I think she likes 'em :-) If you listen you may be able to hear a nice slurping sound!
In other news, big congrats to all the winners of the ALA (American Library Association) awards today! If you don't follow children's literature closely, these are kind of the Academy Awards for us. I'm most excited that my friend and local Portland author LK Madigan won the Morris Award for a debut YA novel for her terrific book Flash Burnout which I have been intending to review here for weeks (and will, soon, but you don't have to wait for my review. Read it!). Yay, Lisa!Oh, and guess what. Today, for the first time in over four months, Jim and I went to the movies! (We did bring Clementine with us to the theater once when she was a teeny-tiny sleep-lump.) Today my parents babysat so we could go see Avatar in the theaters -- it really is a theater movie, not a Netflix movie. Ohmygosh it was so awesome! Love-love-loved it. I was so ridiculously excited to be en route to the movies this afternoon. I LOVE the movies, the dark theater, the previews, the opening moments. Magic. I've missed it, and there are a lot of movies I want to see! But, giant bummer: the show sold out while we were standing in line. ARRRRRG! We considered going to see a different movie, but I had my heart set on a big fat sci-fi/fantasy epic, so we picked up lunch for my parents, went home to eat and tank the baby up again, then went to a later showing at another theater. Thank you, mom and pop!

Oh cute, cute, CUTE!! She's absolutely adorable! Magnus is not quite there yet (on the toe business, not the cute business, but there are reasons, and I'll tell you in a mail). Did I mention that Clementine is cute? She really is.
I wish I was that flexible! What a little darling. That smile's a real winner.
Clementine is so adorable! I am glad you got to see your movie!
Oh my gosh, the toe-tasting video is so adorable! (Don't remember if I've commented before... if not, well then, pleased to meetcha.)

Well, she just keeps getting cuter and cuter! Its so important for Mom and Dad to still have 'just the two of us' time...Glad you got to enjoy a day out!
Oh my goodness, that Clementine deserves a cuteness award! So glad you guys got to see Avatar. I just babysat for my sister and brother-in-law so they could see it, and they were so happy! It's definitely a theater experience kind of flick.
Movies are awesomesauce. But watching a movie while the grandparents babysit? Awesomesauce with extra awesome on top!
Delicious! So adorable!
And yay for my fave book, Lips Touch!!!!!!!!

And... I totally hear you about the movies. I think I have been to 5 in the last 7 years. Lol! Thank goodness for On Demand! ;)
I have been a "silent follower" for a long time but you have helped to inspire me to make my dream of writing a reality! (The writing, anyway... I'll leave the rest in the hands of the Gods of Publishing... and pay them. Handsomely. Lol! :)
Oh sweet little Pie was savoring her toes while I won my award!

TOO cute. :D
funny, rob was in the kitchen cooking (:swoon:) when i told him about this video. the first words out of his mouth were "like batch hangnail." to this i replied, "this angel cannot be compared to batch hangnail. come watch." he did and we giggled at the sucking sound. hilarious.
See the thing with Clementine is she's just so MISERABLE all the time, LOL! Her angelic smile makes me want to weep.
Oh my goodness. She is so sweet it's painful. You must chew on her all day long.
I would have been the first to comment, but since there were no comments (thus no (1) comment link, I couldn't figure out how.
Clem is so adorable! We saw Avatar a little while ago; I really loved it. The animation was amazing! I'm sure that is how every movie will be in 20 years.
At least Clementine does not stick her toes up her nose like Batch Hangnail.
Dawn & Rob: ha ha! I didn't even think about Batch!
Heather: I know. Her life is so rough!
Jolie: More like nibbling!
Anonymous: YET. She hasn't discovered the fascination that is nostrils yet :-)
She makes that big toe look so delicious ... I'm jealous. I want to suck on it too. I can't reach my own. Well maybe I need to go have me some lunch.
Hugs for the precious Clementine.
