| | Tankini Time!
This past weekend the Lee family went swim suit shopping. I found this cute tankini at Old Navy for Chloe. It looked pretty harmless on the rack and even Richard agreed to this purchase as it wouldn't be revealing any bare midriff on his baby girl. I also figured that this would be one of the few times in life that she'd be able to pull off wearing horizontal stripes.
The next morning, I excitedly tried the tankini on Chloe. As we stood and exclaimed how cute she looked in the swim suit, Richie comes over and says, "Umma (mommy), Chloe looks like a zebra". And sure enough, my little boy was able to taint my view of how Chloe looked in that tankini. I still chuckle when I think of that comment.
 
I think that this is the beginning of many "honest moments" in store for Chloe. She'll have on outfits that she deems cute, trendy, etc and her older brother will be there to tell her like it is. :)
It reminds me of the times when growing up, I was the oldest "honest" sibling. My sister Susan had this horrendous perm and knowing that she loved it, I would ask her, "you really think you look cute in that perm? b/c you don't". See below for consensus:
Or the times that I'd tell Gloria to stop stuffing her face w/ food or she'd never lose her baby weight. (wish I had a photo readily available). Of course this was all back in the day. Nowadays, it's somehow reversed and I'm more likely to hear "honest" comments from my sisters. What can I say except that you gotta love siblings! :)
