Inside Natalie's Closet

It’s no secret that I love to buy clothes for my kids.

So occasionally I post pictures of them in their new outfit.

This one is from Gymboree’s Tahitian Butterfly line.

And...oops....



Anyone else’s kid have a problem with bottoms that fall down the waist? Thank goodness for an adjustable waist. Otherwise this would happen a lot.

So anyway.

Back to pictures.



Natalie is like, “So what do we think about Bristol Palin's new face?”

Then I asked her to be like a model and she did this:









I bought a matching ring to go with the outfit. I wanted Natalie to hold the ring up to her cheek and look into the camera.

This did not go well.







I kept trying to get her to hold it up to her cheek and she found it hilarious.



“Hold the ring up to my cheek? HA!”

I eventually gave up.

And oh, I stepped on that ring the next day. Barefoot. Yes, it hurt.

Poor pretty butterfly ring.

I love your photo sessions with Natalie. She is so sassy, it reminds me of my daughter. It's always an ordeal to get photos of her. I borrowed your running into the house tactic to get a natural smile out of her yesterday, only it didn't work. Instead I had to repeat the word "booty" in funny voices. LOL

Love your wee lass with her pretty outfit.

Gosh I get so envious of girlie girls.

She's so damn cute, but you have a serious problem with Gymboree clothes. Intervention, anyone?

Mae Rae said...

I have missed natalie's closet. She is so cute and you have the best taste in clothes.

Lizbeth said...

She's adorable! And those little rings DO hurt like a mother!

Those poses! She is adorable. I'll take your hand-me-downs. Just kidding. :)

Diane said...

I'll bet they know you by name at Gymboree, don't they? I don't blame you though. If I had a little girl, especially one who loved the camera that much, I'd be the same way!

KSK said...

She is adorable!!! And a future contender for America's Next Top Model :)

Miss Rosie said...

She is so precious!

Kristina P. said...

It looks like she really hates her outfit. :)

Natalie and her outfits are always so cute! Love the butterfly ring, it looks like it wouldn't be fun to step on.

Mommy Lisa said...

OMG - hate when I step on things like that.

Cuuuuuuuuute!

My Brooke would love to get inside Natalie's closet! I used to dress her in Gymbo all of the time, matching outfits for her and her big sister. Somewhat of an obsession I think. :) Since her big sister is over it, Brooke gets her hand-me-downs, and will be outfitted til she's 8. I cannot even walk past the store.

What a little ham Naalie is!! Great smile. :)

Jayme Smith said...

Adorable!! Loved the ring!!

Bren said...

Such cute clothes! I have bought so many summer clothes for Maggie in the last few weeks it is ridiculous! Trying to get her to wear skorts as opposed to dresses every day since she still has a tendency to - you know - constantly lift her dress up.

Stephanie said...

At least there was no running into the wall this time :)

laughingmom said...

SO CUTE !! Makes me remember the days when my 15 yo daughter enjoyed dressing like that. She was a bean pole then (and still is) but they don't make adjustable waists past the preteen dept.

K said...

She is such a good little model! All I get are horrible monster faces.

Love the clothes and the ring.

Sammi said...

Ouch, been there and done that with the rings! Natalie is so pretty I love the new outfit. That color blue is so vibrant it just pops on her!

Blissed-Out Grandma said...

Wait...Bristol Palin has a new face? Love Natalie's model poses!

Katie said...

She is so adorable! I love all of her outfits. My lil girl is still 3 months away from being born and you always make me want to go shopping for bigger sizes haha.

queenbeegymboree said...

Awww, why did I look??? Now I want to go and buy some Tahitian Butterfly!! The colours are gorgeous on her, and love to the ring (but sorry your foot had to meet it!)

StardustSavannah said...

Love the colors- she is adorable. I was a kids specialist and on the visuals team for The GAP, Inc., for 3 years...boy i miss kids clothes. I used to get the best discounts, lol. I stillhave an entire lawn and leaf bag of gAP clothes that were jess's, just waiting for seanie to grow into. I couldnt bear to part with them, lol.
Loved the ring- my sympathies:)

AMY said...

She's ADORABLE!!!
