Adventure in dressing yourself!

Wednesday, February 27, 2008

Payton is learning to dress herself. She has found that it is a lot easier to put things on her bottom half than her top half. As a result every opening is for a leg to go thru.And yes I do paint her toes & they are painted every week. Whenever I want to clip her toe nails I let her hold the polish & then after she gets her toes painted. She actually now waits till they are dry to start moving around. Another sign that my baby has grown up!

Below she's already got her leg thru the neck opening & is trying to stick her foot in the sleeve!
My absolute favorite part about dressing herself is her putting on her own socks.
Yes, 2 socks on 1 foot is a new fashion statement that we all should try! There was one other time where she got 3 socks on one foot. It is easier for her to put socks on her right foot so that foot is usually the one that gets taken care of first or depending on how much patience she has, may be the only foot to have socks on.
And even though the shoes she has on are too big, they are her favorite! They are pink & they sparkle & really what more can a little girl want. Oh yeah, maybe a pony. But her Papaw Don has already taken care of that...
So really what more could she want... other than a house of her very own?!?!?! Any takers?

of COURSE you paint her toe-nails every week! She's such a little princess. And such an adorable princess!
