While we set up our Christmas tree, we had White Christmas on in the background. A few days later, we were playing in the basement and Katelyn walked up to Elyse, put her hand on her shoulder and said, "We're the Hanes sisters!" And then proceeded to dance around singing, "Sisters, sisters!"
And I love this sister act. They are really beginning to enjoy each other's company and play together.
Last Sunday they pretended to be on a boat saving Bear from shark infested waters. This is their boat, and the roll basket is Bear's life boat. I love Elyse's face in this picture. She is elated when Katelyn includes her in playtime.
Which is funny/weird, because this is what usually ends up happening. She pushes and bosses her around.
This hat is Elyse's fisher-lady hat. It doesn't fit Katelyn, but she loves to put it on Elyse.
She is a sweet fisher lady!
I took this picture and then told Katelyn she looked like she was dancing like Tevye from Fiddler on the Roof.
So she started dancing like Tevye on purpose. .
"If I were a rich man....."
She is so happy and silly sometimes. I love it
Then the rescue boat became a couch and the girls watched the Christmas Devotional and ate popcorn together. Cute, cute, cute.
Tonight the girls were playing in the basement. Katelyn came up in her Snow White dress and said, "I'm Snow White and Elyse is Cinderella." Sure enough she had put her Cinderella dress on Elyse. Elyse couldn't walk in it because it was too long, but she was happy to be involved. (Please look at her smiling face and ignore the fact that she smeared a fried egg through her hair at dinner!)
And Katelyn was so proud of herself.
I love my little princess sisters! May their relationship continue to grow. It is wonderful to have sisters, but even better when your sisters can be some of your best friends!
