Today was just a day for my daughter and I. I considering going out somewhere to do something. But then I thought, why not relax today. It feels like we are always going places, rushing from place to place to do things and get things done. Sometimes my daughter just needs to be home
together--and we both enjoy it. So we kept it
simple and played at home.
So, instead of going out...
we hosted a tea party. A baby doll tea party.
Together we got out the easy bake oven (that my daughter has wanted to use for awhile), found a recipe and baked a mini cake. We also made some graham cracker cookies with chocolate frosting (one of my favorite treats growing up). We got out her little card table, spread a table cloth, and then set the table with my nice china dishes. Instead of tea we filled the tea pot with milk and I sliced a few plums to balance out the sweets.
After the table was set, my daughter collected her baby dolls and we all gathered around the table for the tea party.
After we were done eating we played one UNO--a fun, family card game. We both had so much fun today--talking, pretending, and laughing together!
