<p>Since she is only three I really haven&#8217;t bought any play makeup or anything but it seems to have found it&#8217;s way into our house <img class="postimg" src="http://www.3kidslater.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/beautiful-emma-150x150.gif" alt="beautiful emma 150x150 Our Daugher the Little Princess....."  title="Our Daugher the Little Princess....." />anyway through gifts and friends and during our last trip to the big city my darling husband got talked into buying some &#8220;Princess Makeup&#8221; by our daughter who has him firmly wrapped around her little finger.  There was &#8220;lipstick&#8221; and &#8220;eye shadow&#8221; and hair clips, she thought it was the best and daddy was happy because it was on clearance! (he just loves a deal!)</p>
<p>She had the best time that day putting on her new makeup and making everyone look beautiful.  She even got the boys involved!! They were happy to oblige&#8230;&#8230;She was having a grand ol&#8217; time!<br />
<img class="postimg" src="http://www.3kidslater.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/wayne-and-emma-makeup-150x150.gif" alt="wayne and emma makeup 150x150 Our Daugher the Little Princess....."  title="Our Daugher the Little Princess....." /><br />
She is really pretty reasonable when I say, &#8220;OK, we can put some on now but mommy will keep it in a special place.&#8221;  However, one day the boys I sit for and she were playing and they found the make-up.  I averted disaster by checking on them as they were in the playroom and I noticed it was awfully quiet sure enough the make up was out but fortunately they had just gotten started&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;and I &#8220;put it up&#8221; out of harms way!</p>
<p>Well, if you follow me at all you know that just about everyday I walk the family dog, I had just returned from my walk and my husband says to me, &#8220;Honey, check out the camera&#8221;&#8230;..thinking huh???? I did and thought OMG, what happened to my baby????  He then said to her to come up stairs and show mommy&#8230;&#8230;she had found the makeup and was quietly applying it all over herself while daddy was upstairs making dinner none the wiser! <img class="postimg" src="http://www.3kidslater.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/makeup1-150x150.gif" alt="makeup1 150x150 Our Daugher the Little Princess....."  title="Our Daugher the Little Princess....." /> He had tried to wash it off&#8230;.but it needed more than soap and water&#8230;&#8230;</p>
<p>So, I got her in the tub and got the makeup remover out and with a little scrubbing&#8230;&#8230;.she was squeaky clean and her beautiful self after a nice bath&#8230;&#8230;.<br />
Needless to say I have since found a new home for the makeup!</p>
<p>Cheers!<br />
