Caught red-handed

AKA fun with paint.

General cuteness

The latest in News of the Cute:

*When she first got her eyepatch, Roxanne started asking people, "What happened [to] your eye?" I guess so many people asked her that question that she thought it was a greeting of some sort.

*Roxanne has been eating like a champ lately. When she's really enjoying her food, she does this funny little sideways head bob thing. We call it the happy food dance.

*One morning, Dan heard Roxanne start to wake up, so he peeked into her room.

"Are you awake?" He whispered.

"Still sleeping." She whispered back. Well, then. He was dismissed.

Heh. I'll get up when I'm good and ready.

My dog ate my blog.

So, I haven't been blogging lately. A big reason is that I like to include a photo of Roxanne in most posts, and getting a good shot of her has been impossible lately. She is always moving -- quickly! Plus, I'm having trouble with our camera, blah, blah, blah.

Anyway, Roxanne is starting to act more like a two year old. She often barks commands, such as, "Mommy! Go away!" or, "Want juice! Now!" Delightful, no? Saying "please" and "thank you" is a work in progress. But despite all that, she's still adorable and enchanting most of the time.

She likes to look at the magazines and newspapers that Dan and I read. Not surprisingly, she recognizes President Obama. Recently, Dan was reading the paper, and Roxanne said, "Obama, naked!" While that would be very interesting, the photo was actually an athlete with his shirt off.

I'm really happy that the weather has been getting warmer, because one of Roxanne's favorite activities is running around. Here she is getting some spring sunshine.
