So Skye is definitely MY daughter

So this morning Skye was enjoying her smoothie in her high chair as I was loading up the car and getting ready to leave for work. I walked into the kitchen, and she was holding her foot and whining. I moved her fingers to find blueberry stains on her socks. I tried to rub it off with a wipe, but it didn't help. I thought maybe she would get over it if I put her shoes on, but the stain was still visible with her mary janes on. So I removed the sock and replaced it with a clean one. All better!

I completely understand because having a stain on my clothes drives me bonkers. I just didn't realize that this OCD preference could manifest itself in a one year old. I mean, the girl doesn't care if she walks around with stains all over her shirt, but a stain on the clean, white sock is an abomination. She is SO my child!

Also this week... I bought Skye a bathing suit over the weekend. We're going on vacation at Virginia Beach this year, and I'm SO excited. So I got Skye a little red and white polka dot one-piece with a matching skirt and hat. I also got her a little white hooded cover-up. So on Monday night she asked me to put her hat on her head and her cover up over her clothes. I did, and she continued to play in her room while I went out to the kitchen to work on dinner. A few minutes later, Skye walked in with her bathing suit skirt on her head, holding up her swim suit as if to say, "Can you please put this one me?" Where was the camera!? It was so cute.

Since then she has asked to wear her bathing suit a few times. We'll put it on her and let her dance around in it until she tries to rip it off. I love that she loves it so much. She is going to have a blast at the beach!
