My wonderful husband has made it pretty clear that he would like Miss Delainey to keep certain words from her vocabulary. Words like boys, tube tops, boys, shorts, boys...and bikinis. Maybe in his head, if she just doesn't know what these words are...it is not an issue we will have to worry about (HA!)
So when I was shopping with my mom last weekend, we ran into Gymboree to check out some of the ever adorable clothes for Miss Delainey - even though we all know she in no way needs clothes. I of course gravitated right to the bathing suits and particularly the little 2 piece bathing suits with the matching hats, cover-ups, shoes and other accessories (the girl has to look good) and started laughing when I thought about what my husband would say if I brought home a 2 piece swimsuit for his precious little angel.
Of course we all know that his concern is not that she wear a 2 piece now...or this summer as the case may be - but that she stay away from them in years to come.
My response is always - I wouldn't stress about what she wears while we are still able to dress her, but when she brings the Victoria's secret catalogue (because they send about 100 of them a month) to daddy to show him the "bathing suits" that she wants for that particular summer...then he can worry and nix that.
We won't tell that these same sorts of "bathing suits" are the ones he couldn't wait to see me in (well not now of course but in my pre-baby days)
I guess things a just a little different when you have a daughter that you have to keep away from guys like you.
