The Flatware Fight

What the girls have been fighting over lately -- Who gets to use the one set of child-size flatware we own?

I purchased the initial set for Hannah a few years back. But now that toddler-size utensils are not working out for Emma any longer, she wants to use the sleek stainless steel models she sees sis using. Admittedly, Hannah can use the smaller forks and spoons from our normal silverware sets, but she much prefers these.

I finally broke down today and ordered a couple more sets. Hopefully this issue is settled for awhile.

Next?

When sister's away...

Hannah has gone to stay with Grandma and Grandpa in Kansas City for part of the week. She left with them on Sunday and I'll meet her and my mom in Emporia on Friday to bring her back home. She was soooo excited to get to go off by herself for a visit.

Emma wasn't so sure about being left behind. However, after going to the library and McDonald's with Uncle Matt yesterday and then going to storytime at the bookstore and to lunch with daddy today, I think she's figured out that being by herself with Mom and Dad isn't such a bad deal.
