Weekend Long Playdate with the Corvalis Crew


Scott, Carolina, Lucia and Oscar came into town this weekend. It was our weekend of potty training so there was much demonstration involved by big girl Lucia. However I think that this portion of the weekend was a failure. Those folded arms are a defiant pose against big girl panties.

Despite this failure the girls had a blast together screeching, sharing dolls, and just smiling a ton. Caro made a comment about how kids smile and laugh so much more than adults. I can't remember the numbers but it was like we laugh twice a day but kids laugh five billion times. The nice part is when you are with kids you get to laugh right along with them all day long.
Little monkey man Oscar gets right in there. He doesn't get left behind and finds the girls a hoot to watch.

It is fun to see how play is evolving with them. They really play together now instead of the side-by-side play. They made games of hide and seek, coloring and reading books.
The reading was especially interesting to watch as they will share with each other little fun things in their books. I was telling my mom about our weekend. She commented that we are so blessed to have found our own family of friends out here in the Pacific Northwest. I can't wait for some fun Westie trips with them this summer.
