Dress up

This is the kind of post that involves both pictures and stories that my children might be mad at me later for sharing. But they are too good not to share. Both of them like to dress up. Which is strange to me because neither of them are too happy when it comes to getting dressed for the day or for bed. Which is why today Addie wore the following to the store today: green hoodie, pink polka dot pajama pants, one pink boot and one brown boot. Sorry I didn't get a picture of it, but she probably ingrained it into several bystanders' memories when she pinched her finger in the straps of the cart and let a very loud, prolonged scream.
Anyway, this first picture shows Andres in his favorite jacket. I'm pretty sure it's because it's so cozy and comfy (it's fleece). I won't say much more to embarrass the future 16 year-old Andres, but it was not my idea to put it on him, nor was it Addie's.


He didn't want to take it off and he actually fell asleep in it. The next day we all got sick, so he probably wanted something warmer on. And how could you blame him? He sure does look cozy!

This was the outfit that Addie completed that day while Andres was asleep. In case you were wondering: Yes, pink is very in right now.
I gave Addie a girl scout cookie. She decided she didn't want it. Being the nice sister that she is, she gave the whole chocolate-covered cookie to her brother. So nice of her. He sure enjoyed it. So did his clothes and the wall behind him. What a cheese!

Addie might hate me later, but really this is one of the less incriminating pictures of this outfit. She put on plaid shorts backwards with a cardigan that is supposed to fit like that because you're supposed to wear something under it (which she did not want to do) and in this picture Jason is helping her put on the skirt that finishes off many of her outfits these days.

What a delightful post! You do have a couple of very creative, uninhibited children!I think the polka-dot jacket is charming on Andres. I hoped someone would get use of it. They are a couple of 'hams'!

Love it! They are darling children! It reminds me of things Eden and Eli did when they were that age. And it makes me smile and think of the goofy things they are still doing--especially my three year old.

Your kids are so adorable! I love all the outfits that Addie put together. And I can't blame Andres for wanting to wear the fleece jacket, it looks so soft and comfy.
