An update to dressing ourselves

The boys have gotten a bunch more interested in dressing themselves (which they are capable of doing) and actually picking out their own clothes.
Andy wore two shirts to church today....a red Paris shirt under the tie-dye shirt with overalls (not the striped ones). Ummm..yeah

Doug has insisted on a train shirt every day this week and if there were none sorted out of the laundry basket yet (clean but buried...I don't have time to dig) he would settle for a truck/car shirt. He also seems to have a thing for plaid shorts and he has asked to wear pajama pants several times.

Also, we very prematurely purchased some cute little berets for Josie's hair (mommy was hopeful) and the boys have wanted to wear them since Jo doesn't have enough hair yet. Of course I just gave them haircuts so their hair is too short and they have had to settle for wearing them on their shirts. Daddy didn't want to take them out of the house with their colorful flower berets on their sleeves, but the boys settled for letting mommy wear them in her hair instead.

Oh, Daddy's can really have trouble sometimes thinking outside the box! Where's the sense of adventure? Doug and Andy are awesome for wanting to show the world their own taste! I'll have to put up a blog entry about my son wearing the "earring" that his friend (a girl) gave him!

William went through a phase where he wanted to carry a purse (usually had trucks or cars in it). They get over it.
