This whole last year has been one of ups and downs for Maddi and Ella as they have worked on developing their own little bond with Mia being gone all day and Ella becoming old enough to want to be a part of things. I remember this a bit with Mia and Maddi so I've tried to take a deep breath during the down moments and remind myself that once they work out the kinks (which may not be until they are grown and out of the house!) :) they will be BEST FRIENDS and it will all be worth it. In the last month though I've started to see the lights go on for the two of them and I'm finally seeing more Up moments than down which means longer periods of playing together without fighting or at least with disagreements they are able to work through on their own!
How does this relate to REALLY WHITE/POWDERY FACES?!!!
Well one day during quiet time they had gone into the garage to play and were playing so well and quietly that I didn't want to stop the flow. Finally I decided it was almost too quiet and so after and hour or so I peeked in to find the two of them covered in Baby Powder! Most people that live near a beach know that baby powder is a staple (for anyone that hasn't tried it...baby powder is WONDERFUL for getting sand off your feet and legs)...and we always have a bottle in our car for those frequent beach trips. I walked in right as they were ADDING WATER to the baby powder...not a good combo...so the fun had to end but I think they felt like it was all worth it. :)
