I just might hate princesses!

I used to think it would be so cute and sweet when the time would come that Avery would love princesses. Now, I am singing a different tune. In fact, I think they drive me crazy. Her obsession has gone to a whole new level. She believes she is a princess and now regular clothes are no longer suitable for this little princess living in my home. It is a fight daily to get her to wear normal clothes. She is quite certain that she needs to wear some sort of dress or she is not a princess. I'm not even kidding when I say she won't even put on a pair of pants or capri's. She throws a wicked fit and I have to threaten to take the princess dresses away. Not to mention that is all she wants to watch now. If it doesn't have a princess in it, it doesn't belong on our television screen. What saddens me the most about all of this is that when ever Erik and I do something for her that we know she'll love, it usually turns into some sort of nightmare for us. Oh what we go through for our kiddos. I just have to remind myself that she is only little once and these minor occurrences, will one day be the least of my problems.

Oh man! I don't blame you for hating the princess stuff! I am so glad Ava isn't there yet (even though I have a feeling it is right around the corner...) Good Luck!

Maybe you can get her to just wear a little crown with regular clothes or something.

I don't blame you. I am actually glad that my girls could care less about the princesses. Although I never understood what was so fun about them. I am just fine with them not discovering them.

Some kids have strong opinions...that's why you see kids dressed funny at church...meaning I have seen kids with clothes underneath church clothes. My cousin actually when she was little HAD to wear her swimsuit all the time and would not take it off...and she would wear it to church!!! You just have to create something that works for you and her and compromise...good luck..
