She's precious.

Totally agree with you and your fiance but that princess stuff is so prevalent it's going to hard for you all to avoid it completely.  If it's any consolation, the two darling little girls next door go in for all that stuff but are still smart, sweet and well-behaved.  Their parents are conservative and work hard to raise them right but their mom does like to indulge them with all the pink sparkly princessy stuff.  They don't seem to be any the worse for it.

Good luck!

This.  Maybe the aunt recognizes that you're being weirdos and is doing her part to allow the little girl an outlet for her princess urges.  Seriously, lighten up.  She'll be much happier if you encourage HER interests than if you try and force yours on her.

My oldest daughter (4) loves princess stuff and getting her toenails painted.  She also loves catching bugs and driving through mud puddles.  It'll all work out in the end.

And OP there is nothing wrong with this. Your Princess can still be a strong independant female even if she loves Cinderella when she is a kid. Please do not ruin this aspect of her child hood for her by incessant worrying over her play and play interests.

Ballance in everything.
If you forbid the princess stuff (or anything else that is popular with her peers) she will hate you for it and plot for it. Best you can do is not overly encourage the stuff that is a pain .

The OP seems to have thought this out and things will likely work out.
