These two little girls met at the first Meet up with the Louisiana Moms Club at Tiny Town Play Area in October of 2008. Savannah was 18 months old on that day and Hannah was a few months older. They did not play well that day. Hannah could climb everywhere and Savannah could not. Hannah tried to "help" Savannah by trying to pull and push her into doing all the play areas. Hannah's Momma Heather really seemed like a nice Mom. Little did I know that this would be one of Savannah's good friends among many others she made that week!
They have done many things together. Music Class, swimming, movies, playing at the Louisiana Board Walk, playgroups, meeting up at the park, going to lunch together and now they are at the same preschool. They are not in the same class and that may just be a good thing for their teachers, but they do get to do many events together.
The past few days have been pretty tough ones around here. This morning was no exception. Savannah screamed for about 45 minutes. She was refusing to wear any of the clothes I chose for her. She only wanted to wear clothes with the picture of a princess on it. We have two princess t shirts, both short sleeve and too tight. I do not usually let her wear these clothes out of the house. These are with her play clothes. Savannah has a closet full of beautiful custom clothes in addition to clothes from Old Navy, Target, Children's Place, Gap and Gymboree. She wanted to wear a short sleeve pink princess t shirt and black pants with skulls on them from Halloween a year ago! She went out of the house wearing purple polka dot pants/leggings with a pink stripe fleece shirt and boots, no hair bow. It just about killed me. It still was NOT what she wanted to wear, but she quickly put something on when I told her that Hannah would be coming back home with us after morning preschool.
The conversations have been so funny and silly. The girls had a lunchable for lunch. Hannah told me she did not like the cheese. She only likes Chunky Cheese? She taught Savannah how to make a cracker sandwich with the ham. Savannah was very impressed. Hannah went to nap time and Savannah to quiet time. They hugged and said they would miss each other.
When they both got up it was playtime. I gave them Valentine conversation hearts for being such good girls. Lately when they play they fight over toys and run around giggling or screaming so loud that I think the cops are going to show up. Not today, not yet anyway!
They have played a game together and are watching Sleeping Beauty. The best thing is listening to their pretend play. Apparently Hannah is the Mommy and Savannah is the baby! Hannah came out a bit ago to tell me that Savannah said the word Stupid. Savannah came to tell me that Hannah stuck her tongue out. I went to talk to both of them and they were hugging!
At the moment life is good in this house, girls are happy laying on pillow pets, drinking chocolate milk, eating cheez-its and I am here by the fire on this cold day!
Maybe what we need around this house is another child... hmmmmm. Things always seem easier on days like this!
