The Morning Torture

Picking out Sydney's clothes in the morning is a daily battle. I believe that it really should be Sydney's choice but I also believe that she should wear shirts that cover her belly button...particularly in December. Its not that she likes short shirts but really just that she is growing about 1 foot per day. By the time we get home from old navy with a new shirt it already doesn't fit her. So she's forced to wear sweaters (a fate worse than death in 2nd grade apparently). She also has "sock issues." I'm a little more sympathetic because I'm also very picky about my socks.

All-in-all we have decided to move this morning 45 minute ritual to the evenings before bed and you can see how very pleased she is about the process.

And if her arm wasn't in the way you'd see her belly button.
