Downloading pics vs posting is very different! I looked in my camera and I still have pics of Espen in my camera from the day he was born on Jan 3!
I really do suck at it, don't I?

Yeah... well... don't call it a "play date" in front of the girls. If I remember correctly.... 11 year old girls think that they are 16. On the other hand, they will think that you are like.... omg.... 30!
Should be fine. But you will have to overcome the food issues at lunch right off the bat! (Come on... you are an 11 year old girl, you go to lunch with another 11 year old girl, from a different school... and a lady who is like.... omg.... 30!) One of you three is going to be self-conscious.:blush5:
It went great, I had so much fun, Michelle arrived at 8:00 and I told her she could hang out and watch TV in my room while I worked, I was cool because I had a DVR and happened to have taped Dancing with the stars which she had missed the night before, so she watched that and another animal show I taped, then she napped until I said time for lunch. took her and the other girl to Applebees, the other girl, Danielle ordered a spinach salad with shrimp! I ordered the same thing, we laughed, talked and filled in the puzzle and games they had on the kids menu. Then we went to Wall mart to buy stuff to make cupcakes. I tired to drop the kids off like planned at Danielle's house, only her mother went out!!!! back at my house they played with or should I say terrorized Kirby, Mom came to get them in about 45 min, I said I would call at 4 and they could come back over. I called at 4:30 and they said your late, apparently they could not wait to get back here. I let them do all preparations on the batter, we sang, danced, and laughed the whole time. Then we went for a walk while everything was baking, I let them go in the backyard of a friends house that moved and they played in their tree-house and swings, "they kept asking are we going to get in trouble" then back home for the decorating frenzy. The other Mom picked them up at 7 and they were still not ready to go home. The cute thing is they really liked each other, there was a lot of teasing and laughing between all of us, each girl was sort of showing off in a nice way. They were all ready planning a sleepover by the time they left. I get a big kick out of kids and for some reason they seem to realize it and like to come around. Anyway it was a great day, even Kirby missed them when they left:biggrinjester:

That is cool. Sounds like you had as much fun as they did!
I am jealous, though.... when I was up there you didn't let us swing at the neighbors.

Barb that is so sad about your friend, it reminds me of the Natasha Richardson story, how did he bump his head?
I had a freaky fall this morning, after I got up I was headed downstairs with Kirby in my arms. Our stairs start out with two steps sort of sideways then a landing and then the staircase. Some how my left foot seemed to turn under and I went crashing on to the top landing. It seems like slow mo and I had time to get a better hold on Kirby and even though he fell out of my arms it wasn't until my arms were just a few inches off the floor so he did like a gentle roll, we were both pretty stunned, I put him on my lap and we just sat there for about 5 min. Luckily for me I fell on the short part and not the entire length of the staircase. The stairs are wood and I was wearing socks so I probably slipped.

Probably me, I almost said they could have the sleepover here
arty: Ian would kill me though.The sad thing is my niece is a year older and has played with both of the girls separately while she has been visiting, they even had sleepovers. But she is such a different kid so playing all together would not work, she would probably be left out. We don't know what is wrong with her, she was adopted from China at 1 and has never been a bubbly, smiling, happy girl. She angers and pouts easily, has some speech problems and just can seem to socialize easy, when you try to bring things out of her she just wines a lot, all her sentences seemed dragged out, like mmmmmmmmmmmmmom i don't wannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnt to, why mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmom, you saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaid ask her a question and all you get are I dunno know, I don't care. As hard as I have tried, I never could have had a day like that with her. My sister has spent a ton of money on early intervention, testing, social skill classes, speech therapy, counseling, things like horseback riding lessons and nothing seems to bring her joy, very little smiles, it's very sad because as she gets older the kids notice her personality or lack of it more and now she is starting to loose the few friends she had. She is smart enough to realize that she's not popular or accepted but can't seem to understand how to keep it from happening.

That's tough. One thing I have always wondered about adoption is if you can ever over come the basic programing a child gets from there natural parents. I have a 13yo daughter, and 12 stepdaughter. They are night and day differant, but there are few things better, or tougher than watching a girl change into a young lady!
