Like mother, like daughter?

Nadia figured out how to take her pants off before she took a nap today. I have no idea how she figured this out. The pants are 9 months, she's just at 10 months in age but still fits into them. In fact, the pants are a little long so they hang past her ankles. Therese put her down for a nap while I was getting work done. Then Therese and I decided to put in a movie and keep working on our projects. After an hour, I went to check on her and she was soundly sleeping. I thought, "She's in a really uncomfortable position but it's just so darn cute! I got Therese's attention to come check out how crazy she was positioned in the crib.

Therese: Why are your baby's pants off?
Me: What do you mean?
Therese: Did you take her pants off?
Me: No. Did you?
Therese: No. Ummm, I think your daughter took her pants off while she was sleeping.
Me: No way! I just wanted you to look at how crazy she looked! She actually did that?
Therese: Yes. What are you teaching your kid?!?

I'm not saying I taught Nadia how to strip. I haven't even put the idea in her head! She must have discovered some way to pull at the edges of her hem while her feet were in the air... Or maybe she laid on her back and she actually lifted her butt in the air and took them off! The truth is, once she got them off, they most likely became a toy and turned into a kite in the air.

I'm thinking she got them off to admire them. I know that sounds crazy, or way ahead of her age, but this girl likes clothes. When I fold laundry she sits right there with me and plays in the pile of clean clothes. When she finds a stack of clean clothes on the floor after a late night of folding she always takes each piece off the stack to see it. She loves different textures right now, especially furry or extra-soft clothing and books. I have seen her hold on to a pretty sock like it's a toy and admire the skirt of her dress while she's wearing it. I am hoping this is not a sign of a future addiction...
