Almost an aunt!

Well, the big news of the week is that I'm almost an aunt! Apparently my sister-in-law is being induced (is that the right word) on Friday. I am very excited!

And here is a movie that shows how we plan for Audrey II (the puppet) to move at the end of the show. It won't move more than a few feet forward. The script calls for four puppets. The itty bitty one, the one that's big but still holdable, the third one that is too big to hold and starts to talk to people and the fourth one that eats people. We will be having the 3rd and 4th one be the same one. But, for the fourth "growth" we are going to have two people on either side of the puppet act as limbs (they will be part of the puppet too - so in other words we will have three puppeteers). And that way his limbs can come to life and he can be more animated and "real."

Very cool Steph! I look forward to seeing the puppet in action!

And congrats on being an aunt! It is a lot of fun (even though I don't get to see much of my niece)!
