Explain This

I enjoy getting Viv gussied up to visit Nonna...no one appreciates the cute tights, nice jackets and Italian baby boots like a Sicilian seamstress and shoemaker's daughter.

Last Sunday, when we dropped CiCi off for an afternoon with her, Nonna was in her morning duds. When we picked CiCi up in the afternoon, there was this chummy matched pair!

Only later did I notice in the photo that they were looking at last year's Little Book of Viv album, and randomly at a snapshot of Viv in similiar (but smaller) polka dotted tights!

The Best Wife Ever

I was out of town most of today, Paulie kept busy:

Me:"Did you enjoy your alone time today?"

Paulie, gesturing down enthusiastically :"I did! Did you see my floors?!?!"

Almost

Viv, with her pants off and a scarf on her head, carrying Papas belt, singing:

"Jingle bells, jingle bells..."

Papa: "Viv, that's my belt."

"Jingle belt, jingle belt...."

Mutually Exclusive

  

I was called a Hipster today. I also recieved my Shorewood property tax bill today.

Perhaps the new Milwaukee Hipster wears long johns, has a house that always smells faintly of pee, and is thrilled to get a new iron for Christmas.
