Emma absolutely hates when Natalia gets into her room. She never lets Natalia touch her things and she has a really bad habit of stealing Natalia's toys and putting them in her room where Natalia can't get them. Well, this morning while I was playing on the computer Natalia got Emma's door open and was having a great time enjoying all the "forbidden" goodies in her big sisters room. She was like a kid in a candy store. The most ironic part of this little adventure is that once Natalia found HER magnadoodle that is all she wanted to play with. She couldn't have cared less about the Barbies or Polly Pockets.
It's really neat to see Natalia come out of her sisters shadow when Emma is away at school. Natalia will play for long periods of time quite contently with no screaming or crying. She seems to really enjoy exploring the house and not being bossed around. We have decided to sign Natalia up for Parent and Tots swimming lessons every monday morning. I think it's going to be fun to have an activity just for me and Natalia to do together. She loves swimming.

Morning Vahl Family.
Enjoyed your last 2 posts Shannon. Yes, Natalia is certainly become a little person! Time moves far too quickly. I will have to visit you to experience the airplane book reactions, but your pictures do "say" a great deal! Natalia is likely enjoying "her space" and her undivided time with Mom now that big sister is at school. Enjoy swimming classes ;)

Hey you. I remember when I used to keep Liz out of my room and Megan keeping me out of hers...LOL those were the times. The more its forbidden the more you want in there!
Natalia though has every right to get "her" toys back :)
Very cute pictures
