Jamie sure does know how to keep herself entertained….. (notice the “mask sewing” at the end)

Lately, Jamie’s been taking a page out of Negra’s book and spending a lot of time covered up.

This morning while waiting for us to clean the HUGE mess in the playroom (see yesterday’s blog video), Missy and Annie played in the front rooms. Jamie opted for a nap.

Hey Seattleites – can you help us spread the word about the auction? We have some fabulous flyers and leave-behind cards, and we’re looking for folks to cover Ballard, Queen-Anne, Magnolia and other greater-downtown areas. Shoot Sabrina an email today and she’ll arrange to supply you with materials and let you know how we’re tracking what areas/businesses are covered.

Thanks for helping the chimps by getting folks to the best fundraising event to hit Seattle all year!

Nesting

Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009

Jody has been making lots of great nests lately. It’s amazing that even after decades of deprivation, she is such an accomplished and enthusiastic nest-maker!

Lookin’ good, Jamie

Today, Jamie spent some time brushing her hair, brushing a troll doll’s hair, and checking herself out in a mirror. Seeing Jamie doing such ‘human-like’ things makes us wonder about her childhood (her records only describe her as a ‘circus chimp’). She definitely loves being a girl; that’s for sure!! The song, “I’m so pretty, Oh so pretty…” comes to mind.
