Sister fun

The girls have started playing together just in the past few days and it is awesome to see.

Amelia got a sandbox from her Aunt Liz & Uncle Scott for her birthday and it was finally warm enough to set it up. She was so happy (and so are we because she is occupied for long stretches of time....)

But she also let her sister join her in the sandbox!

Then inside before bed they played together at their activity where we dumped flour for them to play with.... Amelia was talking to Zoe and Zoe was just, as you can see below, eating flour :
Happy girl - she really gets it that her sister is someone she can play with . I love love love it.

"Let's wrestle"

Last night Zoë was crying after I put her to bed and so Amelia said to me, "I will go check on her." She headed on upstairs and the crying stopped. I was fixing something in the kitchen and after about 5 minutes thought I'd go see what was going on. As I am heading up the stairs I hear lots of squealing and then Amelia said, "Let's wrestle."

I turn the corner into the room and see this:Zoë saw me come into the room and let out a huge high pitched shriek of excitement. If I could have translated for her it would have been "MOM, AMELIA CAME AND GOT IN MY BED AND IS PLAYING WITH ME AFTER YOU LEFT!" She was so unbelievably happy and thrilled - it was as though she knew it was special and that she knew they were being naughty. I laughed with her and was so happy to see them together like this. I immediately yelled downstairs and said, "Daddy, you'd better get up here and see these girls!"


BOINGGGGGGGGGG!!!!


Amelia said, "Let's cuddle."


My heart still swells with joy when I look at these pictures, which, interestingly, are a bit fuzzy from the iPhone because SOMEONE was using our digital camera last night and put it "away" on a shelf somewhere... That someone just turned 3...
