recess

this morning dottie and i got together with basak and lula for a playdate at recess over in potrero hill. it's a really cool indoor play area that is packed with fun toys for the kids. dottie and lula had a ton of fun running around together and did a pretty nice job of taking turns and sharing while they cooked in the kitchen and rode the plastic rollercoaster. after recess, we went for pizza at a cute little spot nearby and the girls held hand on the way to the car afterwards. they are getting cuter and cuter together as they are learning to play together!

on another note, dottie experienced her first carwash today. before we drove in, it seemed as if she was going to lose it. she watched the car ahead of us and started to cry. i must say, the whole thing would be a little bit loud and scary if you didn't quite get what was going on. anyway, we drove in and though she jumped a little here and there, she paid attention the whole time to exactly what was going on and she took the whole thing very well. when asked if she liked it afterwards, she said, "yeah" very eagerly. when asked if she wanted to go through again she quickly said "NO"!
