Alice's La-La

This is Alice's La-La. The term la-la applies to all twirly dresses and nightgowns that Alice likes. Alice always wants to wear either her swimsuit or one of her favorite lalas but the most beloved LaLa of the moment is this pink nightgown. We have to bribe her with offers of treats and promises that she can put it back on after it's washed in order for us to be able to get it off her body. Today the La-La was dirty, so Alice wore her swimsuit.

In case you're wondering where the word 'La-La' came from, here's what we've come up with. Alice has two shows that she watches in the morning while she's trying to get into a good mood for the day. One is 'The Mickey Mouse Clubhouse' and the other is 'The Little Einsteins'.
'The Little Einsteins' are four animated preschool children (with abnormally large heads) and one rocket. Each episode the children use their unique artistic gifts (one sings, one dances, one plays instruments and one conducts) to solve a proble. Every show also features a highlight from a famous piece of music. There is one tune that Alice really likes from 'The New World Symphony' by Antonin Dvorak and she used to sing 'la-la' to the tune of it every time she put on a dress that twirled really well. So, now, every dress that strikes her fancy is a 'la-la'.
