New favorites

Annabelle is somehow old enough (at 2 years and 11 months) to begin to identify her favorite things. She has declared almost daily for a few weeks now that RED is her favorite color. And she asked me for red pants.

So I found these pants for her, but I couldn't resist sewing rickrack all along the bottom hem. Thank god she loved it, because I really loved it. (And matching up my loves with her loves is not all that common during these days of being two years old.)

It wasn't until I took this picture that I realized we have gradually been collecting more and more red clothing for her... mostly at her request. Happy to be wearing her new Spring hat that I knitted up last month, along with her red Christmas shoes, plus her new red pants, well, this picture just makes me laugh! Posing with Dave, she is (very purposely) demonstrating this happiness with red for the camera.
