This is Little Sissy's new favorite phrase. I don't know where my prissy girls come from. I like to look pretty. It just doesn't fit into my life right now. I wear make-up an average of once a week--when I'm going to church usually. And I had to have my ears re-pierced recently because I wear earrings so rarely that my holes closed up. But my girls LOVE makeup. Just ask them. Little Sissy has a whole spiel, which she will share with anyone who will listen (including her pediatric opthamologist, who made the mistake of asking what the pink stuff all over her cheeks was).
"Girls wear makeup. Boys don't wear makeup. Boys wear chapstick. Daddy a boy. Daddy don't wear makeup. I a girl. I yike makeup."
Today I went into the dining room where the girls were coloring and found this.
It was all over her lips, too, in various shades of Crayola Washables. She hurried and licked it off when she realized she might get in trouble. "But Mommy, I YIKE makup!"

I love it!!
You're going to have to get her her own little "cosmetics" bag so she can distinguish between real make-up & Crayola make-up, I think!
Adaline is obsessed with makeup and she's NEVER seen me put it on (OK, maybe lipstick). She watched Jamison's mom apply makeup once, and she was hooked. The only problem is that Arthur gets a little jealous and she loves to make others beautiful...
Reminds me of the time Lis was babysitting for the trips and one of them used magic marker all over her body, then pulled the cover up to her chin. Body art, I guess.
So cute! Ariana likes to paint herself with paint/markers, too.
I love her make-up mantra! I also love how she uses wearing as an excuse not to do stuff... ie. kissing, cleaning! :)
