Elliott's morning routine




Elliott has her own routine! Every morning she looks forward to fixing her hair, getting dressed, and even applying make up! I know she is way to young for make up, however, she is not to young to learn the importance of 'making yourself pretty.' So, I put together her own make up bag (which for now is just in a ziploc bag, maybe Santa will bring her her own make up bag)! She has a translucent face powder and translucent eye shadow. She gets the joy of putting make up on, and I get the joy of knowing it isn't bright pink or blue or some other odd color! And you'd never know she is wearing make up! It is a win win for all of us! Oh, and of course she has to use hair products (mousse, hairspray, and so on) and likes to put in her own clips! She is getting better at putting the clips in and having them stay! And then it is off to her closet to attempt to find something to wear! It would sure be nice if she wasn't so darn picky - no tags, so seams that itch, and no socks! It sure is a good thing we have extra time each morning to allow for this freedom to get ready! I couln't imagin having to get Elliott and myself ready in a timely manner!
