Just Ignore Them

I feel bad for Makayla some days. She is bombarded with boy stuff all the time. Lightsabers, cars, Transformers, Spiderman, etc. She puts on her princess attire and the little men run screaming in the other direction.

Sometimes it's a game to her.

Sometimes it hurts her.

So she and I have a date everyday to be girlie. We dress up, dance around and watch a princess movie. Right now, The Little Mermaid is her favorite but Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella are near and dear to her heart.

We love it!

But there is still a problem.

Boys.

They hear the word "princess" and they avoid us like the plague.

Or do they?

Here is Bryce just passing through to grab a toy. Uh-huh.

What I love is when boys pretend to not watch the princess movie. I'll look out of the corner of my eye and see one of them peeking around the corner and the other peeking over the couch. If asked if they would like to come and join us, the vehemently deny watching said princess movie and run off.

Now we just ignore them when watching the princess collection...unless it's just too tempting to raz them about it. They are too easy to tease sometimes!

I love it!

Here's another video of Makayla loving her movie and in this case Bryce is actually hating it!
