Goin' Retro

When we were at Target last week, Caroline picked out a new dress and Camille picked out an outfit -- okay, I picked out the outfit, but she gave it her nod of approval when I asked if she liked it.  After we got home, I realized that we had unwittingly bought a dress for my oldest that could have come straight out of the 60's and a romper for my youngest that could have come straight out of the 80's.  Please note, I did not leave Charlotte out; she got the same outfit as Camille, but by the time we got home, she decided she didn't like it anymore.  I can't blame her, I bought a dress that same trip and that dress is in the bag with Charlotte's romper waiting for the return to Target trip.  

the princess

While Caroline loves to dress up and loves nothing more than an afternoon of pretending to be a princess, when Charlotte puts on a dress-up gown, in her three year old mind, she is a princess.  So it came as no surprise last week when Charlotte wanted to wear her "wedding gown" and ruby slippers to a little informal performance at her school.  And yes, she was the only one not in her regular school clothes.  I love that about her.
