"My Princess Boy" and "What Would You Do"...

I have a little girl (two actually) that are 1/2 princess, 1/2 tomboy. My 3 y/o has an iron man mask, pirate costumes, police costumes, as well as princess and fairy costumes. I have no issue with her playing with trucks or trains or cars. I seriously cannot understand why it's so "unheard" of to have boys play house or barbies. How many of you moms would be weirded out if your boy would be intersested in this kind of play? I have no boys yet, but my hubby agrees with me.

She does not see that unlike some of her cousins/friends she has her own room, nice furniture, allowance, and much more. She has been...

The Princess and the Frog and My 5 Year Old

I was hoping to take my daughter to see "The Princess and the Frog" for her 5th birthday next week. Has anyone seen it? It seems as if it may be too scary for a 5 year old. My daughter loves anything princess, she also enjoys cooking, so I think the movie would be something she would really like. However, the voodoo magic sequences seem as if the could be scary depending on their intensity. My daughter has seen Up, the Tale of Desperoux, Ice Age 3 and Night at the Museum in the theater. I would like to hear from any moms who have taken...

Too Much Princess?

My parents watch my 2 year old two days a week and are great with her. They have more than just a occasional grandparent role in her life and have a big influence on her. No offense to anyone, but my husband and I don't like princess and all things girly for her. She certainly wears pink and has dolls, but we also expose her to Curious George, Elmo, sports etc. We just don't love princess as a role model. My parents are over the top on all things princess, dance, frilly, etc and it is starting to annoy us. She came home with 2 princess...
