THE WOG AND A WOGLETTE...

Come May 2007, The Wog will be a big sister. She doesn't understand it yet, but still thinks it's pretty fun to stick a balloon up her shirt. Clearly, all pregnant ladies wear Easter bonnets...

DADDY'S WOG

The Wog and her father love goofing around together.



THE WOG AND HER MINNIES

Unfortunately, we didn't get to be with The Wog's Minnie earlier this week to celebrate her birthday. But The Wog did tote around her Minnie doll all morning, giving it lots of love, attention, hugs and kisses.

WOGSGIVING

Unfortunately we don't have any pictures of The Wog all trussed up for Thanksgiving Day, but here are some from our weekend trip to Connecticut.

Hanging out with Grandma:


Looking up to Cousin Todd:


Her grateful little self:


10 THINGS THE WOG IS THANKFUL FOR

1. Grandparents
2. Dogs (particularly small ones named Piglet who let her--by this I mean "barely tolerate her"--walk them around the house on a leash for hours on end; also on The Wog's list of beloved animals are chicken and bunnies; when we sing "Old MacDonald" her farm is exclusively occupied by these three animals; this item also extends to include books about dogs, most especially "Harry the Dirty Dog," which she requests nightly at bedtime as "Dirty dog! Dirty dog!")
3. Oobi
4. Cupcakes
5. Tunnels (a new and compelling obsession--building, climbing through, identifying, talking about, etc.)
6. New shoes
7. Playgrounds (specifically, the swings and her father's smooth "underdog" maneuver)
8. Pacifiers (we're working on getting this one off the list for 2007)
9. Noodles ("Noon-els," but only if cooked by the mom who hosts our playgroup)
10. Post-bath, living room dance parties

Honorary Mentions: balloons; bubbles; animal sounds, particularly monkeys ("oo oo ah ah") and donkeys ("hee haw"); talking on the telephone ("phuh-phone"); "Corduroy" (not a doggy, chicken or bunny, but The Wog has been known to make an exception); oranges; swimming pools; the color purple; and drinking from a cup.

Happy Belated Thanksgiving from The Wog!

THE WOG GETS A NEW 'DO

At playgroup this morning, one of the other mothers French-braided The Wog's hair. (Amazing that The Wog sat patiently throughout; if she so much as seems me coming with a brush, she's long gone). It's "big girl" hair!

HAPPY WOGGY
