Mags is a bit, shall we say, picky, when picking out outfits for the day. She must, personally, go to her closet, look at all her dresses (she really refuses anything but dresses or pjs), and pick one. With Maura, she could care less what she is wearing, so that makes it extra weird with mags. We may go through 9 or 10 choices before she picks one.
Even after she finally picks one, she may decide to change her outfit multiple times before we leave the house. It is almost a given that by day's end she will have gone through at least 5 outfits. She even wants her panties to match her outfits, that means pantie changes are also common. It was quite cute, then laundry day comes... not so cute. Or, the melt down comes when the dress she wants is in the laundry... not pretty. I don't think Maura really even knows what clothes she owns... so not true of mags. She remembers.
She is also quick to comment on your outfit. "Are those new shoes Mommy?" "Why did you change your shirt?" She always compliments strangers and friends on their outfits.
When I bring home a bag of clothes (all too often) for the girls, Maura just looks at the bag and is annoyed if I ask her to try something on. She wants to hold it up against her and measure it. Mags will take everything out of the bag, ask who it is for and try it on. She even goes over to the counter, gets a chair to climb up on, gets on the counter, grabs scissors and cuts off the tag... not cool when I want to return something! Can't imagine the high school years if this keeps up!
