The Imaginary Camera

So I was telling Logan about something the girls did yesterday and he said I had to blog this because it was funny.
Well here it goes...

I was sitting on the couch reading a book and the girls are playing "Make Believe"
In this scenario Addison is Santa Clause and Regan is the child who wants something. (Sometimes they play teacher and student, or mommy and daughter, or grandma and mommy you name it)

So Addison has her Camp Rock Doll in hand and Regan says I want to sit on your lap.
Addison says "NO!"
Then fixes her dolls boots and then tells Regan she can sit on her lap.
Addison is using their timeout chair as "Santa's Chair"

So I'm sitting watching them. Regan is kind of all over the place and just kind of whatever goes kind of mood. Addison is not really paying too much attention to Regan but is her usual feisty self.

Then Regan says
R: "Smile, I'm gonna take a picture"
**this is her imaginary camera, mind you**

A: NNNNNNNNOOOOO thats my camera
**throwing a pout on her face and yelling and jumping up to take back her "camera"
**remember its IMAGINARY**

So Addison proceeds to "grab it" somehow- and says
A: There now I have it
and closes her fist around her camera

Regan gets mad and says no, give it back, give it back to me
I'm sitting on the couch thinking there is no way my kids are fighting over this, but I don't interceed because I think its hilarious

So Regan then works on unfolding Addison's fingers to get the camera back
There is lots of yelling and at each other and Addison hiding her face in the wall, while Regan attempts to extract the hidden camera.

Regan GETS IT BACK and then tells Addison to sit down so she can take a picture of her. Addison Sits down. and says Cheese and Regan *clicks* her "IMAGINARY CAMERA"

Seriously, I don't know where they come up with this stuff...my kids are freaking hilarious, even when they are being bratty to each other!
