Yesterday I went shopping with my sister Jenn who is in town visiting. I had fun seeing her and her daughters and I witnessed for myself just how girly those three girls of hers are. My niece Paige is probably going to be clothing designer when she grows up, I have never seen a girl so crazy about putting outfits together and wanting you to model them for her. She followed me around the store telling me what would look good on me "Amy this will look good on you. I want you to try this on." She would pick things up to give to me that were not my size so I told her to find ones with the letter M on it. After that it was so funny because she came up to me with all these shirts with the letter M on them. Then she found a dress for me. A yellow summer dress that she said was prettier than the one that I had in my hands (the same dress but white) she said for the 100th time. "I want you to try this on, I like this one better." So we went to the dressing room, and she came with so she could give me her opinion. As I am going into the dressing room she also brings me a pair of shoes that she thinks will just go great with the yellow dress. So I try on the white dress first and came out to show Paige, she looks at me and says I want you to try on the yellow dress. So I try on the yellow dress and she reminds me to put the shoes on with the dress she must see the whole outfit together, it is her masterpiece apparently. I come out and show her and she keeps complimenting me on how pretty it is. And of course now the change from "I want you to try this on" goes to "I want you to buy this" I get back into my clothes and come out with all the items I tried on and laid them on the stroller. She immediately takes the white dress and gives it to the employee working in the dressing room and says, "we don't want this" and keeps walking. I was hysterical at this point. For those of you who don't know, Paige is 4 years old. Someone goes on too many shopping trips with her mom. As we were leaving she was sure to walk me to the cashier telling me to buy the dress and shoes. The pressure a 4 year old can put on you is quite heavy. She also helped me find some things for Preston, including some sunglasses. I could keep her as my little shopping buddy. It was great.

I didn't even see this post before. Sounds like Paige should audition for What Not to Wear - maybe they'll make a version for kids. And that picture of her with Preston is really cute.
