Showing off her Christmas Dress

Mom and I were shopping today and found this beautiful Christmas dress for Veronica and we just had to get it for her.  I couldn't wait to try her dress on and see if it fit and looked as adorable on as it did in the store.  Veronica wasn't quite as thrilled with the idea though.  She only got one nap today and it was late in the day and she didn't wake up in the best mood and trying on a dress and then having her picture taken was the last this she wanted to be doing.  She was so cute, I just couldn't help myself though, pictures were required.

She was still someone happy, figuring that this would be quick if she stood there.





















Not quite so happy.  She really wanted Mamma to pick her up





















Trying to go get Papa and the thought of escaping me and the camera at least made her smile.



















I guess some things, even a Papa can't help.  Lots of tears now and it probably appears as if she's being tortured, but at this point it had only been about 2 minutes since the first picture and I was hoping things would turn around.  I love her look here, it says, "Why are you still taking my picture?  Can't you tell I'm really unhappy and just want this dress off?"





















By no Mom had me laughing so hard.  Veronica kept pulling on the white fur at her neck and Mom kept saying things like, "Why is there a dead cat around my neck?"  "You know I haven't seen that neighbor cat for a few days."





















Finally one last "happy" picture and then the dress came off





















The dress is beautiful and it fits her perfectly.

  1. To get such a picture of my youngest, you'd have to get her to stop moving at all. And if she sees the camera, she tries to grab it from me, saying "cheese!" alternately with "lemme see it!"
    This is why she's called The Blur.

  2. I didn't post my blurry pictures. Veronica is getting to that point where she wants to grab the camera or crawl over to me. I would hold the camera, stand her next to the couch and then quickly back up and hope she'd still be standing there and not crawling towards me by the time I got a picture.
