Co-sleepers

For the past week, Maddie and Faith have shared Maddie's little toddler bed.

I tried putting Faith in her crib tonight from the get-go and she cried and cried and cried. I went in to ask her if she wanted to sleep with Maddie, and in between tears she told me "Essss!" and pointed to Maddie's room. She was so happy to lay next to her big sis, and Maddie was beside herself to have her little 'Dis' with her. Maddie is always the first to go to sleep, and passes out even though Faith usually carries on talking forever. I always pass Faith back to her crib if she's still talking and goofing off after 30 minutes or so, but she just loves being with her Maddie and usually they do end up falling asleep together. They'll love sharing a room within the near future, once Faith is in a bed though. Faith actually does very well in a bed, but I am not ready to move her out of her crib. Not quite yet.

Maddie's been dying laughing these days because when you ask Faith what her name is lately, she'll answer "Dis." So, Maddie goes around calling for "Dis" and laughing hysterically. Then sometimes if Maddie asks Faith what Maddie's name is, Faith will say "Momma" and laugh. Maddie finds this quite funny.

They are inseparable, my two girls. Whenever they are at the playground now (and at random times throughout the days) Maddie will say "Momma, me and Beebster are in love" and then start singing the classic "Friends Forever" song from the glory days of 'Saved by the Bell' and the Zack Attack. They are the best of friends for sure!
