Our 8-months-old-celebration shopping trip lasted nearly six hours yesterday, but Lily was a great sport! She enjoys being out in public, meeting people and seeing new things. I am so happy that she is comfortable in social situations because I feel like I can take her anywhere with me!
Currently, if I want her opinion on something I want to purchase for her, I hold two options in front of her and the item that she grabs is the one she "picked". I repeat the process, but switch the position of the items to see if she picks the same one. I know its silly, but it is very important to me that Lily learns how to make decisions for herself. This is just my small way of helping her build that skill.
But I must say, I do look forward to shopping together when she is older and can voice her opinion. Its going to be so much fun!
