Tonight E. asked me to play dolls with her. I finally agreed. I don't really like to play. My girls are very dramatic, and if I suggest something, one of them always changes my suggestion. So, I get mad and leave! Haha! So it's better that they play by themselves! Which they actually did earlier today! It was so wonderful to hear them from the living room playing so nicely! And for quite a while too! And then, a scream pierced the air, and the wailing started. Apparently nail polish was thrown against a throat, and that was the end of the peaceful playtime. :(
Anyway, tonight, E. wanted someone to play with. I felt bad for her, so I told her I would. Here's a play by play:
- I was given a barbie, and she had a mini Bratz doll (named Belle) and another mini doll (named Haleigh) (surprising to some, I know!). I asked her what my girl's name should be. She suggested Haleigh, which I turned down as boring. She gasped and looked up real quick and said, "I know a great name! Erin!" I said that that would be perfect!
- We were going to Dora's house (which is Belle's treehouse) for lunch. I rang the doorbell, and walked inside. She said "I'm so glad you came over, Erin! I have something for you!" I followed her into the kitchen, and she had me sit down at the table. She was serving lunch! She started eating, and I asked her what we were eating. She was going on and on about how delicious her meal was! She answered, "It's penne!" LOL! (I guess she listens when I'm cooking!)
- She decided that we should go to Dora's pool and hang out and swim in the deep end. My barbie took up the whole pool, but that's ok! I spied Batman and Dora figurines and invited them to come over and swim too. I stood them up on the deck of the pool and started having a conversation with them. E.'s Belle took Batman inside Dora's house and E started whispering back and forth like they were having a whisper fight! She came back down, and apologized for being gone! Haha! I said, "Is everything ok? Do you want me to leave?" She replied with a laugh, "Oh no! Everything's fine, dear!" LOLOL
-E. set up some little houses in a semi-circle, and those were her hair salons. I asked her if she had any customers, to which she responded with, No, they don't buyed things here."
-She brought a dog out of one of the houses and was showing me. I said, "Oh, what a cute doggie! What's her name?" She said, "Sniffy." I had to ask, "Does she sniff a lot?" She said in all seriousness, "All the time."
-After saying that Erin was going to bed for the night, E. said that she was going to her "real house" (the doll house), and sat down to play. She looked at the upheaval around the back of the house, and said with a pout, "My house is so trashy! But, I can make it so beautiful!"
Playing dolls with E. is actually funny! The things that she says are hysterical!
