Mo' Dowa ... Mo' Dowa!

June 24, 2008
Autumn and I were at Target one day shopping for tennis shoes. I grabbed a pair of cute little Disney Princess shoes ... Autumn pointed at the Dora shoes. I tried both pairs on her.

Mommy: Do you want Dora or Princess?

Autumn: Dowa (pointing at the Dora shoes)

Mommy: Are you sure? (hoping she would change her mind)

Autumn: Yessss. (nodding her head with her final decision)

That was exactly how our Dora obsession started. What began with a pair of shoes has ended up to be 3 DVD's, a nightgown, undies, a pair of training skates, a puzzle and even Dora swim diapers. She chants "mo' Dowa, mo' Dowa" just before an episode ends.

Auti's snack: apples and apple juice.

I was so anti-Dora before I was forced to watch the DVD's (over and over again.) But, I admit ... she's really not that bad. I'd rather Autumn watch something educational over Spongebob anyday!
