Aunt Gi: The Balloon Artist

Aunt Gi has a new talent and Mommy is shamelessly trying to publicize her balloon-sculpting abilities. 🙂 If you need to hire a balloon artist, keep Aunt Gi in mind!

For my past couple of playdates with CoCo, Aunt Gi has given me original handmade balloon sculptures. The first one was a monkey climbing on a tree. Mommy regrets not taking a photo of it before it deflated, but while it’s not the same, here is a photo of something very similar to the one Aunt Gi sculpted:

Then, she sculpted a lobster for me (this is the actual one). Check out how authentic the claws are:

The balloon sculptures are in addition to all the sweet snacks Aunt Gi always makes for us. I have to remind my Mommy to get with the program and see how real playdates are done!

Picasso in the Making

My new art studio arrived today.  Since Mommy had the day off, she assembled the studio.  Mommy was trying to find something more versatile and more multi-functional than a simple easel and lo and behold, she found it on Amazon (for a mere $49.99)!

The easel folds down into a desk and there are lots of little bins to store things.  The stool adds to the effect.  And on the back, it’s even a book display shelf.

I took an instant liking to this studio.  In fact, here I am working hard at my desk:

Mommy thinks this one looks like a grasshopper…
