Breaking the Bank

. . . the piggy bank that is. After only 6 months of collecting, Ivy smashed her piggy bank to bits (regardless of the fact that it had an easy-to-remove plug under its belly). I guess she really wanted to go shopping!
Actually I'm the one to blame. I let her play with it on the ground while I took a shower and later moved it up on a chair to get it out of the way. She eventually found and knocked it off onto the tile floor. Sorry Barbara, it was such a cute piggy too. Unfortunately it's not the first fragile item to shatter on that floor!
Sweet Ivy. I just love this knit hat my mom sent to her.
After I took pictures of the broken piggy (that was totally staged btw, I misplaced my camera the day it broke and couldn't take a picture right away) Millie took advantage of the camera in the bathroom and started snapping away. Here are some of my favorite shots of the bath tub:

To bad about he piggy bank. I remember I had a plastic bottle to collect change in, not as cute as the piggy bank.

She is a doll! And piggy banks are more fun with money all over the house! Cute!

How sad! My girls love their piggies!

It is a cute piggy bank! Did she have that much change in there already? Or was that the staged part?

Ha ha! I love the pictures little kids take. I'm so grateful for digital cameras because it doesn't waste any film for kids to play with them. Brody loves taking pictures. Ivy is too cute! Sorry about the piggy bank.

Diane- All the money was in there, I just had to sweep up all the tiny shards from the mirror for safety before I finally found my camera. So I had to move it all and then stage it for the picture.
