Play Date with Spicy Girl

(Waiting patiently for SG)

Spicy Girl and Desheng Darling were the only two girls who could meet today for our playgroup. Everyone else is on vacation! Poor things….SB is in Hawaii! And CL is in New Mexico and SG just returned from her vacation at the beach! Since Daddy Darling is saving his vacation time to travel to China, DD will probably spend most of the summer at home, but that’s ok as long as she can get together with some of her friends every week. When we finally get to travel, our souvenir from China will make the wait worthwhile!

DD was so excited that SG had come to play. The girls started out making jewelry with colorful beads. The beads weren’t “popping” together like the instructions claimed that they would, so the activity didn’t last too long. The pictures on the box made it look so simple I think it will get easier as they get a little older. It seemed like a good idea at the time.

Then the girls enjoyed playing in DD’s Dora kitchen, pretending to make cookies and coffee. After a little pretending…we got to the good stuff…making our own cookies! They were yummy! What did we do before the “break and bake?” This is as close to "scratch" at we get around our house. LOL

They played pretty well today with only a little bit of fussing, and this was primarily due to being overly tired. It couldn’t possibly be because they are a little spoiled and accustomed to getting their own way…Nah…no way. Why did that thought even enter my mind?

(DD is upset about something….can’t even remember now what it was.)
