Playing pretend

I think one of my favorite of Reese's recent developments is her heightened interest in playing pretend. Make-believe is a big part of playtime these days, which was always a big thing for me as a child, so it is really fun (and brings back memories) to build forts, play dress up, or just make up silly stories and run with them. A couple of nights ago, we put on sume tunes, built a fort and pretended we were fairy princesses. Here's R in her very, very fancy costume.
Pleased as punch

Mommy, YOU wear it

Even though this was when she stumbled and caught herself against the wall, I love this. It wasn't intentional, but in the moment, it looks like she's got some mad dance moves.

And yes, the socks are an integral part of the overall look.

Those moves rival Michael Jackson's Beat It! Nice work, Reese.
Are there pics of mommy in the outfit, as well? :-P
