My day with the "chickens"

Ladies, let's be real, we love our significant others and our family but there is something about being with your friends that is good for the soul. I enjoy being with my husband, I'm sure I talk his ear off and he does a great job of listening...but when you're with your friends, you can talk about everything and anything and they always support you (or at least act like they do) and you can reminisce about the good ole' days---

Last Friday, I had the pleasure of spending the day with one of my best friends, and for confidentiality purposes, I won't give names. Whenever she blogs she calls her family the "bears" and she has two bears...baby bear is 5 and tiny bear is 2...(this reminds me of the books the Berenstain Bears)..hahaha.

Anyways, upon arrival baby bear does what most boy baby bears do...hide and crawl and try to sneak attack me, total boy! After teaching, I am convinced that all little boys have the same amount of energy and like to do many silly things to bother their little sisters. Tiny bear patiently sits at the table and waits for her food, at one point, she wanted me to hold her..... and who doesn't love to snuggle with a 2 year old....total sweetness!

The bears picked at their food and then rushed to the play place (we were at Chic Fil A) the perfect place for the kids to play and the adults to play catch up! I enjoyed talking to my friend and spending a few hours of girl talk; it makes you miss the moments you used to have pre-marriage and pre-babies when you could just drop your life and go see your friends. It doesn't work like that anymore, we all have our own families to keep up with. We giggled and shared recent stories...sooo soothing for the soul. Best friends are the greatest!

Some of the funniest parts of our visit were with her bears. At one point baby bear enjoyed doing brotherly things to tiny bear like...spitting water out of his straw at her, or trying to sneak attack her chicken nuggets. Tiny bear can totally handle these situations...you go girl! As a child, my younger brother liked to do brotherly things to me too! One time, he took a wind up car and put it in my hair...winding up my hair in the wheels...that was one interesting hair cut! Or the countless times he would put gum in my hair while I was peacefully watching a movie, he laughed about it! Little boys.....

So tiny bear is being potty trained, and at one point, she literally darts out of the play place and guns it for the bathroom....I don't think that Usain Bolt could of out ran that little girl..proud mommy moment for my friend but I was hysterically laughing...GO TINY BEAR!

At the end of it all, my friend thanked me for spending time with her silly bears....I love these little chickens and they keep everything entertaining!

Best friends are the best :)
