The other day we were driving in the car. Claire had a pair of dress-up shoes and she said, "my princess shoes", to which Audra started crying and screaming- "Claire keeps saying they are her dress-up shoes, but they're not- they're MY dress-up shoes!"
Trying to diffuse this obvious catastrophe and end of the world moment, I said, "Audra, they are both of your shoes- they belong to both you and Claire."
Audra turned to Claire and very matter-of-factly said, "Claire, they are not your shoes. They are both of our shoes."
Claire then immediately turned to Audra and very calmly said, "My princess shoes." Audra screamed and wailed for 5 more minutes.
For being only 2, this girl has all of our numbers!
She also takes after Audra. She now insists on picking out all of her own clothes and putting them on all by herself. She loves dresses, and LOVES Audra's Pinkalicious dress. Sometimes, she wears 3 shirts and no pants. That's the way we roll at this house- anything goes when it comes to clothes.
But doesn't she look SO cute?

I just want you to know how much this reminds me of Penny - I swear, Claire and Penny are cut from the same cloth. She makes Max cry in EXACTLY the same way - she knows exactly what buttons to push. Little stinkers, you gotta love them.
