But I could totally be royalty too.

See – I even look regal in tupperware.

Just kidding. Being fancy is way too much effort. I’ll just join the party instead.

Because Uncle Adrian has been galavanting around Thailand, among other pursuits, it has been a whole buncha months since he’s seen his bestest niece. This week we have been lucky enough to have him around.

At first he was a little demanding.

No, really, You tell me what we’re going to do.

But after a few encouraging words from Fiona he bonded with the best of ‘em.

Look Fiona. You can fly!

Ok ok. Mama probably really does owe you some time in the spotlight. I mean, it can’t be all baby all the time.

I guess.*

* And thanks for being Mama’s first subject of her brand new, shiny camera lens. Yippee!

And then you get all misty-eyed?

For Mama that thing is a Target shopping cart.*

See – Target was the very first store that Fiona ever went to. Or slept through. As the case may be.

And now she’s big enough not only to stay awake for the entire trip but to sit in the shopping cart like a big kid.

I mean, really, for that is there a dry eye in the house? Ahem. Anyone?

I thought not.

* Don’t judge.
