My Little Tomboy
When I feel like punishing myself, I take my children to Target to check out the toys. There’s nothing more fun for a dad than having your children ask you to buy one toy after another. When that doesn’t work, the kids change their tactics and start telling me what toys they want for Christmas and their birthdays. They don’t really need to tell me. I know them well enough to figure out what they like. But the Little Monkey did surprise me. Take a look at what my youngest daughter wants for Christmas:
My little girl with a Bakugan toy at Target
The little tomboy with a G.I. Joe action figure
Apparently, my little girl is a tomboy. As a dad, I’m amazed at how different my two girls are. My oldest daughter, the Little Princess, is and has always been a girly girl. My youngest daughter, the Little Monkey, plays rough and likes to climb on things. The girls use to be close when they were younger, but now the Little Monkey plays with her older brother more often than she does with her older sister.

How sweet! Hope little Disney is on the mend. Been thinking of your family!

Baby seems to be fine. We’ll know for sure after the tests he has scheduled in the next four weeks.
My 4YO daughter up until recently wanted things that daddy liked… Transformers, GiJOE, SpiderMan, Batman, IronMan, Wolverine.. Now whenever she sees something that is girly on TV, she says she wants that. And when it’s a boy toy, she says that it’s for her brother.
But I still have to buy them the same things because they’ll fight over the other toys.

My son use to like the things I like, but then he went to school. Now he also likes the toys his friends like.
Hmmm I can relate! I remember wanting all the Star Wars toys back in the late 70′s. :)
Hugs,

Who doesn’t want Star Wars toys?
Every kids is different… which is a good thing. Maybe its just a phase she is going through, and will want Barbies next year!
I think she’ll be into more girls stuff once she starts school next year. Right now, her brother is her primary playmate (when she’s not tormenting me).
She’s adorable! It’s sweet that her brother is influencing her. They must be good friends.

It’s a love-hate relationship. One minute they are playing nicely. The next minute they are screaming at each other.
My husband would love if Chloe wanted that stuff. He wants a tom boy. I tell him, “Thee, there. Keep living in denial that you have two girls.” LOL

That’s the nice thing about boys. I don’t love them more than the girls, but I do like to play with their toys.
That’s awesome! She reminds me of myself. My brother, who is now 29, used to have Ghostbuster toys and He-Man toys and Thundercats. When he was old enough to stop playing with them, I did. :)

My daughter was a bit of tomboy too, but now she is all princess. Enjoy this time!
I had to take this down last week because I posted it on the wrong day … so, here it is again … Princess D’s Weekend of Fun: http://tinyurl.com/ydzf5r5
Hey there are a lot of cool toys out there that shouldn’t aoughta belong just to boys ad visa versa.
How’s little Disney?? My daughter made an appt to get her baby vaccinated as soon as I told her and spent about 5 hrs in a line of 5,000 to do it. Plus in 3 weeks they have o go back for a booster Preferable to what your little D had to go through though by far!
Baby seems to be fine. We’ll know more after his tests in the next few weeks.
Very cute!

The Little Monkey and Spiderboy want a billion toys, but the Little Princess only wants felt. That’s right, felt. She’s into arts and crafts.
Awe, what a sweetheart!
