Kayla is a real helper. She wanted to set the table. So she found a "fork" (a Trio Block piece) and a "plate" (a Dora game card).
She proceeded to set the entire table that way.
Megan, on the other hand, was Miss Independent. She was going somewhere with mommy's lap top bag, and quite proudly! She picked some interesting jammies that evening, too.

Megan and Kayla and "Red Teddy"
Kayla really took a liking to "Red Teddy". He never had any name more than that, but she was quite attached to him for quite a while. Every night she had to take him to bed.
He had a mechanism inside to make him talk in response to sounds -- but we had him turned off.
She didn't know he talked until one night he got switched on.
Megan, Kayla, Penni and Grandma
Grandma and her dog, Penni, come over to visit. The girls like Penni, and she's very good with them!
Right before Thanksgiving, one of the local stations showed the cartoon, Elf On a Shelf. Grandma had given us the book, so we got into our jammies and went over to Grandma's house to watch it.
The next day, "Chilly" the elf came to visit! The girls were so excited to find him!
Every once in a while they will ask about him, and it's been almost 8 months since he last visited on Christmas Eve. They kept forgetting his name, and called him Pinochio.
Except Megan can't pronounce it, and calls him "Nokio".
He'll come back again around Thanksgiving this year, I'm sure.
