Christmas Week Fun!

Since we will be in Arkansas over Christmas, we decided to let the girls open their gifts a little early over a few days. Today we let them open the big ones. Mariele got a balance bike. I have not taken pictures of that yet. Analese got the lemonade stand / grocery store. She has been really wanting to have a lemonade stand. I made her a pitcher of lemonade, and at first she was a bit disappointed that I was not letting her sell lemonade on the curb to total strangers. However, she soon realized the fun of practicing and pretending. She charged a dollar for half a dixie cupful, and Lee and I got several refills (but talked her down to a quarter a cup). This toy worked very well with their existing toy food and cash register. They had lots of fun with it.

How fun! I really want to get Sophia a kitchen (which we of course have no room for) but Matthew says next year when she's older. We're settling on play food, pots and pans and a tea set!

Oh, I love it!!! I wanted to get that for my girlfriends too! I can foresee your girls having tons of fun with that for years to come.
