A new trend?

The picture below is Courtney (3 months old) wearing her blessing dress.

My sweet neighbor, Ana Marie, volunteered to make me this beautiful dress. She heard me complaining one day about not being able to find my dream blessing dress (I wanted a white dress with a pink bow). The dress turned out gorgeous, better than I had even imagined. I loved it and I still love it! (Thank you again Ana Marie!)

The blessing dress now hangs in Courtney's room as a decoration.

The past few months, Court has pointed to her blessing dress asking to wear it. She calls it the "princess dress". I've had to explain to her over and over that it's a baby dress and it's too small. One day after telling Courtney no for the billionth time, I was frustrated, so I got the dress down to put on her so she could see for herself that it was too small. I figured this would finally put an end to her asking and whining.

BUT....this is what happened.....

The dress fit her perfectly. Even more perfectly than it fit her when she was a baby.

I was totally baffled.. I still am???? It doesn't make sense to me..at all!!!

So far, Court has worn her "blessing dress" three times and she loves it. She prances around like she's a "real" princess, it's sooo cute! Scott and I figure we might as well get the most use out of the dress as we can. Lol!!!

I do have a favor to ask... If any of you have a daughter around Court's age, can you try on her blessing dress and then let me know the outcome? I'm curious... maybe this will start a new trend?? Two year olds wearing their blessing dresses, who would of ever thought???? LOL!!!
