Breakfast of Champions


Marissa has officially left the highchair. The last few times we tried to put her in it she would squeal and squirm until we finally gave up and realized -- she's ready for a booster chair!

And not only is she ready for a booster, but she likes to sit at the little white table in the kitchen with Lindsey. Here's a photo of them from this morning, sharing breakfast while wearing their matching yellow sleepers. Yes, the sleepers are EXACTLY alike.

We resisted the urge to buy in twos for a long time, buying Marissa and Lindsey the same but slightly different items. Normally we would buy one a yellow sleeper and the other a pink or blue one from the same manufacturer. But this was a Costco stop, yellow it was, and it had the same decorations on them.

This morning when Lindsey got up she wanted to get dressed immediately. I knew Marissa was wearing her yellow sleeper, so I asked Lindsey, "Are you sure you don't want to get dressed later? It's the weekend, you know!" No, she wanted to get dressed right away.

She had her clothing all picked out (down to the matching underwear...no lie!) when Marissa heard that she was up, crawled up the stairs and came toddling in. The minute Lindsey saw her in her sleeper, she gasped, turned to me and said, "Mommy, I want to get dressed LATER!" and out the door the two of them went, giggling and squealing.

Some day she will be absolutely appalled that she wanted to wear the same clothing as her sister, but for now it's fun!
