Talia's First Shiner and My Little Fairy Princess



Talia was playing in a rubbermaid container named the "nest" and as she stood up, she whacked herself in the eye on the coffee table. I didn't even realize it was that bad (I mean she cried and everything but she is emotional anyways) until after bath time that night. She calls it her makeup and is quite pleased about the magical purple and pink colors. It doesn't really look that bad in the pictures but if you look at the last photo up top and note that both her eyes should be opened like her left eye you get a better idea.
My Tristan has been having a splendid time too. He brought me this fancy outfit and put it in my hand. I said thank you and he growled at me indicating that he wanted it on. He did this little feet dance as a I put it on and wandered about the backyard and the house for an hour enjoying his time as a fairy princess. He did this super sweet dance on the counter (the start of it is the middle picture with his back to the camera) and probably wouldn't have taken it off but I didn't want to get his dinner on it- Talia would not have been pleased.

Its about time.

My neice just got 9 stiches on her eyelid from the same thing, and the guy in the ER next to her (between the partisian) died from a heart attack...nice, eh?

And we dress our son up in tutu's and princesses dresses too...love it!

So you beat your daughter and encourage cross-dressing in your son. Love it!

That cracks me up. Those pictures remind me of Peter when we would dress him up and do his hair like a girl. Kids are funny. Talia is so cute. I so wish she was here so my boys could play with her - they'd have a blast.
