Princesses, Part II. 1-23-15

We just happened to catch Snow White and Aurora on a fluke.

Boop's Favorite Princess, Tiana

Boop was so excited, she had to take a break from Tiana to run around and then come back.

Some Princess Wannabees.

Cinderella's Lovely Stepmother

Me: "She looks a little terrified."

Her: "As she should."

And at the end: "Return to the humans who own you."

 Cinderella, revisited.

 We liked Prince Charming.

Pete's Silly Sideshow? 1-21-15

She finally met Daisy! 

But she was very nervous about Goofy--or The Great Goofini.

(Pete isn't there.)

Princesses. 1-16-15

We saw princesses. We saw princesses.

We saw lots and lots of princesses.

We were late to see Belle, 
but a staff person was nice enough to give us a Fast Pass.

I have to say that was one of the few nice staff members we encountered.

Overall, the staff was not as nice as I would have expected, especially since my Mom had mobility issues and was on a scooter. 
In fact, I think they treated us worse because of it.

Riding Horses. 1-15-15

So nice, we had to do it twice.

Cinderella and Rapunzel. 1-14-15

These were a bit blurry. 
I forgot to bring Boop an autograph book. They gave her a Birthday card at Chef Mickey's; so we just went with that. It actually worked out pretty well--except that the back was slick and poor Piglet got ink all over his paw from Eyore's signature. 
Gammy was on camera duty, and I was on video camera. 

Who's Your Friend? 1-13-15

She would not.let.go of Chip, and it became a little awkward, yes. Funny though. She's nearly 3; so it qualifies as pretty cute. 

Even Dale is cracking up.

Dale takes his turn.

One more squeeze for Chip.

Applecore! 3:00

I’m Just a Woman. 1-3-15

• Over Thanksgiving, we were in the parking lot of the grocery store, and Boop was a little agitated. I told her, “Well, we just need to pick up a few more things for cookie baking day, Chickadee.” She was incredulous: “I’m NOT a chickadee!” “Well, what do you want me to call you, then?” I asked. “I, I’m just a woman,” she explained. I had to laugh at that one, which didn’t help matters. She was grumpy and trudged through the entire store.
• At Christmas, the planets aligned, I had no strains or challenges to my voice, Mom was able to hear me for the first time in several months—devices were present and functioning, and a Fisher Price Little People baby Jesus lay in a manger under our Christmas tree. It was a heady time, indeed.
• At Walmart last week, Boop was walking ahead, and her jeggins were losing their hold. I called to her, “Hon, you think you better pull up your pants?” She ignored me. I looked to my left, and there was a guy in camo pulling up his pants. Okay, so that must be the worst pick-up line ever, but at least someone listened to me.
• Boop’s hit single is ‘Shiny Day.’ I have no idea where she heard this song, but I think it’s one that she’s made up. Fortunately, unlike many grindingly annoying pop songs that are played over and over, her song changes every time she sings it, based on whatever she’s doing.

  

  Check out the hair.
