Ella and her “sun dresses”

I know I’ve written about this recently, but it’s becoming a bit of an issue. Ella pretty much refuses to wear anything but tank tops, sun dresses, leotards. tights, tutus, and skirt/shorts. I realize that this doesn’t sound like a big deal, but we live in San Francisco and it’s not very warm in the summer. We really don’t care what she wears, but we don’t want her to be cold. It also turns into this hysterical battle and it’s just not fun. We have to meet somewhere in the middle. I got her to meet me in the middle today with a short pair of pants and a sun dress/tank top. We had a lot of fun today. Here are some pictures – mostly from My Gym. She is an amazing kid with such a strong will and need for independence. For the most part, we embrace it, but when it’s 50ยบ out, she needs a sweatshirt!

All that hard work made Ella want to chill a little bit on this funny swing.

    I hope it’s hot when you allo come to NJ so she can wear her sundresses comfortably. Love you and good luck. Mom
