Letter from Internal Blogging Office

I recently received the following communication:
Dear Sir,
The Internal Blogging Office has noted that you maintain a blog, and are a parent of a young child. We would like to draw your attention to blogging regulation 34(d), which states that updated pictures of said child should be posted on a timely basis. There are some concerns that it has been a while since such a picture has appeared on your blog. We trust this is merely an oversight from the hustle and bustle of the holiday season. Your prompt attention to this matter is greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Miranda P. Wallacespooner
Internal Blogging Office
Cute Child Pictures Division

The letter was a bit of a surprise - I didn't even know there *was* an Internal Blogging Office. Anyway, if it's anything like the IRS it would be best not to mess with them. Here's a couple of pictures that should satisfy the requirements.

New Van Air Freshener

The van started to develop a little smell, so we got a new air freshener.

I'm not sure how we'll hang it from the dash.
