dress up

Oh I've been waiting for this day. The clothes have been sitting in her closet for months now and she's had no interest in them. So yesterday Addison says to me,

"Mommy, when we get home, can we play dress up? I want to be a princess."

This was the first time EVER that we've played dress up. I showed Addison how to put her hand on her hip and pose. Then I asked her to do it. This is what I got. I was cracking up the whole time.
Then she wanted a picture with her shoes. A little better on the posing this time. She was excited to be all pretty.

Then she tells me, "Mommy, what are you going to be? You can wear some of my stuff." She starts taking off her dress up clothes and makes (MAKES) me put them on. That's right. That's me with the skirt on one leg and the shoes on. Parents do a lot odd things to make their children happy. I have to say it was one of the best night's ever.
