Kate has continued to have many riveting, stimulating playdates with her "BFF" Charlotte. These two really just can't get enough of each other! Their newest favorite activity has been mall walking, which we moms can't really argue with. I'm really enjoying the little bit of physical activity, but am starting to realize just how expensive exercise really is. They seem to charge at least a $50 cover charge just for entering the mall. Or, at least that's what it seems like on my credit card bill...
A funny story regarding Kate and Charlotte's playdates that just has to be documented. So, Whitney and I met for lunch a few days ago, and I arrived a few minutes later than she did (as usual!). As soon as I walked in, a lady (who obviously had been admiring Charlotte prior to our arrival) came up to check out Kate. Now, almost anytime we go out in public, Whit and I get a lot of comments about how neat it is that good friends had babies so close in age. So, I was expecting a similar comment. No. She immediately said, "Oh my goodness, they look exactly alike...are they twins?" Uhh...really?? Firstly, as you can see from the picture above, aside from both being babies and being on the "pleasantly plump" side, Charlotte and Kate really look very little alike. Secondly, and more importantly...they very obviously have two different mothers. Hmmm. So, I smiled and nicely said, "No...but they are close in age...just two weeks apart!" Her response? "Oh! Are they sisters?" Seriously? These people are allowed to operate motor vehicles?? Yikes...
