My Pal Violet

I meant to share this photo with you on yesterday's post.  This was taken on our way to Houston for Father's Day.  Isabelle is sharing her sippy cup of milk with her dog, Violet.  It was really cute in the car, but not so cute today when she tried to share her sippy cup with our real dog, Darcy.  I caught her giving it to Darcy, and Darcy happily licking the cup. 

Violet, by the way, is one of the coolest children's toys.  It was a Christmas gift from Damian's brother and his family, and Isabelle has just loved it.  My Pal Violet and My Pal Scout are made by Leap Frog.  Violet has a USB cable that you can connect to your computer to program the toy to say your child's name and some of his or her favorites, like her favorite food and color.  It's one of my favorite toys too because Isabelle wakes up playing with it.  I usually let her play with Violet for at least 10-20 minutes in the morning before I get her out of her crib.
