Conversations with Rylee while she is home convalescing

Me: "And you better not spill that on my floor!"
Rylee: "Mom, do you love your floors more than anything?"
Me: "Sometimes I do. Especially when they're clean."

Apparently it's been awhile since Rylee has been to a mall. We entered today through Macy's and she stopped to admire the shoes, dresses, and then stood enraptured at the makeup counter. Only the sight of the perfume counter and me telling her I would put some on her got her to move from the makeup displays.

"Mom, are we allowed to do that???"

Once she smelled delicious I finally dragged her into the main portion of the mall where she stood in amazement.

"You mean there's more than one store here???"

She thought she'd died and gone to heaven. Especially when she spotted a be-dazzled, be-glittered and be-rhinestoned denim skirt in The Children's Place. Fortunately I could play the upcoming birthday card.

She is the girliest girl I have ever seen. I think I'm going to take her for a pedicure for her birthday instead of having a party. I can't wait for our future shopping adventures. I hope daddy will be able to support this hobby--she was getting a little angry at me saying, "No, that costs too much money," over and over again today...

Ashley's 6th birthday party was a a girly party where each girl got their hair and nails done. It was so fab! And you know you've trained your girls when after you tell them they can't buy it, they respond with "Oh, it's too much money?" hehe.
