A few days ago I asked Julia if I could take her picture. She agreed and I asked her to pose for me. This is what I got.

Posing for Mommy

I had asked her to smile and she said, “No, Mom. I look like this.”

Then, she told me to wait while she ran and grabbed her stuffed bunny and posed. Again, I asked her to smile, but she replied with “I look like this.” So, I took the picture.

Striking another pose

I think this may be proof that I’ve been watching a little too much of America’s Next Top Model. What can I say? It’s an addiction. Some people slip outside to get a puff of a cigarette. Others hide in the pantry while they snarf down a package of Oreo cookies. I flip on the television and watch America’s Next Top Model.

Oh, and if you didn’t click on the linked-up text up there, you should. It will take you to a great post on my husband’s brand new blog. You should check it out. He’s brilliant and funny and the new blog you should be reading.

(A little sidenote here: if you go to his blog and you happen to notice the profile picture, please ignore that fact that my boobs look absolutely gargantuan and I look like I’m drunk. I wish I could say I was, but I’m not. And while you may think I’m defeating the purpose of getting you to actually ignore the picture, I guess I just want to be sure that you know that I know that I look look less than my best and completely overwhelmed by a massive amount of boobage.)

    Looks like you have a budding little model on your hand :D

    She’s absolutely adorable, and she certainly knows herself it sounds like.

    I love how she said, “No mommy, I look like this.” That is too damn cute!

    “No, Mom. I look like this.”

    That is hilarious; she is going for journalistic integrity here, Leslie! Don’t try to manipulate the situation with your disingenuous poses!

    Every time I see photos of her, she reminds me of someone; an actress, maybe? I can’t put my finger on it. She’s a beautiful child.

    She is beautiful just the way she is.

    That’s nice. A girl that knows who she is and is fine with it. Can’t really go wrong with that.
