So my friend Laura came to visit from California - we calculated 17 years that we've been BFFs! So this was totally fun for us because we haven't seen each other in 3 years. We have daughters 10 days apart and the last time we were together they were a few months old. This time, they got to be buddies and it was a blast watching them interact, dining out, lounging, swimming, shopping (especially when Laura set off all the hopping gobbling turkeys down the Jo-Ann store aisle). The girl knows how to have fun anywhere. So she had to leave her one and a half year old home and come 6 months pregnant on a 4 hour plane ride with a very energetic and inquisitive 3 year old. That's a good friend :-) Here's the pictures of our girls....
They arrived late when Ellie was sleeping, but she knew they were coming and came right out when she heard them...she was excited but she is very shy at first, so outgoing little Jane jumped right into the introductions..."Hi Ellie...wanna play?" To which Ellie replied nothing but a shy coy smile while frozen in one spot from nerves.....so what else to get Ellie playing than....
tickling of course! Smart girl. That got an instant smile on Ellie's face and two seconds later....
good buddies.
So they....jumped on beds,
Watched Harold and The Purple Crayon when Ellie needed her down time.....the girl is just like her Mommy,
played ring around the rosie,
swam,
bathed...because Laura said I needed to bathe my child once in a while,
were goofballs, said plenty of silly things and potty word things and giggled to their hearts content....
and Ellie has missed her ever since. She keeps saying, "Mommy where's my sister?"
