She's ready to go

Just needs a vehicle.

Apparently,

my house is cold.

Eda tries so hard...

to be big.

First we rake

 then we play:

Eda

I got out my old infant carseat to give to a friend. I set it in the living room and when I came back I found it occupied.

I guess Eda remembered it although she hasn't used it in over six months. She made herself comfortable and played in and out of it until my friend came by. Eda was none too happy when my friend took the carseat away.

First ever painted faces:

Hair stylists

Ruby and Cora fixed each other's hair. Ruby is getting pretty good at braiding and Cora does a pretty good twist.

At least the sun isn't in her eyes:

The experiment:

 The result:

I finally found a way to curl Cora's hair! Ruby wouldn't let me style her hair, she wanted wild curls.

Birthday Fun

I let Ruby and Cora buy each other birthday gifts from the dollar store. These dolls are what they got. Let's just say they know each other very well. I took Ruby shopping first. She kept looking at the purple mermaid doll before finally picking the other doll for Cora. When I took Cora she went straight for the mermaid dolls, picked up a red one, then put it back and got the purple. I didn't tell her anything.

Are you hungry?

 There's even dessert:

Happy Belated Halloween!

P.S. Note the sprinkles on Lil's costume. Those are mike&ike candies, hot glued on. Eda just knew they were candy. She tried at first to pull them off. That didn't work. Then she went straight in with her teeth. Much more effective. I don't know if she ate any glue before we caught on, but she ate into quite a few of the candies. Luckily this all happened after Halloween.

I'm not the only one...

who gets their names mixed up. I overheard this today:
Ruby, "Eda, stop!"
Cora, "I'm not Eda! I'm Ru-I'm Cora!"
