Playing baby

One of the girls' favorite games to play together is "Mommy-Baby," where Resli pretends to be the Mommy and Lela pretends to be a little baby. (Lela is getting tired of this more often lately, with an angry "I'm NOT a baby!", but it had a good run.) There are all kinds of scenarios involved in this game, from feeding to diapering to everything in between. Picking baby up was a relatively new addition, one which made the real parents very nervous.

Not only is it generally unsafe, but Lela only weighs about a pound and a half less than Resli. So we knew it had to end badly at some point. As, you can see, it did:

You'd think these resulting looks of defeat and hurt knees would help them learn their lesson -

- but of course not. It's still on the top of their list of fun things to do. We just try to avoid doing it on concrete and other similarly unforgiving surfaces.
