Esme helps make her cat doll




She asked for a cat doll the other day when she found these amber and green safety eyes in a box. She waited patiently tonight until I finished the pair of shorts to match her purple dress. Then she told me what she wanted it to look like. She wanted it to be a 'cat machine doll' with a GO button and a STOP button on their paws. She wanted it to be a girl cat and it could be 'like Pollywog' our mama cat. This is the best I could oblige, and she helped (some) to make it.

Cleaning Help




Esme insisted on helping me clean up downstairs last night. She definitely has her own sense of style. She said she was a Cinderella and a 'chef' last night, because she was helping to clean. I'm not sure why she thinks she is a chef, maybe that is why the hat? "Look at all this MESS. gotta clean this up. Now where that hand wash go?"

I had her put all of her downstairs toys into the box in the background - which was a lot. She was wearing rollerskates for a while there, and eating pizza and drinking milk while watching Wall-E. She told me I was being awful cleaning the bathtub because I was moving toys, but that the cleaning was a good job. In the end I had to make her get a towel to clean up the large expanses of water she had left on the floor, as it wasn't really dirty at that point - I had already mopped it.
