Dresses, Dresses, Dresses

Avery has a love for dresses. Not just any old dress, however. Only "beautiful dresses"...and yes, she can tell the difference. (I'm proud that she has such good fashion sense at the age of 3 :) Oh, and "skites" (a.k.a. skirts) are a hit, if they are either short and/or poofy.
We were in Macy's yesterday, and they had a Winter Wonderland filled w/ little girls' dresses! Avery was in heaven, looking at them all! And I used our purchases to my advantage, on our way home..."If you don't whine, you can try on your Santa dress for Daddy!"
Bryton isn't really into "handsome clothes" (as Avery calls all boys' clothing) ...he'd rather pick out something "cool" which is usually football or sport related, short sleeved, and always jeans on the bottom half. Peer pressure has already kicked in, at the age of 5 1/2! Ughhh. So, I've learned its much easier when he helps choose his clothing these days, whether its before school or in a store.
Of course, as most mother's can, I have a great way of convincing him that all of his clothes are cool...and believe me, this can involve quite the stories!
