Pretty in Pink

Annabelle loves her pink toes.

So this weekend we were hanging out on the deck, I was painting my toe nails. Annabelle was watching and wanting to imitate Mum.

Annabelle - "petty toes" (pretty toes)
Me - " do you like pretty toes? What color are they?"
Annabelle - " "pink"
Me - "pretty pink toes"
Annabelle - " petty pink toes"
Me - - " do you want pretty pink toes?"
Annabelle - " OK"

So we proceded to paint her toes pink. As soon as I was done she reached down and wiped it off the big toe. A huge tantrum insued, complete with tears, back arching and loud yelling. Enough to bring Daddy outside. "Are you having fun yet?" Go away, Daddy, we can handle this.

I fixed the toe then we sat on the swing so they could dry. We sang songs, tried to distract her from constantly wanting to touch them. It worked, my little Diva is so happy with her pretty pink toes.
