Mouse has three other princess dresses at home, and I ruled out two automatically because of their length. I didn't want them dragging on the street. The other has a hoop and I thought that might be awkward, so was glad she didn't choose that one. So many of the girls dress up though--for a pretty few (too many) pennies, there's a boutique that will do the girls up really nice--make-up, glitter and hair, even a new dress and shoes if you want. We saw quite a few of those little princesses around. So adorable, but so expensive!Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31552114.post-43823131971664284842015-05-04T17:27:20.664-07:002015-05-04T17:27:20.664-07:00Athira - I don't like to admit it, but I kind ...Athira - I don't like to admit it, but I kind of like that my daughter leans toward the girly girl side on occasion. I never was like that, but it can be fun. :-)<br /><br />I know every child is different, but I think my daughter had more fun this time at Disneyland than she did when she was 3. It's also a lot harder to get her to leave. She did not want to leave and she was very clear about that. Feet stomping and all.

I had several of her books for awhile there for when the mood took, but about the time I burnt out on Patricia Cornwell, I lost interest in trying Kathy Reichs. I've only read one of Faye Kellerman's books, and I really liked it.<br /><br />I am glad you are enjoying Elizabeth Is Missing (you are probably finished with it by now). That's one I am hesitant to read because of the subject matter. I've heard great things about it though.
