Still gushing about the girls.
Mar. 4th, 2012 10:59 pmTwo totally cute stories about my nieces from the weekend:
On Friday, Lucy and Frankie were playing dress-up in the other room while I hung out with Rachel and Bess. Suddenly they broke into a screaming match over who would get to wear a certain dress. Rachel was breastfeeding so it was up to me to go in and referee. I think I did a pretty fantastic job of it, and they went back to playing happily. They eventually got to wrestling, as they often do, and Lucy accidentally knocked Frankie over. Frankie yelped and cried a little bit, and Lucy immediately apologized.
Lucy: I'm really sorry, Frankie!
Frankie: It's okay, Lucy. But that hurt a lot.
I just thought it was adorable how they'd scream at each other over sharing a dress, but that they were so delightfully civil with each other in this incident of actual pain and suffering.
Then that evening, Ethan was over and the girls were going to bed. They give hugs all around as they say goodnight, and after Frankie hugged Ethan, she held out her fist to him and said "Fist bump, Ethan!" And they totally fist bumped and it was the greatest thing I'd ever seen in my life.
Bonus story, but probably not as cute: Bess took back-to-back-to-back-to-back shits this morning, in the span of about five minutes. That's my girl!
