's my daughter, she also got to do this:

she doesn't care now, but someday!
we found what must have been the items that didn't sell at someone's stoop sale as we were coming home yesterday - we picked up a brand new car seat, bouncer, and a bag of clothes in penny's size!  the universe has smiled upon us.  included in the bag of clothes was a pink furry bucket hat; as i now lovingly refer to it, her "pimp hat". photos will surely follow.


and now, a special feature, just for jodi, who claims that you cannot take a bad picture of penny and that somehow i am cheating by having an extra cute baby.  i shall name the feature "for every one of these..."

For Every One of These:

There is One of These:

thank you.
