all girl

I am pretty girlie but not too flashy, I wear make-up and jewelry, but it's subtle. When I use lip gloss, it's just a quick swish/swirl, then I put it away. My daughter, however, has really picked up on all this stuff. From the time she was about 15 months old, she has been trying to wear my shoes and it just keeps progressing. Last week she finally convinced me to buy her a lip gloss of her own. She had been eying them for sometime and she chose a pink cotton candy Lip Smacker. She was literally giggling with happiness as we walked to the car.

We had more errands that day and she made her way through very slowly as we had to keep stopping for her to remove the cap and reapply about every 10 seconds. It has a very subtle scent yet I can always smell it in our house now.

Her 3 must haves before we leave the house: pink mermaid sea-shell phone, cotton candy lip smacker and the new pink sunglasses that she ended up with after spending about 5 minutes with her dad in a store.

The pink mermaid phone has proved to be a useful tool for venting. I was vacuuming and needed her to sit as she tends to sidle up and I almost bump into her. We had a disagreement about this and when I finished, I found her on the pink mermaid phone telling Aunt Brooke that I was mean. It cracked me up, but I tried not to let her know that I had heard any of this.
