Calling all Drama Queens....

So need I ever tell you that AnnMarie is a fashion fionata and very much a drama queen. CJ and I joke that she is as stubborn as I am and as hard willed as he is. Poor child. Actually, poor Noah. With all of her drama it will be a wonder if we remember he is in the room....which brings me to Sunday. It all began when we were getting ready for church and I had already dressed AnnMarie, gave Noah his clothes to put on and was trying desperately to get to the bathroom so I could at least get a shower. I post this picture first, even though it is one of the final products just so you can see the "refusal to meet mom in the eye stare"....again stubborn as her momma. AnnMarie is not wearing the original outfit I had put her in, it is the final product. However, she knocked on the door while I was trying to do my hair and asked if she could wear this....

To which I boldly told her NO! It is freezing outside! I will come and see what else you might could wear when i get done with my hair. To which AnnMarie responded with...(written all over her face...we'll see. I'll do it myself"...) I go to check on her, in which she has shut her bedroom door, and she has changed her shirt to the above tank top and has put the shorts on. (which required taking off shoes and putting them back on) Need I tell anyone that it is like 33 degrees outside and my daughter is trying to go with the bare necessities. No to mention it comes no where close to matching. which is the least of my worries considering she has been fighting off a cold all week. To which I tell her that she is not wearing that, change her clothes back and this is the response I get.

We were not allowed to make eye contact, she never said a word, but she is obviously not happy with me. This stubbornness continues all the way to church, a 30 minute drive, and I am finally the cool mommy after church. Whew. What a drama queen!

Just in case you forgot how determined she was....she was really confused after I dressed her back when i got the camera out. I just couldn't refuse to take her picture. I can't wait to show her one day when her daughter is giving her a fit! Was I really this stubborn????
