Sweet play

Today, Maddy and Reagan continued their playtime in the living room. They had their dollhouses all set up and they had so much fun. They had a movie theatre set up on the coffee table and Maddy had a sleeping house set up (not a hotel).  They played between "worlds" as they called it and flew all around the house on their horses.

I love watching the play.

Playing sweet

For the last two days, the girls have been home from school with a babysitter. I got home tonight and they were playing together - superhero. Reagan had on her SuperGirl outfit. Maddy had her princess outfit on (of course) and then had one of Reagan's blankets tied around her neck. They were playing "house" together with the various dollhouses in the living room together. I love watching them play together so well.

Pipi Longstockings

When I got to school today, Reagan had turned her pigtail braids into Pipi Longstocking braids. It was so darn cute. She was proud of her little hairdo as well. She told us all about it. The other cool thing - she brought home her French work. She had drawn out a full-sized person and labeled all the body parts in French. How cool is that?

Maddy is flat out goofy

I got to school today and walked through the door and my little Maddy was walking around like Ed Grimly. It was hilarious. She was making some random goofy noise. She couldn't stop laughing - she just kept on going and making everyone else laugh too. I love the fact that she is so goofy. It makes me laugh all the time.

Strep day two

Well, she can't be held down by much. She rested as much as she could stand today, but got pretty bored. She wanted to get up and dance and play. We did play board games today, but I tried my best to keep her settled. I wanted her to have a couple days of the medicine before she got too active again. Too much of my mom in me huh.

Maddy and Mom

Not only did Reagan stay home with strep, the school notified us that the pre-K kids had to leave early as well. My mom volunteer to watch Maddy and even nap her for us. Wow. We got there and I had my little pow-wow with Maddy about being good and napping for Mimi.

She did!

She told Mimi after a bit of play time that it was time to go take a nap and proceeded to walk Mimi upstair and crawled into bed. Cute.

Strep wins

Turns out Reagan has strep. She's been complaining a bit about her throat hurting so we kept her from church last night and then school today to take her to the doctor. Jim took her. Apparently she did NOT like the strep test - the swab in the back of the throat. She apparently got so stinkin' mad that she screamed and then tried to leave the room. The nurse let her know that she would be leaving and she could stay with her dad. Next thing, she huddled up in the corner of the room, wedged between the table and chair and just started crying. She was not happy.

Jim took her to the grocery to get her meds and then stuff for her throat. Jello, pudding, popsicles and tapioca. So today she sat around and probably watched more TV than I want to admit.  I had to work and I really wanted to keep her still and not run around. The iPad didn't leave her side for hours. Oh well. At least she is rested and ready for tomorrow.
