It fits!

When Emily was 2.5 and Jared was six months old, a friend of mine, who was currently living in China, came home to visit her parents. I took the kids over to see her and was shocked to discover she'd brought gifts back for us. Emily was given a beautiful red "China dress" (as Emily calls it!) and Jared was given a blue outfit (which fit Emily at the time it was gifted! My friend wanted them to have room to grow.)

The red dress was placed in a safe spot until the time it actually fit Emily, and Emily is quite pleased to finally get to wear it! She wore it Monday for the Chinese New Year, and I bought the hair sticks for her hair at Claire's the day before. Isn't she cute?!? I'm wishing I'd taken her picture without the sweater on...
