While Drew is at school, it’s just me and the girls. We get down and dirty in our girlyness, that way Drew doesn’t feel like he missed out on anything. Here are a few of the activities we occupy ourselves with…

We make cookies.

And play games.

Rowan usually does this giving Brinley and I plenty of big girl time.

We play with dollies. Meet Elena, the polly pocket on steroids…

Sometimes we play school with the schnazzy new backpack and school supplies G&G J sent.

We paint our nails.

And our toenails.

On the rare occasion that Rowan gets a bottle, Brinley loves to sit and feed her.

We dress up and pretend we are royalty.

We chat and come up with crazy hairdo’s.

We count her freckles.

Sometimes we clean house. While I mop the floor, Brinley gets to perch on the kitchen table and play with play-doh. Ah, the life.

Sometimes I wonder if she notices Drew’s absence. By the time she does, it’s time to go pick him up.
