I have a pair of jeans like that myself. It's irritating, but not *that* big a deal for me, since there's real pockets in the back.
But half of Ana's clothes, it seems, have flaps but no pockets, or stitchery that looks like a pocket (but isn't), or, in one notable case, an actual pocket on her overals that is essentially made useless by the embroidery one it. It's damn *annoying*, especially when you ignorantly say "put that in your pocket" and they can't, so they get upset.
And all that pink, too. God, if I never see another little girl in pink, I can die happy. It's not even that I dislike the color, it's just so predominant, it gets tiresome. I do my level best (usually) to dress her in non-pink clothing - or at least, to make it so that the pink is minimal, not the entire outfit. Today I didn't quite manage that, but that's not *my* fault. When Ana gets bigger and needs new clothes, I'll see if I can campaign to get Less Pink in her clothing. (I'm still putting out a call for boy clothes, by the way, if anybody has any to donate to the cause here. She's ~ a 2T, but a bit on the short side.)
If you're in the city tomorrow, you might want to go to this thing in Battery Park City... ( Read more... )
The stuff at BPC is nice - Ana and I go twice a week to the preschool play thing, and one day to the playground up by stuy, the one with the bicycle carosel and the hammocks and all.

( Best episode yet )
So, today, Ana was eating something and she wanted to say that it was yummy. Except that after she said it, she decided that wasn't good enough, so she decides to rephrase it:
"Taste... taste... taste.... Tastes good!"
She's getting smarter by the day. Now if only we were clear on the whole distinction between "What's your name" and "What's your mommy's name". *sighs*
