Hailey and her opinions

Even before she was one, Hailey began showing her spunky personality. For awhile we have called her our little spitfire. As she is approaching two, however, her opinion on things is starting to emerge. Currently, her strongest opinion has to do with the clothes she wears. Earlier this week I picked out a shirt she hadn't worn before to go along with jeans. She started crying when I attempted to put the shirt on. After a struggle, I got her fully dressed, but her crying only escalated. I left her to herself for a few minutes to calm down. When I looked in on her, she had pulled out her laundry basket, thrown half of her dirty clothes all over the room, and had grabbed her favorite shirt, which had been in the laundry basket, and was trying to put it on her head. I was hoping that I would have a few good months with the new baby before I jumped into the terrible two stage with Hailey, however, it looks like it may come earlier with Hailey than it did with Drew.
