Fashion Sense

It's been decided. Lily will be locked in her bedroom until she reaches the age of 30! Why, you ask?? It's simple. Really. Blame it on Lily's fashion sense.

This weekend Lily and I went shopping to buy her a few things to make it through the rest of summer. Lily is growing like a weed and the clothes I bought her at the beginning of summer barely fit her now.

Anyway, I was looking at some shorts for Lily and she chimes in, "No Mommy, not those. I like short shorts." I assured Lily that they were in fact shorts. Lily replied, "I know, but I don't want my shorts to go to there. I want them to go to there." Let's just say the hand gestures Lily used to indicate the desired length of her shorts would have made Daisy Duke blush!

We also looked for a few new shirts while we were out. Lily told me, "Mommy, I want shirts that show my underarms." Um...underarms?!? Okey dokey. Hey, at least she didn't say her belly button!

Today while we were out running errands I stopped in a shoe store looking for a new pair of plain black sandals. I must confess I'm very much a 'sensible shoe' kinda girl. Lily...not so much. Every snakeskin, leopard spotted, gold bangled, 5 inch heel pair of hoochie shoes Lily spotted actually caused her to squeal with delight...and me to cringe!



Did I say Lily would be locked in her room until she's 30? I meant 35!

PS - this is my 500th post! When I started the blog way back when I never imagined I would still be updating it almost 3 years later.
