The kid's first pair of skinny jeans....

She was reluctant to get them as they're rather trendy and now they're her favorite pair...

She's awfully cute!

Please note the mismatched socks and Wonder Woman t-shirt

The jeans are awesome- they flatter you.; September 28, 2008 at 11:52 AM

Things I've Discovered I Miss - Mom

understanding the weather patterns
the ease of throwing my bag in a car and not having to carry my life on my back
knowing my way around - I've gotten lost on foot too many nights this week, and it's COLD
the ease of finding and picking up a newspaper or magazine
my friends
avocados
clothing sizing that has some sort of continuity and isn't a mixture of Euro, UK, and US - but without distinguishing between the various numbers!
labels I can understand
a familiar grocery store - one where I know where the spice is that I only need to buy once every three years
Crest toothpaste
My Pillows
Tapioca Pudding- homemade, from the red box
