I am even later! My 22 month old daughter isn’t as concerned about clothes, as she is shoes. She changes them about 5 times a day – anything from cowboy boots to sparkly mary janes. As far as Mia’s outfit, Jacinta saw that pic on my screen and said “Aw, cute.”

My six year old only wears dresses and my four year old, only pants. My two baby girls (11 mos) are still dressable (that’s a word, right?), thank goodness! There have been times when we had to put two choices out and others when some items were, uhm, misplaced.
My boys could care less.

Well, you’ve seen how Ellen dresses and I have no say in her attire. There are times that she puts something together that i never would have considered, but she pulls it off.

Choosing how they will dress, even coat on a winter day or shorts in heat, is not a battle I’m going to wage. There are much better battles ahead of us.

Hmm, Mel’s only quirk is gold glitter shoes, even to bed. One of my boys did have a jones for his spiderman halloween costume and wore it daily for like six weeks. That will get you some looks at the grocery.

Delurking….I have 3 girls and the older ones are definitely fashion divas. We went a year straight with my oldest refusing to wear anything but her beloved yellow gingham dress. This too shall pass, but in the meantime she’s just too darn cute to care!

Dang – I can barely get the Princess to change her clothes, let alone dress up. She loathes tights, too. She is all practicality, and would just as soon like to wear the same jeans and turtleneck every day. Saves time for reading, and less folding laundry.

Not that I blame her.

So what you’re saying is I should enjoy it while I can? (The dressing her in anything I want that is.)
