Matchy-Matchy and Dress-up

One Sunday I got myself and Alli all dressed (I still look pretty frumpy though, not gonna lie-wasn't a great Sunday apparently, I hate picking out what to wear to church:0) earlier in the morning and then Alli spilled or somehow messed up her outfit so I changed her into something else-and completely by accident we ended up completely matching! I thought it was pretty funny, often we'll end up in the same color or something I think that happens a lot to moms, but this was a little beyond that.

One random day I came into the living room to find that Alli had moved our lap top from it's stand so she could put her lap top in its "rightful" place. Made me laugh that she thinks she is super grown up and needs to do everything we do.

Now for dressup-
Starting with Ryan-we found a great deal on some pants so we bought me a couple pairs-and that night Ryan decided he'd try them on. One time while we were at Ryan's parents' house he wanted to see if he could fit in my pants. So I gave him my tightest pair I had with me and he totally still fit in them, I don't know if he could totally do up the fly, but the legs were baggy-can we say Ryan has skinny legs!!! Apparently his legs have gotten bigger since then or I've gotten smaller because this time the pants were not baggy at all-but he can still "fit" in them. We got a pretty good laugh out of this so I had to share it so I remember it.


Lastly, Ryan and I found this cowgirl dressup outfit super clearanced after Halloween so we got it as a dressup outfit for Alli. We kind of forgot about it so about two weeks ago we saw it and decided to let her play in it. She absolutely loved it. As soon as she saw it (it's actually pretty ghetto looking, but it provided some great entertainment) she got this "oh" look on her face and was super excited to wear it-funky fringed arm bands and everything. Then we found her stick pony (that I found at the dollar store-awesome) and she was all set. She started giving us these big "cheeser" grins and then proceeded to climb up on the couch to strike a pose. Ryan and I were laughing soo hard and our little cowgirl model. She's already figuring out how to work the camera. (Notice how incredibly short the dress is-yep that would be our tall little girl-I love it!) I love the cheeser grin, but I'd really like to get a pic with her natural smile- I love that one soo much more! o/well take what you can get right?




And I saw this video of her doing a funny dance in her crazy outfit. So here you go

Oh my goodness! We bought the exact same cowgirl outfit for Julia (it will be from Santa) on super clearance too! She already has a cowgirl hat and stick horse so I thought she would enjoy the dress up. That is so funny. She looks adorable.
