Sisters and a fun filled day!!!

Shiloh slept late after staying up this morning until 5am....and Mommy was the one who stayed up, so around 8am, she was stirring so I brought her into the livingroom and Gaga held her and I went back to bed with Dakota. We slept until around 12pm. Dakota has been tired from the change in bedtimes and routines and not having a nap. Shiloh slept all morning but we did our best to keep her awake most of the day. She crawled in my lap two different times and wanted to sleep, so I got her interested in something else each time to keep her going. We have had lots of help around here with aunts, uncles and cousins, but the Grandma's have been wonderful...Gaga has washed all our clothes and cleaned up this or that. Nana has come over with a meal yesterday and today. She already has a meal planned for tomorrow. Chuck and I have been able to nap which is nice. Dakota has done well but it has been hard on her to share the attention of the grandparents who are now paying attention to Shiloh also. After Shiloh went to sleep tonight I was able to spend time with her alone, tickling and talking about all she did with Nana while we were gone. Today the girls really had a nice day. Shiloh loves riding in the electric car with Dakota driving. She laughs out loud while they come down the hill in the front yard. Shiloh thought it was great to use the sidewalk chalk on the driveway. She had to show me all her scribbles. Then she enjoyed dress up with her sister and cousin putting different outfits on her. She would then prance in the living room to show everyone. Wonder what on earth she must think about all of us and all the toys. She hasn't cried unless sleepy or tired. She and Dakota bumped heads today and I sat in the floor holding two crying girls. Shiloh seems OK with the pets. She pets them through the fence. She is very interested in squeezing the hamster so we have to watch out for him. All was better in a moment. So after a hard day of playing Shiloh went up to Dakota and raised her arms. Dakota picked her up and sat in her little child size recliner in the living room....Shiloh was asleep before Dakota sat down. (Maybe she will sleep tonight for a little while....I know I cannot change her clock in only a few days when she has been 12 hours ahead for 2.5 years.) Dakota was all smiles...she has waited a long time for a sister.
