MALIBU FATNESS

THIS IS WHAT FRITH GETS UP TO WHEN MAMA GOES TO "VISIT THE BOYS IN THE OFFICE"

THE POST-HYPNOX CRAZIES

IN THE DAYS LEADING UP TO THE LAUNCH OF HYPNOX, FRITH GOT INTO THE STICKERS.

THE MOST FUN WAS PUTTING ONE ON EACH FINGER.

SO SHE DID IT AGAIN THE NEXT DAY. WITH OLIVES.


THIS COMBINATION OF OUTFITS FROM AUNTIES NANCY AND CHRISTIE WAS A HUGE HIT ALL-ROUND.

THEN CAME ST PATRICK'S DAY.

WE ATE AT THE WINCHESTER, ALL WEARING GREEN.

PAPA JOINED US FOR DINNER .. THEY HAD A PHOTO-OP BEFORE PAPA NEEDED TO TAKE OFF FOR VARIOUS IRISH-TYPE FESTIVITIES.

BUT NOT BEFORE FRITH MANAGED TO SHOW US HOW DRINKING SOMEBODY UNDER THE TABLE SHOULD TRULY BE DONE.

PPP

THE FRITH HOLDS FORTH, WHILST WEARING A PIRATE HAT, A PARTY DRESS, AND A PAIR OF OMI'S SLIPPERS.

MOOO-VIES

WE SHOT A LOT OF FILM AT OPA'S HOUSE THIS WEEK.. FOR THE SAKE OF COMPLETENESS, ALL THE MOVIES ARE HERE.. BUT WE UNDERSTAND IF YOU CAN'T MAKE IT THROUGH ALL OF THEM :)

KIBBLES AND BITS

ONCE MORE, APOLOGIES FOR THE DELAY IN POSTING. MAMA HAS BEEN VERY BUSY WITH THE BUSINESS LAUNCH. BUT WE ARE NOW IN THE HOME-STRETCH.. BY MID-MARCH THINGS SHOULD BE BACK TO NORMAL.. MEANWHILE, IF YOU'D LIKE TO SEE WHAT MAMA HAS BEEN UP TO, TAKE A LOOK.

THEO (A GIFT FROM MEME AND PEPE) HAS BEEN A LOYAL FRIEND TO FRITH SINCE THE DAY SHE WAS BORN.

BECAUSE FRITH SUCKS HIS NOSE WHEN SHE GOES TO SLEEP, THEO IS SLOWLY GETTING A LITTLE YELLOW AND THREADBARE. IN THE HOPES THAT SOMEONE OUT THERE MIGHT KNOW WHERE A BACK-UP THEO COULD BE FOUND, WE TOOK A COUPLE OF PHOTOS WITH HIM.

IT WAS ALSO A GOOD OPPORTUNITY FOR A QUICK SELF-PORTRAIT

FRITH DECIDED SHE WAS A TURTLE, AND CLIMBED INSIDE A PILLOWCASE (HER SHELL.)

MODELING ONE OF HER DOZENS OF BATHING SUITS BEFORE A TRIP TO OPA'S HOUSE.

A LOVE-IN WITH THE LONG SUFFERING FRITH-LOVING FATNESS.

A RECORD HAD TO BE MADE OF THIS OUTSTANDING HAIR-DO.


COMBINED WITH THE WOLFMAN-JACK IMPRESSION, JUDGES GAVE IT A THUMBS UP.

VDAY

PAPA OFFERED TO TAKE MAMA AND THE FRITH OUT FOR DINNER AT THE COLLINS FOR VALENTINE'S DAY.

THE COLLINS WAS FRITH'S CHOICE - I THINK SHE HAS A CRUSH ON NATHAN, THE CUTE RED-HAIRED WAITER.

NO WAIT. THAT WAS MAMA.

FRITH SHOWED OFF HER STANDING-ON-ONE-FOOT ABILITIES (SHE SAYS SHE IS SKATING).

AND THEN PUT ON A PUPPET SHOW FOR THE LADIES IN THE NEXT BOOTH USING A BLACK CLOTH NAPKIN.

AND FINALLY, FRITHS LATEST IMITATION OF A SABRE-TOOTHED TIGER.

OWL PROWL

WE WENT TO THE OWL PROWL AT THE MOUNTSBERG WILDLIFE CENTRE A FEW NIGHTS AGO.

FIRST THERE WAS A PUPPET SHOW, FEATURING BUSHY AND HOOTS (A SQUIRREL AND AN OWL).

THEN WE MET CHOMPERS, A GREAT HORNED OWL. FRITH WAS VERY IMPRESSED - SHE'S STILL TALKING ABOUT CHOMPERS.

BEFORE WE WENT OUTSIDE FOR A CAMPFIRE STORY (AND ANOTHER MEETING WITH CHOMPERS, LOOKING SPOOKY IN HIS NATURAL HABITAT) FRITH DECIDED SHE OUGHT TO GO BACKSTAGE TO SEE WHAT'S WHAT. I THINK SHE GAVE THE SNOWY OWL A BIT OF A SCARE - HE PROMPTLY POOPED ON THE FLOOR.

BUSY TIMES

FRITH HAS, WITHOUT A DOUBT, INHERITED HER MAMA'S QUESTIONABLE SENSE OF STYLE.

HERE SHE IS DEMONSTRATING HOW ONE SHOULD WEAR A SOCK WITH A BLOWN OUT TOE. ON YOUR ARM, OBVIOUSLY.

OMI CREATED AND ASSEMBLED A CHINESE DRAGON WITH THE KIDS AT FRITH'S SCHOOL FOR CHINESE NEW YEAR.

FRITH, GETTING INTO THE SPIRIT OF THE HOLIDAY.

WE WERE AT THE LIBRARY AGAIN THIS WEEKEND, WHERE FRITH DEMONSTRATED HER MAD CHALK-DRAWING SKILLS. SHE HAS STARTED TO DRAW CIRCLE-TYPE OBJECTS LATELY. SHE SAYS THEY'RE PICTURES OF MAMA AND FRITHA. AND WHALEY (THE ANCIENT BLUE RUBBER BATH WHALE).

SHOOKATAKA

mama, omi and the frith went to visit andrea and her new baby alexandra.

because they live in oakville, we took the train to avoid getting stuck in hours of highway delays.

instead, on the way home we got stuck in hours of train delays.

no big deal though. frith headed across the aisle and got to know some of the other passengers.

the only shot i managed to get at andrea's house.. frith in the rec-room. playing trains of course.

PRICKLY PEAR

frith loves to jump on beds.

they are like big soft cushy trampolines.

omi's guest-room has the biggest best bed of them all.

so frith went to town last night.

omi finally couldn't take it any more, and had to sit at the edge to prevent any frith-overboarding.

sometimes you just have to grab the frith and hug her. she's a prickly pear, but what are you going to do? she's just the most squeezable thing on this entire planet, i'll tell you what.
