Red Neck Addison

"Hi, My name is Addison, aka Beekers. My mom thinks she knows what is cool, but it is my first week of preschool and I want to impress. I will leave this hat in the car and take it out only when I need to look really cute. Mom doesn't like it for some weird reason, but I know what is cool!"
Okay, this started with the Andrus Family reunion auction. Addie desperately wanted to win something, she had her eyes on this Bass Pro Shops trucker hat. Finally when they came up to bid on Addie yelled $2! Nobody outbid her (shocker). I thought it would be something I could sneak in the DI pile in a week or so, but no, this is her favorite hat. She wears it quite often, and pulls it out when she needs to look really cool. I take pride, and plenty of money in dressing my girls cute. I put her in her cute flower pink gymboree dress for her 3rd day of preschool, then when she hops out of the car, she has the hat on. I think of making it a fight, but figure if she doesn't know she looks like a dork, then the other 4 year olds won't either. Plus, I will really make fun of her for it one day...

That is awesome! The problem is... you think that you can make fun of her one day. And one day she is going to be SO mad for letting her wear that. It's a no win situation. Although, right now it makes for an entertianing blog. So, in reality. Both are winning.

This reminds me of going through Garens clothes with Kianna & Hannah. At least 3/4 of Garens clothes were Hannahs. Half way through Hannah said, "Couldn't you make me wear somthing girly once?" Uh, no. She wouldn't wear anything remotely girly.

Funny Funny cute Addie. I love that she bid on it herself too!

Addie Stakes her claim on "trucker hat" trend setting...


“It’s funny,” Timberlake says in the new issue of Fashion Rocks magazine. “I keep hearing Ashton Kutcher say how he was responsible for trucker caps. I’ve heard him make that statement before.” But Timberlake insists he and his William Rast fashion line partner and childhood friend Trace Ayala are the real trendsetters. “Trace and I were wearing them when we were seventeen,” Mr. SexyBack says. Come to find out, a young hipster in Anytown, USA has them all beat. Ms. Beekers, as her friends call her, has been sporting her Bass Pro Shops mesh cap to preschool.

Okay, that is hilarious and might I add Miss Beekers, I am not surprised at all! Some of the outfits that girl try to pull off, I can't wait until she is older and I get to make fun of her too! Lots of pics, H, lots of pics.

Picking your battles!! The sign of a good mama! She is always a cutie.

(Noah wore a ridiculous shirt and his lime green crocs to church last sunday. It wasn't worth the battle - besides, he did have church pants on!)
