Now I'm no professional, but here are my observations anyway...
On a separate occasion, I find her playing...
...And where is Daddy?
Eventually, the girls go to bed (I wasn't around to photograph/document who was in charge of THAT operation, but judging by what we see in the above photos, I'm guessing it was Mommy)
Reese: It's you and Daddy, watching a Mommy show. (what we use to refer to anything we don't let them watch...pretty much anything that isn't a cartoon or sports)
Meg: Well if that's Me, and that's Daddy, then who's that other lady on the chair?
Reese: That's Kasey! Jimmie's in Panama.
so there you go, Kasey...not only do you get to see our world through the eyes of a 4 yr old, but you get to see yours, too!
Another day, Reese gives us a preview of coming attractions. A look into the future, after Brother has arrived...
Reese: Waah! Waaah! Waaa! (crying)
Meg: What's going on in here? Are you ok? What's the matter?
Reese: Oh, it's not me, it's Brother. He just won't stop crying because he is hungry.
And then I see this:
Other play scenes from the future after Brother arrives:
Grandma comes to visit, and sleeps on a chair in the living room.
Mommy changes Baby's diaper.
Mommy changes Baby's diaper, while Daddy kicks it in the rocking chair with a book.I showed this picture to Aaron and he claimed that she posed him as "reading scriptures to the family".
Is that a tv in the background?

Wow, that must be the coolest doll house ever. I love it.
That's awesome! It's amazing to see all the thoughts that swirl through her head. She's going to be just like you.
she IS you!
super cute!
hah. this is great. of course he is reading the scriptures. that's what dad's do all day, right?
Think of all the $ you're saving her in therapy! She's totally working though any issues/anxiety she might encounter through her dollhouse. :) Love it!
Hey, did you happen to catch any pictures of the mommy stealing the The Joshua Tree and Pop from the Uncle?
PS: This will be my final demand for reparations, as my CDs are now on Itunes and available for sale.
dear brother,
let the record state that the U2 albums I stole from you were zooropa, the unforgettable fire, and auchtung baby.
I was old enough to buy pop myself...as well as tickets to the concert because you did not love me enough to let me tag along. I didn't own joshua tree until college and discovered Aaron had a copy and knew we were meant for each other.
I also stole: the cure mixes and remixes and show, a savage garden single (yeah, admit you owned it first) lightening seeds, the verve, big willy style, bjork, hits of 80's: '87, '88, and '89, and a Beck cd that you later stole back.
All other cds were merely "borrowed", used for a few weeks, then returned back into the stack after I'd made a mixed tape of my favorites.
I haven't put my music on itunes yet. I should learn how to do that.
And Thank you for your musical enabling. I might have ended up an NSync, Barnaked Ladies, Matchbox 20, or Garbage fan were it not for you...instead of cleaning my house to Hot August Nights right now.
we can forget about the whole savage garden incident...the song was catchy and I think we all fell for it.
Commmon-a-Yeah-haw!
That doll house and the girls that control it are so cute. My Mimers needs a cute doll house. Where did you find it and can you keep your eyes open for me one? You are a great bargain shopper, me I am terrible with any kind of money dealings and should not be allowed access to any money or exchanges of money. It burns holes in my pockets, wallets, purses, and even my check book has substantial holes. I seriously need help or therapy or both:)
Breanne-I can't take credit for the fabulous dollhouse, I am incredibly lucky. It was a gift from my friend, Missie, who's daughter just outgrew the dollhouse phase. You are crafty, you should totally just build one...make the kid that is like a bookshelf with an a-frame peaked roof from a bunch of 2x8's. Then, when Mills outgrows it, she can store her books on it. You can buy furniture, people etc. separately at Walmart one room at a time for $5-$15 and give them to her for birthdays and holidays!
I was blessed to get mine for free, but seriously, it IS worth the money...my girls have had the dollhouse for 3 months and they play with it EVERY SINGLE DAY for at least an hour. At least. I had NO IDEA how much use it would get. They LOVE it.
you could even purchase a piece of peel and stick vinyl flooring for 75 cents to be the "floor" in the kitchen, and get a free carpet sample for the living room. You could paper the little walls, and put real shingles on the roof! Oh Imagine the fun you could have! A mini house to remodel!
ok now I want to build one, just for fun, and lack of having to do any plumbing or electrical work.
My sister-in-law, Ashley Danes, told me about your blog! I love it. You are so funny! It's nice to read your take on all the crazy things that our kids and husbands do that make us laugh or cry!
