When my daughter was little I put her frilly dresses and bows and cute shoes.  But when she turned 4 she hated that stuff.  And she never liked dolls or barbies.  She is a hot wheels girl through and through.  Jeans and t-shirts with long hair.

She is 11 1/2 now and very much the athlete, but she has decided that she does not like her Nascar bedroom anymore and would like something a little more girly, she wears perfume and absolutely loves it and is always asking me how her hair looks.

I think some kids just go through a tom-boy phase.  I did but I outgrew by the time I was 8.  And I think my daughter is outgrowing it now.  She still hangs with the guys on the basketball court, but she hangs with the girls before and after school.
