Girly Girl?


Here is Ada in her pretty, floral, feminine bubble dress that she wore to daycare on Tuesday! She was picture perfect. She even sat a little prissier than usual in her carseat- with her hands clasped politely in her lap and her lips pursed just a little. She knew she looked special! (This day was the first day since Ada began crawling that we have ventured into dress/skirt territory. Now that she's walking we're introducing them back into her wardrobe options!)

When I picked her up from daycare that day, however, I learned that her behavior didn't quite match her girly outfit. The daycare bully (not the infant room bully- the DAYCARE bully) was exiled into the infants room because she wouldn't let any of the 2 year olds in her room sleep at naptime. (Sound like anyone we know? At least our bug does it out of the goodness of her heart- surely the other babies would rather stay up and play with her!) So The Bully was up to no good, and bullying babies: pulling hair, trying to bite, stealing toys, food, and bottles, pushing down, walking over, anything else toturous you can imagine doing to a 12 month old. Ada, apparently had enough- because she started to dish it right back out to The Bully; and had her running scared from her by the end of the day! All the while dressed so pretty in her bubble skirt.... I can't help but laugh when I picture all of that going down!
