At 7:32am the phone rings and I hear, "What are you doing?", "I can't take another day like yesterday", "What are your plans today?" and my response, "Do you want to come over and play?" Seems that LiLi had a rather rough day yesterday and in hopes of a better one today along with some adult conversation, Deb thought that a little playtime for LiLi with Maisie would help. So I put on a pot of coffee and Deb picked up some bagels on her way over and the girls played.
There were fancy shoes, Princess dresses and tiaras, tea carts, baby strollers, kitchen playtime, bagel munching and now that Maisie's kitchen also sports a washer & dryer and microwave there was some clothes washing and lots and lots of play microwave popcorn.
Best of all though was the sweet cuddle time to read Thomas the Tank Engine. It was enjoyable and there was no crying, fighting or complaining. In the end, for some odd reason we decided to measure the girls and LiLi was right at 35-inches and Maisie was 34 1/4.
Oh what to do next? We had such a good morning going we decided to take the girls out for lunch. We all piled into my car and we headed off to a Chinese restaurant so that Maisie could have her noodles and LiLi could enjoy her fried rice. Both girls were good at lunch and on the drive but coming home it was getting close to nap time so Deb did all that she could to keep the very tired Maisie awake and we made it home without her dozing off. Of course once I put her down for her nap she wanted no part of it so its been a little rough, but finally she sleeps...Ahhhhh...
Sounds like fun day for tiara girls and crown wearing mommies!

ReplyDeleteAdorable pictues!! Maise is adorable!
Nothing better than a day filled with glittery tiaras and Chinese Food! What a great day.
ReplyDeleteWhat is with the fighting nap thing?!! My kids used to do the same thing - they'd WANT to sleep in the car... but NOT in bed?!! Crazy! Glad she finally went to sleep!
ReplyDeleteLooks like tiara's and heels are definitely the latest fashion!
Sounds like a great day! Don't you love it when friends know they can call when they need to and say, 'Hey...want to hang out today? I had a rough one yesterday!' I have friends that I can make that call to and ones that call me, and I love it! Friendships are so important! Glad you and Deb have that with one another and in turn so do your girls. Precious, precious friendships!
