Bathtime Fun

Dear Emily ~
Kaitlynn came over to play today for the afternoon, and although she had her first timeout with me here because she hit you with a shoe, you guys had a great time!
Playing with someone so close to your age, or development, caused some issues to arrise. She wanted to sit in your doll stroller, you wanted to push it without her in it. She wanted to stay, you wanted her out. You have quite the voice on you, my dear. No room to question your thoughts! Try to be patient with her Emily, she is such a sweet little girl but tries to rough and tumble as much as her older brother does. He's 3yrs older.
Kaitlynn was born 9/4, just a handful of days before I tried to see if you were ready to start growing and join our family. She's a pretty special little one.
Tonight you tried hot dogs for the first time, cut in to small rounds and then in to quarters. I handed you a fork and watched you so carefully pick up each little piece with your fork. How come some kids choose to eat with forks and spoons while others choose their hands? You don't seem to mind taking the time to eat this way :)
Following dinner, the two of you girls definitely needed a bath and in to the tub you went. You thought this was FUN! Next time I'll pour in the tub toys and welcome the two of you to hang out play in the water for a while :)
It was great to have two girls to wash down, and wash hair, who didn't mind water running over their face. Sure makes things easier! Your sister Katie hated having water near her face with a passion. Not so easy to wash a toddlers hair in cases like this. You though, no problems at all :)
