This is how Harlan insisted on leaving the house the other day. Notice the red eyes from the 30 minute tantrum. I finally just gave in and let her wear it. Holding the diapers and all.

Sometimes, you just have to give in. The best part is when she is older and you have this pic to show her…so cute!!
Lauren
Yes, especially if she isn’t hurting anyone or anything! It will be great to show her later!

I love it…diapers & all! The other day my boys insisted when we went for a walk with the double stroller that they could bring all the car wash sponges in the stroller with them. Kids are funny little beings, that’s for sure!

That is funny! I’m sure there will be other strange things she wants to bring with us!

So true! I just figured she wasn’t hurting anyone by doing it and I didn’t want to struggle with her any longer!

Aww so adorable, well maybe not the tantrum but she’s making herself heard.
Good call Momma 🙂

She is definitely making herself heard. Sometimes too often!

I love the scarf! I learned to pick my battles with Mia! She has gone to school in some “fun” outfits! It always gives the teacher a good life but I always make sure they know that she picked out the oufit and not me! lol

She enjoyed it and surprisingly didn’t get any stares when we walked around the city!

love it, she’s a new yorker already 🙂 my daugther insisted on wearing a bathing-suit year round for awhile. i was very grateful when she gave that up.

That is too funny! I figured since she wants to take her clothes off so often maybe she would want to do it less if she picks out her outfit!

Hahahaha!!!! I know that look on her face. I know it very well, because I’ve seen it way too many times (on Chase). A look of exhaustion…. but triumph!
Such a cutiepie, red-rimmed eyes and all!!!!

I think she looks quite chic actually. Love the red and the printed scarf.

Thank you! She loved the fact that the diapers had all the sesame street characters on them. I offered her the stuffed Elmo but she refused and wanted the diapers instead!

Interesting look! She actually looks pretty fashionable in a future pop star kind of way.

She did pick out a good outfit. Just thought it was interesting she really wanted my scarf and her diapers as accessories. 🙂

ahaha! Oh man, I’ve had so many of these moments! Battles, I’m learning how to pick them!
Lauren
Yes! You have to otherwise it’s a losing battle!
