The Joys of Dressing Themselves!!!

I can't tell you how hard it is for me to let my children (mostly Claire), be independent and pick out her clothes. I fell like I have good taste, but she doesn't. She is so picky now that I have to take her to the store, and make sure that she likes something before I buy it. I found the cutest outfit the other day for our family pictures, but she didn't like it. It's not worth buying it because she will only wear it the one time I make her, and then it is done. Oh well, I just have to give up, and let her dress herself - that is HARD!!! Last weekend we found her a new hat and gloves, and boots, and I can't get the things off of her. She has worn them everywhere!! For FHE we went to visit a new member of our ward, and she refused to take them off. Oh well, at least she was warm.

Claire is ready for snow!! Almost - does anyone know where I can find some 4T or 5T snow pants - I can't find them anywere. I'm sure once I get them, she will wear those all the time too!
Saturday morning - we bought them on Friday!
This is not Owen's jacket, but his good friend McKinleys. She came over to play and when her mom held her coat up for McKinley to put on, Owen ran right over, and got ready to "go." I'm sure this picture will provide good blackmail in the future.

This is hilarious. I can just see biting your tongue when she comes out dressed mismatch! I would die, too. Luckily boys just don't care. At least mine don't.

Target has snow bibs...overalls, whatever you call them. I also just got Kenzi and Kamri matching snow bibs and coats from Kohl's online...they were on sale, and cheap!

The picture of Owen is adorable! Oh, my gosh...he'll love looking at that when he's older! Such cute kids!
