6:54 AM
Our little fashionista wakes up in a stylish owl pajama set from the chic Carters collection. In her excitement to start the day, she promptly unleashes her bladder all over them.
7:03 AM
I switch her into a onesie emblazoned with my university’s name. It feels a bit too much pressure for such a tiny tot, so I change her again into a onesie that proudly states “Diva Brat.” My husband takes a look and nearly has a heart attack.
7:28 AM
Breakfast time! While enjoying a jar of green beans, she sneezes, resulting in a colorful mess. Time for a change into a bright floral t-shirt and matching leggings. My husband quips that she looks like she’s ready for a cruise vacation.
9:12 AM
A surprise visit from a friend! I quickly dress her in a pink velour tracksuit that was a gift, albeit with an amusingly misspelled version of her name.
10:32 AM
Once my friend leaves, I swiftly switch her back into her cruise ship attire. The tracksuit? Into the burn pile it goes!
11:14 AM
After a bottle of bubbles that doesn’t sit well, I try to put her in a onesie. Instead, she spots her old Halloween costume (Tinkerbell wings and a nylon skirt) and insists on wearing it.
12:14 PM
She’s still in her Halloween outfit.
1:14 PM
Yep, still wearing it.
2:02 PM
Removing Sharpie from nylon is a true test of patience.
2:28 PM
I finally manage to wrangle off the wings and settle her down for a nap.
2:32 PM
I worry she might get chilly, so I add wool pants, socks, and a hoodie.
2:40 PM
My husband points out that her room is basically a sauna at 90 degrees. Off come the socks!
4:00 PM
It’s time for a birthday party! I dress her in a cute sundress with a tulle skirt and a sparkly heart.
4:05 PM
My husband remarks that her outfit is perfect for dancing on a Mardi Gras float. I ignore him and add some blingy sunglasses.
4:28 PM
At the party, she mistakes the Mickey Mouse cake for a stuffed animal and gives it a big hug. As she attempts to lick her dress clean, I change her into the only spare item in the diaper bag: her bathing suit.
5:46 PM
Bath time! I strip her down, and she’s the happiest I’ve seen her all day.
7:23 PM
I finally get her into pajamas and tuck her in for the night. It dawns on me that I’ve been wearing the same shirt all day—now adorned with green beans, urine, and cake remnants.
