Red Dress/White Dress

This past weekend, my family traveled up to Des Moines for the celebration of Kate and Charlie's wedding. Grandpa bought me a beautiful red dress for the occasion, which I wore gleefully.

For some odd reason, recently I have developed this new behavior pattern of a distaste for men. My dad hopes I will keep up this distaste until I am at least 30, so he won't have to worry about me dating or wearing more orange bikini's. But in the next two photos, you will see more proof of my distaste for men. The first one is Uncle Myles holding me and you can see Aunt Leah trying to console me.
After Leah calmed me down, Ben wanted to hold me. As soon as I realized a man was holding me, the tears started to flow again. So Ben passed me over to Stacey and suddenly I was calm again!
Midway through the reception, lets just say I had an accident. It's called bladder control people, and I don't have it yet. Don't laugh at me, it could happen to any of you! Thankfully, my mom had a spare dress for me in the diaper bag. I'm overjoyed she is always prepared. Adorned in my new dress Aunt Leah bought me, I danced with her a bit. Really I was talking to the little baby in her stomach, I'm letting them I already love my little cousin!

The next morning, I couldn't resist some good quality time with Grandma!!! (note to Grandma, when I saw this photo on my computer screen, I got a huge smile on my face and started to talk to you! My mom looked at me and asked if I saw Grandma! She was shocked that I reacted to a photo of Grandma!)

Dear Daphne,
I have the same reaction when I see YOUR photo on MY computer, I smile and talk to you. I have a photo of you set as my screen saver. Many people at my office come by to see if there's a new photo of you. They tell me how beautiful you are and remark on your Mommy's photography skills.
I look forward to seeing you on your Daddy's birthday. Will you wait up until we get there?
My love to you,
Grandma
