Of dresses and messes

We've been having some fun with wardrobe around here lately. Savannah was invited to a birthday party where she was encouraged to dress up as a princess. This is new territory for us. Savannah has never shown the slightest interest in princesses. I have been thankful to escape this particular trend. However, not wanting her to feel left out I went and purchased the princess dress. She looks adorable wearing it. She didn't want to take it off. I don't know if she will ask to wear it again anytime soon, but if she does ask I will oblige. It makes her happy. Annabeth loves the dress as well. It is sparkly and voluminous. Thus, very interesting to a baby. We also bought Savannah a really cute rodeo dress. It's nice that Annabeth will be able to wear it someday as well.
Annabeth, on the other hand, is enjoying making huge messes these days. She has taught herself how to open the pantry door. She is so proud of herself each time she does it. Unfortunately this leads to lots of trouble and, of course, messes. She loves blackberries. While these are a very healthy treat, you will note in the photo below that it is rather messy. She was also thrilled with the petting zoo at the rodeo. Those of you who have seen Savannah in action at the petting zoos understand that she is a girl who loves her animals. Evidently it is genetic. Annabeth squealed with delight each time we went in. I should have known she'd like it since it is oh so messy.




Seriously happy baby...
