Ainsley sure loves her kitties - both her stuffed toy, Kitty, and our real cat, Clio. She's very gentle with Clio and has figured out how to play with her: Ainsley swings ribbons back and forth through the air, while Clio swats at them and catches them between her paws, leaving Ainsley in a fit of giggles.
Clio is also very tolerant and protective of Ainsley. She spends most of the night sleeping in Ainsley's room. If Ainsley starts to cry in the middle of the night, it's not long until I hear the "click-click" of claws across the bedroom floor and a little meow, as Clio comes to my bedside to let me know there's something wrong.
Best friends...

Last weekend, we visited my friend Julie and her little boy, Cooper. (Cooper's baby brother, Coby, is only about three months old, so he didn't join in the fun just yet.) It's been almost a year since Ainsley and Cooper played together, so it was fun to watch them interact, now that they're both "big kids"!

| I can't believe how big they're getting! |

| Ainsley took this picture of Cooper - she instructed, "Say cheese!" |
 |
| Silly kids! |
