Holy Cow what a Fashion Statement

Every day we go through the same routine. Callie wakes up and immediately finds something in her cupboard to wear. Most days it is a Spider Man t-shirt that she just won't part with even though it is getting way to small and her cute little belly peeks out from under it. Then, to complete the ensemble, she will put on pink winter snow boots. Did I mention that she fails to put pants on??? Quite attractive I must say! The best part though is that I allow her to go outdoors and play that way....unless of course it is way too cold to be outside without pants! My neighbors must think I am insane. They wouldn't be wrong!
Today it was rather chilly when she woke up so she left her pajamas on and asked if she could wear a frilly yellow dress over them. She has such a sense of fashion....NOT!!! I couldn't resist snapping the picture, and I just had to share. Unfortunately, you can't see the Spiderman Sandals in this picture. I really think they complete the outfit. Also, she is holding her favorite cow. His name is Holy....get it....Holy Cow?!?!!? Who couldn't love a rainbow colored cow named Holy?



Once we finally convinced her to change her clothes for school (honestly, did you think I would actually allow her to go to school with a red and white thermal shirt covered in hearts, blue paint-stained pants topped with a yellow frilly dress, and spider man sandals?? I believe in giving her a sense of self, but that was taking it just a bit too far)! So, we settled on jeans and a long sleeved shirt, but she insisted on wearing her rain coat buttoned all the way to her neck. Why does this child insist on buttoning and zipping to the point of nearly choking? I can only hope that when she is a teenager she will want to wear her clothes the same way.
When we arrived at school she was sitting so sweetly in her car seat with the hood of her raincoat pulled up, and the buttons still snugly wrapped around her neck. However, she had added a new element to her outfit; she was wearing her Care Bear sunglasses and told me that she wasn't sure if it would be rainy or sunny, so she was going to wear both. She looked like she was incognito. Once again, all the teachers could do is laugh and shake their heads. Looks like our neighbors won't be the only ones that think this Mommy is insane! Here she is minus the shades.
