When I see you smile, I see a ray of light

Apparently the key to catching a genuine Ari smile (as opposed to a fake one) is to just give Tony the camera. What can I say... the girl loves her Daddy. He took some pictures a couple days ago...





OK, fine, she was in a silly mood, but those smiles are much realer than the ones she throws us when we ask for them.

This is a little more natural... (Can't you just see the mischief in her eyes? Or maybe it's just me...)



Tony said they spent quite a while outside that day, adorning the driveway with their chalk artwork. (Just another example of how she's like her Daddy--the cold weather doesn't bother her at all.) If you look at the very bottom of the picture, you can see he drew her swingset.



And here she is, chasing Ivan... or maybe trying to sneak up on him. He is totally her dog. She could do anything to him, and he wouldn't care.



Both of the dogs--Ivan on the left and Sasha on the right. See that scratch on Ivan's nose? Apparently he and Sasha had a little scuffle the other day. And of course she totally won because he is a massive wuss.



And, to finish, a couple more of the kidlet.

Bet you any money she was either begging Daddy to pick her up, or insisting on seeing the pictures he'd been taking.



Love love her big blue eyes...



And that's all for today, folks.
