1. Isabelle! The baby is doing just fine. She slips and slides all over our hardwood floors (so classy.) We taught her how to stand and she's learning how to walk on her hind feet. Her nose still wiggles constantly and apparently she's a pretty big celebrity on campus. Carrots have successfully been introduced to her diet and we're working on snow peas and cantaloupe. Today Lizzle and I cut her front nails (after consulting Rabbits for Dummies of course.) I love her more and more by the minute.




perfection.


airborne bunny butt!


find cuddles!

2. Cupcakes! I've made cupcakes twice since coming back to school. I made these pink ones last night. Two slight problems: first, I think the oven temperature isn't accurate because the recipe usually produces perfect cupcake domes and these ones were rather flat; and second, there is a mouse that lives in our kitchen...I think we should name him and pretend he's a pet. Or kill him as soon as possible. Don't worry, I'm not going to let a little mousey stop my baking needs.



3. Mary-Kate! Just did a shoot for Entertainment weekly where she dressed up like a Native American. Love what a dikdik she's being in the full length shot. Apparently she's been sporting skin tight leather pants at multiple fashion week events.





MK's going to be on Conan on the 12th and she starts on Weeds on the 17th. MK for president.

4. Me! Lizzle and I have the cutest room Columbia has ever seen. It has high ceilings, wood floors, two windows, two lizzles, and a bunny! seriously?? seriously!


I currently have the following things visitble: 7 pictures of MK, 3 framed pictures of Isabelle, a baby Nais, 2 pictures of MM, 6 references to Charmanda, 8 references to princesses, and 4 references to my cheetahs.



Nils and I purchased tickets to Vancouver a couple weeks ago which is pretty exciting. Nils even made up a song that was semi-inspired by our trip. It goes like this: "SOCIALIZIN! DRANKIN! PRIMEISCUOUS! IN THE COUV." It's really going to be a hit.

I'm back in class, back at Nice, and back at Teen Vogue. Blah, blah, and yay!

Today Lizzle and I went grocery shopping because she was craving bagel bites. She also decided she wanted Annie's mac and cheese and on our way over to the aisle I noticed a fireman. IN UNIFORM. In an attempt to reach the orange cheese box rather than the white cheese box, Lizzle caused four boxes of Kraft mac and cheese to fall on my head. I screamed and then we tried to put the boxes back on the top shelf which only made some more fall and caused me to scream again. Then we hear "Do you need some help?" IT WAS THE FIREMAN. omg! I asked him if he had a ladder (smooth and witty, i know.) which made him smile...he had a gap tooth but I didn't really care. In fact, I loved him even more. Then some hairy old man came over and said "which one of you screamed? I could hear it all the way by the vegetables!!" Hey old man? Don't talk to me unless you're dressed as a fireman. Thanks. Maybe I took spy pictures on my cellphone as he was checking out.

To conclude: I want chips, chocolate, and cake.
