Introductions...

Easter Sunday morning LGG woke early, eager to get on with the Easter Egg hunt. We had a pretty easy Easter egg hunt because we didn't want to stain the borrowed apartment with dyed eggs. After the Easter egg hunt, she received a Lindt chocolate bunny from us and an Easter basket from grandma delivered by Auntie Geek. Inside the Easter basket was a My Little Pony "Toola Roola" and a cute little kitten that she named "Stripe".

LGG loves new toys, but sometimes we dread them. Why? Because whenever she gets new "buddies" they need to be introduced to each other. Thankfully we have gotten past the binomial system of introducing buddies and now we put the old buddies in a large circle and the new buddy is placed in the middle and learns everyone's names, but there are no long drawn out conversations.

I had left the apartment to go pick up a floor lamp that we were purchasing second hand and when I returned, I found the following scene:


LGG had convinced ZDG to help her with the introductions, so in the above photo they are carefully sorting the buddies by type and size.

Here they are getting ready to introduce Toola Roola and Stripe to all of the buddies.



This happens EVERY time a new buddy enters the household. Please think very carefully before sending one.
