Tea and Babies

I had a totally different post in my head. But then I saw a few pictures from our tea party for the babies on Friday.

This is a cup and saucer from MY set.

I LOVE it. Six cups and saucers - two of a kind - so they can be all mixy-matchy.

To me, they are very pretty. I could just sit and look at them all day.

I could. Yet, I never will. Because that would just be weird.

The baby I brought was Jack. Jack is actually my favorite of all the dolls. I bought him before I was a grandmother just because I liked the look on his face.

Famke chose to bring Sister Elizabeth. My Jack just sat there the entire time, nodding and agreeing with everything I said. Sister Elizabeth was a bit more of a handful. She required MUCH cooing over. Famke called her 'sweetie' a lot. I thought that was really sweet.

This is Famke's new tea set. Her's has a lot of pieces including an adorable tea pot. It all stores nicely in a cute case. I would be remiss were I not to admit to being a bit jealous over her tea set. I want it.

The only manners we insist upon at our tea parties is that we treat our guests in such a that they know we want them here.

I'm happy to report that our guests knew.
