"This my dangle."





Poor Carmela has come down with croup this week; not only is she a little bit feverish and a little bit miserable, and not only did she throw up a little bit of her lunch, but she also had to pay a visit to Doc Hogg, and of course he stuck things in her ears. It's been a rough day.

Still, Carmela is making the best of it. As you may recall, one of Carmela's favorite playground activities is dangling — hanging by her arms from the monkey bars or parallel bars until her arms get tired and she lets go. Well. Carmela has recently seen a few big kids dangling BY THEIR LEGS, and this got her thinking about how to do it herself. She's still a bit too cautious to do it outside at the playground, but, as you can now see, the inside of her crib is a totally different story. Before she demonstrated, she told Mama, "This my dangle." Mama said, "Ooooh! Very good!"

Color



Carmela's colors are still hit or miss, but one thing she knows: She loves a red balloon.
