PAT THEM GENTLY

I think she's really getting this concept. Pat Them Gently is a board book about what to do when you meet a pet. It also has fake furry areas inside. She knows the book when you say to go get it. We've also been using the term when it comes to Ivy and Willow. We got her a stuffed Pom and the reaction at first was pretty funny. I think she thought it was real by her expression and the fact that she wouldn't really go near it. At first she did gently pet it, then she realized it wasn't real and rolled and flung it around. Watch out Minni and Bitsy. Violet might think you're just a stuffed toy.

ON THEN OFF, ON THEN OFF

These are really just a novelty. She doesn't keep them on long enough to do any good. It's more fun taking them off and trying to put them back on. Then she gets mad because she can't do it herself.

PONYTAILS

Chris has been wanting ponytails for a while now. I managed to get two in. It's a bit hard when she's squirming around. Goody hair products make tiny clear hair bands and they seem to stay in place real well. Now we just need bows.
