A Great Day in the Life of a Toddler

Last Monday we babysat for one of my good friend's little girls, who you've seen in an earlier post. Emily and Ella get along great and love to spend time together. (Aside from the occasional 2 yr old tiffs over taking each other's toys.) :)
I think they played with every toy imaginable in the first hour or two they were together. They do a great job of destroying a house. Here they are making laps with their strollers. They took turns following each other around.



Next they moved on to destroying the bedroom. They're taking a quick break from all their work!



Making Brad look pretty; it's a tough job! :)



Quick pose for a picture.



Then we had to do some dancing. The characters had hats on, so of course they had to too!



It was a beautiful Fall day, so we decided to take the girls to Jefferson Pointe to run around for awhile. We hit the play area in the food court first, and they had a blast! They're the perfect age for this.





Had to take a break for a snack...but not before lots of handwashing and sanitizing, of course! ;)




We headed outside and there were a lot of Halloween decorations set up. They were climbing all over this Haunted House. I couldn't get both of them to pose at the same time for a pic.



Caught looking very guilty. Trying to stuff those little pumpkins in those little pockets???



Had to take a pic of the cowgirl/boy. I was laughing because Brad was back behind trying to hold both girls up to the holes, and was getting wet and muddy from having to kneel in the muddy grass. Oh, the sacrifices we make for a good picture.... I wasn't mean enough to ask him to retake it. :)



And last, but not least, we ended up at Barnes and Noble. Ella loves to play with the train there.



The girls were both so good for us, I love days like that! They were so tired and took a good nap then were up and at 'em again! Recharged for more demolishing of the house.....
