Ben’s Dress

Want to tick off a 2.5 year old girl? Make a normally sweet and adorable kid into an absolute monster for a good 20 minutes?
(I hope not, that’d kinda make you a sick individual.)

Put her in an adorable blue, plaid dress bought lovingly from Grandma from Janie and Jack.

She INSISTED that because this dress is a.) plaid, and b.) blue, that it was “Benny’s dress.”
I don’t know where she got that idea, Ben doesn’t wear dresses that often…

Once we got into the car and on our way to church, she was back to her normal self. Let me put pigtail braids in her hair, was really well behaved while there, and had fun playing with the kids during coffee and donuts time afterwards. Once we got home, she wanted to get out of that thing! These pictures are from her pouting and trying to squiggle her way out of a picture.

But you can only protest so much, eventually I got two pictures (and a great story) to send to Grandma. 🙂

Thank you Grandma!!!!
We I love the dress and we’re I’m so glad she finally fits in it!
