Julia stayed with us overnight, which meant huge amounts of excitement for Maelyn. We weren't even out of the car to pick her up at school and Maelyn was already calling out for her Julia. The two of them giggled and danced to the music all the way home.
After homework, making Julia's lunch, dinner, and then bathing, the girls were ready for a night of fun!
Paul, Julia and Maelyn played flashlight hide and seek...I have no idea how that game is played -- I was at Zumba class and Paul apparently invented the game. When I got home, we put the girls to bed. Maelyn desperately wanted to stay with Julia and tried her best to convince us that she could stay with her -- even pretending that she was asleep!
Today, after we dropped Julia off at school, Maelyn and I tackled a baking project together. I wanted to make some apple desserts to use up some of the apples we had picked.
Maelyn grabbed the apple I had peeled and started munching...
Helping Mama clean up...
Ready to be baked...
Okay -- I set off the alarm....apparently these muffins are BIG ones...ooops!!
Oh well....they were still pretty tasty!
Once we were done baking and tidying, Maelyn found her bin of winter wear and decided to try on every single thing....and then chose a hat to wear during lunch...
What a great way to spend the past few days -- with friends and a little one I love dearly.
