The girls were playing with two of their dolls this evening. At one point I had Megan calling her yellow-haired doll "Baby Susie", and Kayla calling her plastic doll "Baby Mary". Somehow, though, "Baby Mary" became "Baby Susie" as well. I think it was some time after she had her doing somersaults on the floor.
They decided it was time for the doll babies to go to bed, so they trotted off to their room with their blankets and dolls. Kayla tucked "Baby
Mary Susie" in bed on the floor under one of her blankets. She wanted me to take a picture of her baby.
Kayla got herself ready by putting on her favorite "big tutu" -- inside out. It's a well-loved tutu, with no hem left. In fact, all the trim had to be cut off so she wouldn't trip over it. And she INSISTS it is supposed to be worn with the lining outside, and the tulle ruffles inside. She wears it nearly every night.
Meanwhile, Megan wrapped her "Baby Susie" in a blanket, then sat in their rocker. You can see her doll's yellow hair outside the blanket, against Megan's yellow jammie shirt. She rocked back and forth and sang, "Jesus Loves Me" to her doll. I suspect this might be part of Granny's routine for tucking them in bed, but I haven't confirmed that. Too cute not to get a picture!
And then both girls asked me to take a picture of Loki.
And of course I obliged!
