One of Daphne's favorite things to do these days is play dress-up. I know, I know, What's new, right? Dress-Up has been one of Daphne's favorite activities for years now. But, the new part, I suppose, is that she is sort-of preoccupied with
marriage these days. On this day, she dressed up like a bride (that's a slip on her head) and waited in the front room for Matt to come downstairs and marry her. Then, they came up with their own "
secret dance moves" for the wedding dance. Tori and I got to sit on the couch and I performed the ceremony and then watched their magnificent dance moves. I totally wish I had recorded that!
The other new dimension in Daphne's imaginative play is that she likes to bring Tori into the mix... usually against Tori's will. But on this occasion, Tori wanted to dress up. When Daphne put on her pink tutu, Tori kept rubbing her dress and saying , "DapDap" (which is her word for Daphne), and then rubbing her own clothes and saying, "Baby." (which is what she calls herself). Daphne decoded the message and ran to get Tori her own frilly pink dress to wear. And Victoria
loved it! She kept it on all morning and
refused to have it removed. I had to pull it off of her as she screamed so that she could eat her lunch!
