She's Got...Personality?

Additional evidence gathered during a visit to Costco which supports the post from January 5th.

Me, smiling at the sweet little princess.
Her: Don't LOOK at me!
Me: Oh my, I'm sorry. Why not?
Her: Don't TALK to me, either! I don't want to talk.

Not a Baby Anymore

Me: Picking her up and holding her like a baby when she's nearly 4.
Her: Don't hold me like this! I'm not a baby anymore!
Me: I know. You were a lot nicer when you were a baby.
Her: (after I'd set her free and she's stomping up the stairs)...I am going to be who I am right now! Hmpf!

The Fashionista

How did I know she dressed herself this morning, you ask?

The Evidence
1) Silky floral skirt in browns, pinks, and greens
2) Cotton t-shirt in white with purple butterflies
3) Hot pink socks
4) Striped tennis shoes

It's a good look if you can get it!
