Vann and I had our first real foray into the world of two yesterday. Emilyn came to play and “sleep over” (while her Mommy and Daddy treated themselves to an awesome anniversary dinner!) and it was quite the experience. You couldn’t ask for a sweeter little girl than Emi Sue, and she and Charlie love spending time together, so that part of it was perfect…but we had never done the bathtime/bedtime routine for two at the same time (and of the same age) and now I have a whole new respect for my Mom friends who do it every day!!

Between all the screaming, running around, spaghetti-covered faces and hands, splashing in the tub, and general mischief-making, Vann and I dropped at 8 pm. I should say that we always LOVE having Emi over, and it was a ball, but man, two is just a whole new ballgame. GREAT practice for what’s to come…and watching Vann have a dance party with the girls…the chorus of giggles…was really a sweet sound to end our evening.

Here are some pics of Charlie and Emilyn outside…
