first blog..and other firsts :-)

So I'm just starting to blog...

This weekend we had a couple of other "firsts" at our house.

Angel had her FIRST SLEEPOVER. She invited a friend that she goes to daycare with to our home to play and have a sleepover on friday night. At first her friend, Renee, was a little shy (this being her first time to sleep over at someone's house that wasn't family). But after a some warming up she was one of the family. Angel and Renee spent the evening playing dress-up, house, and littlest pet shop. Then we all watched a movie, The Great Mouse Detective, together. Renee was ready to go to bed and kept asking "Is it bedtime yet?" So after the movie everyone brushed their teeth and got pajamas on and got into bed... It was only 8:45pm. We did our usual bedtime routines: read a book, call mom, say prayer, and hug and kisses and tucking in. The girls were way too excited to sleep and spent the next hour and a half talking and giggling in bed! I remember those days! They all finally crashed around 10:00pm... And were up again before 7:00am! We ate some cereal (kids voted and this was the consensus) then Angel and Renee wanted to take a bath and play. Jasmine hung out with me and took a bath after the girls. Renee's mom came to get her around 10:30am and Renee was NOT ready to go! She wanted to stay and play longer... I told her we would do this again soon! Fun times!

Jasmine had her first PLAYDATE at our house today. Jasmine invited her friend Addy from daycare to play at our house for a few hours. Addy was not sure about letting her dad go when he dropped her off but quickly warmed up to playing with the girls. Angel mostly hung out with me and didn't want to play with the little girls but that was just fine! Jasmine and Addy played with Jasmine's pony, Smartcycle, playdough, and baby dolls. The playdate was GREAT! Addy wanted to stay longer when her mother came to pick her up... The girls entered into a wild game of chase all through the living room and playroom while I talked with Addy's mom. We agreed to do this again soon. So much fun!

Weird side note, Angel's two friends that she has ahd playdates with, Kinley and Renee, AND Jasmine's friend Addy ALL have moms with the first name Tiffany! Strange coincidence! I'm going to be so confused when their moms call me!
