Day Twenty-one and Counting...

Grace really loves the dollhouse that she got from her grandparents for Christmas, and I have noticed a big change in the way that she gets involved in her imaginary play.  The dolls don't hang out in the house as much as outside it, but she very carefully arranges her little family in the furniture in various dioramas.  The conversations are sometimes very revealing...
This morning, she was playing with the mommy and baby girl.  She was talking about the baby having to wait just a few minutes more, then mommy would feed her, that mommy has lots of jobs to take care of.  She was carefully balancing the baby on the mommy's arms and asking her to lay still so mommy could hold her.

"Mommy, she is trying to feed her baby, just like you feed Olivia!"

Here, she has a goofy grin because I caught her talking to her dolls again, and she was embarrassed! 

Too cute!

Olivia loves nothing better than being right in the middle of whatever Grace is doing.  And playing with the dollhouse really tops that list!  She loves peeking through the windows and around the sides, and giggling at Grace.
