"There is Plenty of Lola to Go around"

Okay, Kerri - is Lola's sweetest babysitter. A couple weeks ago, she sent this story, which is so funny, and so cute, that I wanted to post it, along with some pictures of the three characters in the story. So I also asked Kerri take some pics, and email them so that we can remember these cutie patuties!! Thanks Kerri!!

The Story:

"Well, it was only just before 9:00 and Samuel had already cried over Lola. Both Sam and Sophie wanted to sing Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star to Lola at the same time... (Sam doesn't like that, he wants to be the only one singing). Sophie made it to the bathroom to wash her hands before Sam, so that she could touch Lola's feet while she sings to her. Sam was soooo sad! He went behind the chair and cried, I gave him a hug and told him 'there is plenty of Lola to go around' everyone can have a turn to sing to her, and touch her feet. Sam said 'Kerri, I wisheded I had a baby sister so that I could be a big brother' (yes... he said wisheded) it was so cute.
They are calling her 'Princess Jasmine Lola baby' today because Zack said she had on an Egyptian outfit. To make Sam happy I told him he could be Aladdin if Lola was Jasmine, Sophie quickly got upset with me for leaving her out and said... 'huh! Grandma! Then who am I!?' (I can't win!) Sam suggested we put Lola on the blue rug 'so that it could be her magic carpet'. Don't worry, yes I did remind the kids that Lola is not a toy she is a baby.
Thank heaven Ashlii came shortly after this to take both Sam and Sophie to pre-school. Wow what a morning! Funny kids!"

in the picture above... if you look at the body language... Sam is eyeballing Sophie to make sure that she's not touching Lola - LOL he can't even share her for the picture. Looks like little Lola has her first little boyfriend...OMG!

Here's the cutest pic, they are all three behaving in this one. (below) I'm so happy that Lola is so loved by all the kids!!

Hi guys! It's me, Annie from 10 years ago! Hope you don't mind if I say hello! Looks like you are getting along well with a little one! Lola is so tiny and beautiful. It is neat to see how she has changed already. Congratulations! You three are a beautiful family.

That is an awesome story. Little Lola is a true celebrity at day care. Speaking of, I am looking for a place that will take Reese a few days a week. Will you let me know if your day care has an opening? You're the best!
