Eddie plays dress up a lot at daycare. Last week he was really into dressing up in Leila's princess costumes. While I was in a programming workshop, I got an email from Cassie full of pictures of Princess Eddie, dressed in a Belle costume. Of course I immediately forwarded it to my dad, Dave, and Edward. When I picked Eddie up from daycare that evening he was still wearing the dress...and had added heels!
Oh! These pictures are so stinking cute. I love this kid!

| That hand on the hip totally makes the picture. |

He's one content little man in that frock. But shouldn't he have the Cinderella
dress on since he's slaving away with a bucket? |
And imagine the blackmail power they'll have over a 14 year old Eddie? Muahahahaha!
 |
| He manages surprisingly well in those heels! |
Since I couldn't get him out of the costume to go home, Cassie "let" us borrow it for the night, if we agreed to launder it. I figured that was more than fair, considering Eddie and Leila were making mud soup when I arrived.

| Stereotypes be damned. I love the innocence of childhood--where you preferences are real, not yet tainted by social pressures. |
The next morning he wore the clean costume to the store and then on to daycare. No one in the store even batted an eye at a little boy wearing a dress. Well, that's Davis for you!
 |
| Yep...it's hard to ride in the bike trailer with a dress on, Waddo! |

I have GOT to meet this kid someday! And you, my dear, are a fantastic mommy/parent. So sad to think of how many parents would freak out or stop their son from doing such a thing. Eddie will always know he is supported and loved in what he does, bravo!
oh I love it. And you know I love a little guy in dress up like my Andrew.
I can't say I've had the same reaction at stores etc (or about Andrew's pink toes) but that is kind of how I filter out people I want to hang out with and not so at least it makes that easier.
Princesses are awesome
