Brooke LOVES being a girl!

A smart girl learns to embrace her girly ways, and learns the appropriate ways to accessorize! Brooke LOVES anything girly. Dresses, Sparkle, Accessories, high heel shoes, painted nails, jewelry, and yes I could just go ON and on. I have always said that I let her dress herself. The only time I fight her on something is if it is horribly mismatched, too busy or not weather appropriate.....which leads to lots of fun for sure.

After a day of swimming, I came in to find this outfit.....swimsuit cover up and of course a scarf to keep her neck warm from her damp hair....

It is nothing new to find her hanging out any time of the day in this swimsuit. I let her pick it off of a Target Clearance rack and she hasn't worn any other suit since. This is her gymnastic practicing, ballet performing, strutting her stuff around the house any ole time swim suit. Look at the pose, the tiara, the leopard shoes.....I rest my case.

Another morning I came in after putting some laundry in the washer to see her watching morning cartoons like this....

I walked inside to freshen up our lemonade glasses and came out to see Daddy looking totally relaxed in the pool......but look closer.

Daddy wasn't the only one chillin'!

And, today.....I DID put my foot down on wearing the leopard print ballet flats with the striped dress AND the flowery cowgirl hat.....

She is definitely embracing all things girly! She is still right under 50 pounds, depending on what she's wearing....ha, and she is already 4 feet tall...talks NON stop, and is definitely in the 'watch me' phase. I am trying not to think about how quickly summer is coming to a close because I am enjoying her SO much.....but shopping for school supplies is already here...ugh! When asked if she was ready for school to start her very diplomatic answer was "I am ready to see my friends!"
