Kids are so damn weird
6 months ago when we were in Cleveland, you had to nearly drug and tie down the 6 yr old to get her to put on clothes. Even if asthmaticeog or Beware the Beast Man and Cathyclysmic were stopping by, you still had to seriously coerce her to greet our guests in anything other than her drawers.

I just went to wake her up (she's lazy this summer) and she completely spazzed because she'd gotten hot in the night and taken off her jammie bottoms. She made me leave the room before she'd come out from under the blanket. :wtf:

1. Yay! Our little girl is discovering modesty!
Maybe she'll stop wiping poo on the bathroom walls soon! ;)

It makes sense, dear: 4 years = running around the house naked. 5 years = wanting to hang out with our friends in her skivvies. 6 years = dressed head-to-toe in burlap.

2. She's at that weird age
Last summer one of my 8 year old twins thought the neck of a t-shirt I bought her was too low; "if I bend over people can see everything" (like there was anything to see other than her bony little chest). Two days later they were doing cartwheels in the front yard and she wanted to take her shirt off because she was hot. The pendulum swings from modest to immodest and back from ages 7 to about 10. Have fun!

4. She was REALLY self-conscious when she needed help at the pool
She couldn't get her wet swimsuit back up after using the bathroom, so I had to help her and she was all, "please don't look at my boobies." (I suppose when I was 6, I thought nipples were boobies too.)

8. According to H, she has three of them.
(She's getting nipples and navels confused.)

9. I'm shocked she didn't say "booties" like she usually does
She seems to have her anatomy confused. :D
