WILLA ANN IS SO FUNNY!!

Today she came into the living room carrying her sparkly red shoes that her Aunt Augusta gave her for Christmas and set them on the coffee table. She walked over to Trina and grabbed at her and gestured to her shoes on the coffee table. Trina picked them up and told her they were pretty and put them on the table again.
This is not the reaction that our little diva was going for.
She fussed and pulled on Trina and pointed at her red sparkly shoes until Trina got the message. She took off the (apparently unsatisfactory) shoes that Willa Ann was wearing and replaced them with the red sparkly converse shoes. Willa Ann proceeded to prance around the house and stare at her feet.
I am so proud.

p.s. she had to pull out her shoe bin from under her changing table and go through it to get to them. She just turned 1. Brilliance!!! :-D 

baby fashion

OK, anyone that knows me knows that, while I've definitely got my own style, I've never been very into "fashion" per se. I was told that when I had a baby girl that I would go insane over dressing her. I didn't really believe it. However, you might notice that a post back I went wild and bought a hat within moments of seeing it for the first time. This is not like me. I usually pine over an item for a while before I actually go get it, if I ever get it. Now--I've spent hours today trying to find a "Lady Flower long sleeve dress by Zutano  sized for 12-18 months anywhere in the world. They are out of stock EVERYWHERE. And I'm dying for Willa Ann to wear that dress with pink tights and these shoes . DYING. And a chocolate colored hat . I think I'm going to have to settle for the lady flower swing top over a long sleeve top and leggings. But it won't be the same. Does this sound like me??

And while I'm at it, I am having a conniption fit over these shoes . I am building the rest of the outfit in my head--right now I'm thinking chocolate corduroy dress with a cranberry mock turtle neck, but it's just a sketch at this point. 

Yep, I've gone insane and I just don't care. Weeeee!
