since i'm big on showing photos of huge messes the last few days, how about one of the girl's messes? i found these photos from back in july, while they were on summer vacation. they don't play with toys all that much anymore. but every once in a while, they will take out something and play with it for a week or two straight. this time it was bratz dolls.
they will take out every single bratz doll, item of clothing, shoes, furniture, and cars that we own. which apparently, is a LOT! what you see in these photos is only half of what they actually had going on upstairs. and they spend a ton of time setting everything up and deciding who will have what dolls. it's like a whole little world. shopping centers, a school, houses and rooms, and even a party bus. and each tiny little accessory is set up just so.
if any of your daughters are missing a certain shoe or shirt, i'm pretty sure my girls have it. lol! and i find it amazing that they actually know all these items. "where is that brown boot? you know, the light brown boot with the dark brown heel and the little strap?". i'm not sure how they manage to keep track. but they do.
and then they actually play with this mess every day. for up to a week or two at a time. during this particular time, they went 5 nights straight without even turning the tv on. they would just sit up there and play together. it was so nice. since my girls usually can't sit anywhere near each other without fighting. and they also usually like to have the tv on. lol! this also means that we're stepping on bratz dolls and stuff for a week or two straight. it was so spread out, that you couldn't get through without stepping on something. but it was all good. and when they decide they're done, you'd be amazed at how quickly they can pick all that up.
and btw, i'm typing this post from MY laptop. not the girls laptop. but MY laptop! i got it back tonight. after a 4 week wait. a wait i was not happy about at all. but that is forgotten for now, and i'm happy to have it back. i feel like just maybe i can get back on track with things now 🙂
