Sometimes we get something we just love. It becomes our favorite thing! In the case of a child, they may want to wear this new found favorite item ALL THE TIME!
Mama Cindy got Lucy a chef hat (among other kitchen necessities) for her birthday back in September. The moment she got it she wanted the hat on. For weeks Lu would wear her hat around the house. It would be a fight to get her to take it off for naps and leaving the house.
'Boops' are a different story. (And yes in front of Lucy we ALWAYS say 'boops' because we don't want her to stop with the cute baby words). They haven't fizzled out and it has been months. I was noticing today that she won't be able to wear them for all that much longer as they are now her size. Anyone have any advice for a child who grows out of something they love? 
The other day Lucy had on cute navy shoes to go with her outfit. Then she saw me put on my brown boots to leave and she freaked out that she couldn't wear her 'boops' too. We had to change her clothes and shoes because I am such a pushover of a mother! To church I usually stand my ground though, no 'boops' unless you are wearing a dress that they actually work with.
Side note: below is Lucy in timeout. Most kids hate time out. Why did I have to have the child that actually loves it and does things that will let her visit that corner? One time her cousin was over spending a few days with us and I sent him to timeout. Lucy cried and cried because I would not let her go to a corner for time out too. What is wrong with my child? Counting doesn't work either because she gets excited and starts to count with us. Sigh...
She asked for the leash I swear! And the no clothing in timeout and below? She didn't want to put her dress back on and it was warm so I said heck with it. Plus, isn't it kind of cute?

Lucy in no clothes, boots, and a leash is classic. Best outfit ever.
that is so funny. She is stinking cute and so big!! No way you have a 2-year-old! those boops are cute, who wouldn't want to wear them all the time?
As for growing out of boots, maybe take her to the store for a special trip and she can pick out new big girl boots? might work....f
Story's favorite backyardigan is Tyrone. She makes out with the stuffed animal all the time. :)
Just swinging around blogger and found this post... She is a doll! I love the hat and how her little ears pop out! Just too cute!
why do you think that it's ok to never post anything on your blog. I just want to say that it's not ok. Not ok at all. I love you.
