She Felt Pretty

I'm not a fan of the tights under shorts trend for adults, but whenever I see it on babies I think it's so cute. And recently I realized it would be perfect for Neely, since it would look cute AND she can't remove tights like she does every time she wears socks.

So we tried it yesterday. As soon as I got her dressed I noticed she kept looking down at her outfit, smiling, and touching her shirt. She even did a couple little shimmies. I realized it was the first time she really noticed what she was wearing, and she was pleased. So funny. So then I tried a hairclip in her hair for the first time, and she liked that too. I had her sitting on the bathroom counter, facing the mirror, while I put it in her hair. She started smiling and flapping her arms and kicking her feet excitedly.

She felt pretty.
