Pageant – I think we’re gonna make it

September 7, 2007 by Amy

OK, so this morning I was getting nervous about the pageant tomorrow.  Lexi still wasn’t sold on either of the dresses we had picked out.  I had no frilly socks that fit them.  No new Sunday School shoes.  No hair bows.  I talked to Mom on the phone last night and she planned on taking them shopping on their day together today. 

But when she came over this morning, I found one more dress we already had that could work for Lexi.  It’s white with burgundy flower on the top. She was ALL. OVER. wearing that dress.  And then we tried on her white glitter slip on shoes and they looked perfect with no socks required.  Then Emma tried on her dress and since it’s pink with a brown sash, so do you wear white shoes or black?  Then I remembered she also has multi-colored glitter shoes that are trimmed in brown with a bow on them.  They were perfect and also no socks required.  Whew.  Only thing lacking was hair bows and Mom is on the mission as we speak. 

Lexi did. not. want to take off her dress and shoes but the dress is dry-clean only so I had to force it off her.  She wasn’t happy.  But I’m hoping that means she’ll now be excited to wear her outfit tomorrow.  Whew.

Emma of course is excited and twirls and smiles.  I hope she doesn’t freak being on stage by herself.  We’re gonna have “practice” again tonight so hopefully that will help.
