Are clothes really an option?

We've been "fighting" an ongoing battle with Mollie the past several weeks. She is under the belief that clothing is really an option. I will have my smallest angel dressed in a super cute outfit (most days) complete with matching bow and shoes. Then, it never fails. I will go by her class at First Kids Day Out (Mother's Day Out at church) only to find her with her pants off or around her ankles, her hair bow out and her socks and shoes off. Ugh!! This past week or so has been especially exciting. Last Sunday, Mollie wore the cutest black velveteen coverall outfit to church on Sunday. When I picked her up, Mrs. Vivian looked at me and said that she had tried all morning to keep Mollie buttoned. My only response was, "Trust me I understand." You see if Mollie is in overalls, she unbuttons the crotch. It doesn't matter where she is, she'll undo the snaps. It's an ongoing battle. At dinner the other night (same night that I took the pics below) she took her pj's off at the dinner table! I guess this is what I get for all those years of laughing at Caleb when he was little....


Notice Mollie's pants.....


Here's a bitter glimpse....you would think she's wearing a dress!

Bath time is her absolute favorite! Clothes aren't needed or wanted!

I know that of all the battles we have in our house this one is not a major one. It's just funny and very frustrating. Oh, well. Thanks for letting me share. :)
