The Bogart

Sorry there has been such a long gap between posts, but as many of you know, Lauren/Mommy was in the final days of dissertation finishing and there was no time for extracurricular activities (except for an occasional evening Firefly viewing, but really that was medicinal).

As a thanks for your patience, please enjoy the following (possibly best ever!) video series. There is really so much of interest in these videos, the main theme of course being Ella's hunt for the Bogart. But let's not fail to appreciate the triple ponies! (Daddy's idea.)

For those of you who don't know about bogarts (not this one),



they are little mischievous household spirits. (I imagine they look more like Hoggle from the Labyrinth than the Film Noir kind of Bogart.)



When I was a kid we had one who lived in our chimney. Our current one lives in the air ducts. Ella heard him one day, but to date he remains elusive. Still, she tries; although, you may notice she is not brave enough to go it alone. In this video she was distracted from playing in the sink and asking to have Vaseline put on her nose (for no particular reason) by a strange (probably non-existent) noise.
