I walked in the den yesterday and saw the girls just like this. I asked, "what are y'all doing?"

The answer was hilarious.

Do any of you want to take a stab at it?

Leave a comment with what it is that you think they are doing.

The closest answer or the funniest wins...

I'll send you 6 heavy-duty diner mugs from the restaurant supply store.

mugs

This is a quick one... ends tomorrow at noon. So hurry!

My first impression is that they are having a yard sale.

Upon staring at the picture further, I am also thinking that if the above is wrong, that they are dipping their toes in the pool (aka rug).

Jennifer said...

Morgan- "Good morning and thank you for tuning in the the Morgan and Paige show!"

Paige- "On todays show, I will start off by showing you how to properly change a diaper. I will be demonstrating this using my stuffed bear and making use to the changing table we have over to the right in our studio!"

Morgan- "Sounds exciting Paige! Looking forward to that segment! We will be right back after a message from our sponsors! (aka- mom and dad)"

Adriane said...

I'm gonna go with "Judges for an American Idol"-type show starring their stuffed Teddy Bear!? They are gorgeous, and I LOVE the bobs!!:) Miss you, Darby!

Caroline said...

My first guess was also a yard sale but I have learned that things with kids are never what they seem!

AnNicole@Our Suburban Cottage said...

They are so darn cute! Are they pretending to drive a car?

Becky said...

i think they are momma and mommasissy pulling up a chair to have a chat and catch up on their "stories". of course, they may also be watching paint dry...hard to tell.

Molly said...

Acting like mommy and daddy (one with her legs crossed and the other with her hands on the arms of the chair legs uncrossed).

Tell me more about restaurant supply stores (you can email me if you don't want to post, or you can look at this and tell yourself you don't have time to let a stranger know about a store!). I drive by a place that has a sign saying they are the same thing and I always wonder if I can go in. I would love to buy basic stem wineglasses like they have in restaurants.

Abby Maddox said...

Having a yard sale...Oh dear, I see that first commenter said that. That was my first impression too though!

Shelli Allen Photography said...

they are driving to the beach..

Unknown said...

are they getting ready for another baby ;-)

pretending to be mommy in the passenger seat while daddy is driving the car!!

Cherish Stockdale said...

etiquette class? is one of your girls trying to teach the other how to sit like a lady?

Becky said...

It looks to me like they are sitting in a waiting room of some sort.

Susan said...

Cute! My first guess was the beauty parlor but my top answer is that they are getting pedicures! Ah, the life!

Molly Turner said...

They could be playing "Lifeguards"
The rug is the pool and all those teddy bears are the lives they have saved!
Paige seems like a very proud lifeguard!

I love your blog! Thanks!!

Elizabeth Mills said...

They are cute! Playing mommy and daddy.

Teale said...

Well Morgan looks like she is giving her best impression of Erika in labor, breathing through contractions and gripping the arms of the chair. Paige is you with John Martin, sitting nice and pretty and thankful you aren't the one pushing out a child at that moment. :)

Love Being A Nonny said...

Big one potty training the little one.

Hope Atchison said...

Are they "nursing" the teddybear?? My children always imitated me when I was nursing. Ok, now people probably think I'm a freak but "more is caught than taught" right? I'm really quite normal. :) I think I ended up on this blog from Lucy and Lauren and Lindsey Salter. Here are all the things I've bought/tried after reading your blog...those fish swimsuits from Walmart (last year), the red and white stripe dresses from Walmart this year :), house smell good stuff, nachos with the things from my pantry, chocolate dipped pretzels, sunscreen, Cottage Living...so Thank you! for all the great ideas.

KM said...

This is hilarious. I can't wait to find out...looks like Raiger is in charge though whatever it is.

Rebecca said...

a garage sale!!! oh man, just saw the first answer...oh well.

ski said...

So Morgan, you distract mommy while I go fine the nail polish and we can paint our toe nails...then if we are fast enough we can get JM's too!


I don't remember exactly HOW I ran across your blog, but it has become one of my favorites! I have tried almost all of the things from your kitchen and they have ALL been enjoyed! Thanks for sharing!

Michele said...

Morgan, as Erika, in the foot soaker and Paige,as Darby, getting painted while multi-tasking (as any other mommy does) with John Martin in her arms!! Adorable!

Finley's Mom said...

They obviously got their hands on our old video camera and have watched the various hours of talk shows that we used to create and record and are recreating them! Too cute! Just wait until they get older and start adding makeup and wardrobe changes to the mix- tee hee!

Amanda Thrasher said...

1. Anxiously awaiting puberty.
2. Playing judges for Miss America or Miss USA pageant.
3. playing "wait in line" at DMV to get new driver's license. (feel certain you have to do this at least once with kids in tow.
4. waiting to have our name called to audition for American Idol.

I need new mugs. been meaning to find restaurant supply in Atlanta

L said...

Are they sitting by the pool?

Kelly Kennedy said...

I think they are playing "Darby and Justin: Q & A Round 3". I gotta be right cause Mama needs some mugs!!:) Love, love your blog. I made the white queso for Cinco de Maya and now Jillian Michaels is my best friend.

katydid said...

I have sisters, so here's my guess... the little one on the left (Paige?) has just informed Morgan (?) that while her dress is just darling, she missed a spot while shaving her legs!

The Bordens said...

Waiting to be seen at the docs. office. They are 2 cute

katydid said...

I have two sisters, so here's my guess, your daughter on the left (Paige?) has just informed Morgan (?) that her dress is simply darling, but she missed a spot while shaving her legs!

After all, if your sisters can't be honest with you, who can?!

Rachel said...

My first thought: Darby & Erika.

Final conclusion: POTTY TRAINING 101
Paige is the teacher. Morgan is demonstrating. JM is the student.

Sarah said...

I think they're pretending to be sitting in church, with all the toys as their friends!

Stephanie said...

It looks like Morgan is going to the doctor, Dr. Raiger. Maybe she needs therapy? ;)

The McDonalds said...

I think they are sitting like you & Justin sit! One is sitting like Mommy & the other like Daddy sits...

Unknown said...

Hoda and Kathy Lee?
I have a sister and think makes me crack up thinking about my childhood!
Thanks for the laugh!!!

Becky said...

oooorrrrr....it's coffee talk with linda richman. morgan is linda and she is saying "raiger...your legs ah like buttah"

Kailee said...

I have 2 thoughts
1. Morgan looks like an old person using a walker...kinda.
2. Paige is teaching Morgan how to go poo poo on the potty. haha

Katy said...

Dr Phil? Oprah?

They are darling

Unknown said...

They are the judges of some sort of pageant???

emily said...

potty training was my gut reaction... morgan is sure holding on to that "potty" in deep concentration, and paige is waiting so patiently for results. :)

Laura said...

Pretending to be mommy and daddy?

Amanda said...

"We're packed and waiting for the train."

andi said...

At the Preschool Program. I bet M. is Mrs. O and Raiger is the teacher. I am so hoping for those mugs! :) I am sure their Program (both at home and school) was a hit!!!

Lara said...

I was going to say playing Regis and Kelly but it looks like someone had a similar idea already. Playing school?
Can't wait to hear what the girls were up to!

Adrienne said...

Playing Time -out? Musical chairs? or Princess and the Pea? Whatever they are up to, they are awfully cute!

Jaren said...

We're having Sunday school, of course! These children (stuffed animals) are our choir. You can join our congregation too. If you can fit in one of our chairs. :)

Janna Widdifield said...

Waiting patiently in a waiting room area--maybe the doctor's office? That little bear looks mighty sick laying on his mama's lap.

Unknown said...

They're having a talk show like Oprah! Oh my goodness, whatever they are doing, they sure are cute while doing it!

Teresa @ Grammy Girlfriend said...

I thought talk show too....too cute

Raylan said...

Maybe they are pretending like they are at the beach, and they are working on their tan! They are too cute for words :)

Love your blog!

pve design said...

You have yourself of couple of producers..."Now, let's take it from the top, ready, set, action"

(preparing for greatness in hollywood or grey gardens)
love the pile of props.

"Mommy, can't tell...we're getting peddies for the summer!"

McMemo said...

waiting for an airplane??

Anonymous said...

So cute! It looks like they are waiting take-off on an airplane with their luggage piled up high next to them!

Cari K. said...

I think there is going to be a fashion show...

Rachel said...

They look like they are waiting at the doctor's office? Whatever they are waiting for, they look practiced at it!

Cari K. said...

I think there is going to be a fashion show

Hillary @ The Other Mama said...

I was going to say having a yard sale, but that seems easy. I think they are pilots on a plane because that's what my boys are doing when they line up chairs (behind each other). I'm sure that's it. Uh huh. Yep.

Lacey said...

I think they are pretending to be talk show hosts on The View!

*I've never commented before and I love your blog Darby!

Kellie said...

flying in an airplane

Ellis said...

Hmm...I'll say that they're waiting in the waiting room at the Dr. or Dentist. :)

Jenny Lynn said...

I'm guessing that they are playing "Doctor" and they're waiting in the doctor's office!

Carly Winborne said...

Paige is clearly teaching Morgan how to "sit like a lady."

But the garage sale comments are cracking me up!

karambert said...

I bet they are playing Mommy and Daddy!

Wendy said...

Playing house?

Elizabeth said...

Well duh! They're Paula and Simon on American Idol!

Sarah said...

Besides being cute? I think they are getting pedicures...or are they on some sort of talk show?

Becky said...

ooooh i got it...and only count one of mine...cause i was just putting these for a laugh...they are DOG and BETH...going to collect another bounty!! or josh and anna on the duggars where they can look, but not touch!!

Shireen said...

Imaginary sunbathing on an imaginary beach! :)

looking SO forward to the real answer!

The girls look so good!!! I love their hair cuts!

Mandi said...

Flying on an airplane...

Totty said...

Pretending to get pedicure's?

barrynchristie @yahoo.com said...

pretending to have their hair done! :-)

aedozier said...

I don't even have a creative guess for you. They are abosolutely adorable!

Mandy said...

something to do with the potty is my first impression and then I saw the car seat? Is JM in there? I say potty!

Mrs. Davis said...

SOOO cute!! These ladies must be getting a pedicure!!!

Mrs. Davis said...

no I take that back...they are at a doctor's office!!!! WAITING!!!!!!!! HA!!! Who cares...they are so darn cute!

blair said...

they are certainly judges for the Miss America pagent...love Paige's crossed legs, so elegant.

Jennifer said...

they look like they're on the Today Show, or something. can't wait to find out!

Rachel said...

.lovin it. I'm definitely thinking "waiting to go to the hospital for delivery" OR mimicking the shower you had w/ the chair placement.

Tara said...

I think that they are pretending to be oprah and guest :)

Tara said...

Ha, I just realized that another Tara commented before me, with a similar answer! I was going to guess that they were pretending to be Regis and Kelly! :)

Julie said...

They are precious. Looks like they might be playing school. Paige looks like the principal or teacher and Morgan looks like she might be in trouble. Maybe the pile of friends are already in time out. :) Too cute, whatever they have dreamed up!

erinshelton said...

They are riding on a bus... far far away from house renovations and makeovers! The things beside them are their bags packed!

The Stained Glass Window said...

Darby asks, "What are you ladies doing?"

Paige, with her legs crossed, looks at Morgan then replies, “Sister said if we were quiet the magic carpet wouldn’t know we were here and it would start flying…and then we could ride on it….”

Lydia said...

They are definitely impersonating Mommy & MommaSissy....maybe anticipating the arrival of MommaSissy's baby??!

LindsB said...

They are too cute for words! I guess that they are hosting a talk show, but a bunch of people beat me to it.

Cant wait to find out though

Remodelaholic said...

Morgan just got finished answering her first Miss America question, "How do you feel blogging has influenced the world?"

Paige was a little worried at how good her answer had been, and was checking out the competition. Her own question "How do you properly care for and love a Teddy bear?" Seemed a little less flashy.

Meredith said...

I didn't have time to read through the comments, so my apologies if I've duplicated someone else's guess.

My first guess was church, but I think I have a better one. Maybe they are acting out a baby shower since you had one at your house recently.

I love your blog! Thank you for sharing with us!

owens19@cox.net said...

I was thinking that since you have (or still have) family in town...maybe they have packed their things to go home with them?

KMR said...

I think they are playing Mommies having coffee.

Ashley said...

Hmm,
Waiting to get a pedicure??
Really! They are too cute!:)

Anonymous said...

definitely posing as "Britian's Got Talent" judges

Anonymous said...

looks like paige is teaching morgan about potty training:)amy sharp

Kat said...

Oh, my guesses are already taken too...

Here they are anyway, ;)

Possible ideas...
Yard sale (Where are the wicker chairs?)
Hanging out by the pool (indoors)
Playing Cottilion... "This is how a lady sits, legs together or legs crossed..."

I positively adore those mugs. They look exactly like the mugs we used at Easter brunch. I asked for the name of the place they came from, then checked it out online but I couldn't find it. Those are seriously the perfect mugs!!!

Haley said...

"If you cross your legs like this you can hold off on going to the bathroom for another minute."

"Oops."

Amanda Burkett said...

I haven't a clue what they're up to, but upon seeing the little darlings, I'm convinced that you need a copy of "White Gloves and Party Manners", a darling etiquette book my mother (tried to) raise me on! Make you deal, send me some mugs, I'll send you the book!! A blogger friend and follower . . . Amanda

Jacci said...

Hmmm.... I have no idea what you like to watch on television, but your little gal there on the left is certainly putting on a "grown-up" character with her sweet little leg crossed like that. I'll say they are pretending to be the ladies on The View :)

Sarah's Fab Day said...

I know I didn't get in on time but my first thought is they are playing Oprah.

Live a Colorful Life said...

I'm too late, but I think they are judges for Project Runway.

Sarah said...

sitting in church?

:o) mg said...

LOL! After reading someone said
"they are Regis and Kelly" I had to go back and look at the photo again. BAH ha ha ha ha ha
So true.
Oh, I hope that's what it is.

mb said...

They are King and Queen...
They are having a pageant for Miss America...
Oh my goodness, you don't let them watch American Idol do you?? Surely not... they are judging American Idol?
They are being loving sisters, doing what sisters do best, hanging out with each other.
