Inside Natalie's Closet: Gymboree!

It’s no secret that I love to buy my children clothes. So I’ll occasionally post about the latest outfit that I purchased.

The outfit that I’m going to share is from Gymboree’s Smart Girls Rock line. This will be one of Natalie’s preschool outfits.



“Hey Natalie, want to take some pictures?”



“You can act like a model!”









Those socks are supposed to be knee high socks but Natalie is short so they basically cover her entire leg.

Natalie sometimes likes to make faces at the camera.

Here’s her impersonation of an uptight rich woman.



Her reaction to Real Housewives of New Jersey Danielle Staub. (I know sweets, she scares me too.)



And this is Natalie wondering what in the world happened to Mel Gibson?



Then I ran into the side of the house, because this always makes Natalie laugh.









*Shirt change*

So when it starts to get cold, and it will since we’re in Wyoming, I also got a long sleeved top to go with the skirt.







Everything went well at first.

But then Natalie spotted a moth.



She did not like said moth.



Then she did an impression of John Mayer singing.



Smiled for me when I ran into the house.



And decided to carry a rock around on a spoon. (For some reason when I asked her if she wanted to take pictures she went, “Yes, can my spoon come?” Um. Okay?)



Then I told her I’d be taking one last photo so she waved for the camera.



Goodbye blog readers!

Soooooo cute! I love her outfits, but she's too pretty! I kind of have a hard time remembering that I'm supposed to be looking at the clothes!

I really hope to see her on Toddlers and Tiaras soon.

Cammy said...

She is too adorable! Love the "knee highs"!

Adorable!

Having just been to a John Mayer concert, she does a spot on impression! :-)

She's so adorable. With all boys I don't get to buy cute things like this. We're hoping for a niece soon so I can get my pink fix.

Melanie said...

Your daughter is SOO super cute. I love the narratives :). He, he....Stopping by from SITS and am now a follower :).

I love all her adorable expressions. She is too darlin'. I have two tomboys myself but they have never been keen on dress up or barbie...

Jenn said...

You totally got me with the "WTH, Mel Gibson" picture! Also, John Mayer...

I always look forward to these when you post them :).

Sara said...

Taking pictures? Boring!

Spoon and rock frivolity? Yes please!

Kids are weird.

Yours is cute.

Adorable. I am sorry that I never tried that running into the side of the house trick when we did our Christmas card picture and ALWAYS ended up screaming curses at my kiddies.
Best,
Colleen

I think this is one of my faves!

Tam said...

I'd tell you to quit your day job and become a professional photographer, but your blog is way too good to quit writing!! Natalie's Closet is pretty much my favorite segment :)

Chantal said...

She's so cute and you take some great photos!

Bossy Betty said...

Adorable--the outfits, but especially the super model!

Cheryl said...

She is too stinking cute!! And don't worry Danielle Staubb scares the crap out of us all and we are all still trying to figure out where Mel went wrong.

Brittany said...

GOL SHE IS AH DOOR AH BULL!

seriously!!!

Wait til I show you all the clothes I got for Aidyn man! I am going to do a "fall line" in a month!

Gettysburg Mom said...

The amazing part is how many of your listed items on ebay are NWT. It's like you've learned to not take the tags off until she actually wears it. That seems like a much better plan than my approach of taking all of the tags off, ignoring them in the closet until I get frustrated with the lack of closet space and then giving the clothes away.

::this is me taking notes::

Rae said...

Great pictures! She is a cutie!

Heather said...

She is adorable x2. So is the outfit.

Steph said...

She's a cutie and I love the outfits. I am also a fan of her John Mayer imitation.

Leeanna said...

She is just a sweetheart! I did tell you to buy a shotgun for when she grows up and starts dating, right?

Sammie said...

Super cute outfit! Of course, Natalie would look cute dressed in a brown paper sack, but whateva. :)

Leslie said...

I really like that first outfit!

McKenzie said...

She is super adorable, and so are those outfits! I second the shotgun idea haha!

Ed said...

She a dollbaby.

Loved the captions.

I love those outfits. But I don't think my 16 yo will want that kind of outfit., but you never know.

Randi Troxell said...

JoeinVegas said...

She has the cutiest smiles, and those modeling poses down.

alessandra said...

OMG she's so good at modeling, and of course she's so cute, but that's obvious.

Rachel said...

Can I just say that your posts about buying your kids tons of clothes make me feel way less guilty about the large amount of shopping I do for my own kids. :)

And she looks adorable, of course!

Vodka Logic said...

Third picture down with the pink shirt... freakin adorable.. what a cutie

She has serious potential as a model. Too cute.

Foursons said...

I love those socks! Her John Mayer impersonation is perfect. She's gonna be a star someday.

Crossed Fingers said...

Aw she is just too cute! She really could be a model! Beautiful hair and beautiful eyes! Aww....she makes me want a girl that much more!

Laura said...

Your daughter is so adorable! :) Have you thought about taking head shots so she can do some catalog modeling?!?! I think she would be PERFECT for that!

Michelle said...

I love buying clothes for my kids too. It's like an obsession. But I have 3 girls... so I only uy sales! LOL I'd spend way more money than I already do.

I love her hair!

Heather said...

THAT IS IT!!!!! SHE BELONGS IN GYMBOREE'S MAGAZINE....SERIOUSLY. Adorable, adorable. Glad I'm not the only one that has to hurt myself to get my kid to smile. Wtf?!

Jen said...

So cute! I can see a real resemblance to Tommy in these pics!

Linda Medrano said...

All she needs for that outfit is a little pair of pink stilettos. I'm just sayin...

Gigi said...

I am so totally seeing a fashion blog in that girl's future....

Beth Zimmerman said...

She's adorable! I bet she could BE a children's model if you wanted to pursue that!

Jenn@the loves of jenn said...

OMG - you kill me. The John Mayer one.....LOL!

Intense Guy said...

She is a cute lil' one.

How about some equal time for the other kid?

:)

Krista said...

She is so adorable! Really makes me wish I had a girl too! I love the Mel Gibson and John Mayer photos! LOL.

BoldAsLove said...

You know I love the JM ;) Great post!

Sarahf said...

So Cute!! And from now on, whenever I'm invited anywhere, I'm going to ask "can my spoon come?". I may find the number of invitations reduces, but hey! I'll still have my spoon. :D If you ever get bored of Natalie, can I have her?

Cupcake Murphy said...

I admire you that you can function knowing your daughter can morph into John Mayer. This was one of the funniest things I've seen/read in a long time.

Lacie @ Creative Attempts said...

oh my gosh girl clothes are so much funner than boys lol

Lindy Leigh said...

You need to make these into a collage to hang on your wall...

Thanks for the mini fashion show! She can model for me anytime :)

Pat said...

That girl is a cute as a bug! I love her modeling photos, and even better, your running commentary!

jayayceeblog said...

What a hoot! You two are too funny. Gymboree is totally missing out on a natural model if they don't hire that kid immediately. Such cute outfits. You should probably change spots where you run into the house so your termite inspector doesn't have a heart attack. =)

Tonya said...

Love the skirt!! She's so pretty!

K A B L O O E Y said...

It should go without saying that she deserves to be earning her college money by modeling. She's adorable and personality-packed.

Sarah said...

The what in the world happened to Mel Gibson face is sooo funny! That made me laugh! Cute pictures! Your daughter is adorable!!

Shylah Santiago said...

She is the cutest little girl ever! How adorable!
