Clara and Emma enjoyed a visit to Home Depot where Clara and Emma found a nice big puddle in th garden section and went jumping. Then it was off to Creative Playthings to check out swings, as in a few days, the neighbors are giving the Gornstein gang their swingset! Clara and Emma loved checking out all the slides and swings in the showroom. And, they both went to the ladies room. Since the haircut place was in the same shopping complex, Mommy and Daddy decided to take the ladies. Clara and Emma both got haircuts and their hair blown dry for the first time. They got princess ducks as their prize at the end and were very excited!
The afternoon featured more tantrums by Emma and more "mommying" by Clara. Emma would push Clara and Clara would say "bad girl Emma, go to naughty corner." Mommy and Daddy spent lots of time bouncing from telling Emma no to explaining to Clara that only Mommy and Daddy discipline Clara. Like ping pong disciplne.
Before bed, Emma didn't want to try going to the bathroom and then finally sat on the real potty with the Dora seat. Once she went, she announced "it wasn't that bad. I did it. I made a big deal."
Emma hit Mommy by accident with her blankie and then looked at Mommy, said "I'm sorry," and then both Clara and Emma said "we love you" and gave hugs to Mommy. Emma found a card from one of her games and gave it to Mommy and said "this card will make you feel better."
Mommy shouted "go to sleep." Daddy turned to Mommy and said "they can't hear you." No sooner did he finish his sentence did Clara say "okay, Mommy. Good night. We just talking." A good laugh was had by Mommy and Daddy.
On the potty training front, the ladies had another dry day! They went out at two different places and also told Mommy and Daddy that they had to go.
