Le Chic

Loving putting Spike in old Max outfits.  I imagine that the payoff is even greater considering what a pain it was to store the clothes for five years.  Today with all the rainy weather I decided to break out a cooler outfit of Max's.  I have no idea where it was purchased, I think it might have been a hand me down from Lu, (although I have a hard time imagining Liesl wearing it.)  I love this outfit cause it looks so snooty.  Something about the mock turtleneck and the french, (I think it is french,) makes it look like the baby wearing it is looking down on everyone else in a pseudo-intellectual way.  All morning long I have been narrating Spike actions and responses in a really bad french accent.  Such as, "I am enjoying this bottle but am going to spit it up on you inferior fat American."   (Do you see what I mean when I post that I have been too lonely lately.  Someone needs to call or stop by so that I stop narrating my kids.)  The outfit also looks a little bit like the outfit that Marlon Brando wore in the Superman movies.  The funny thing is that despite the fairly negative connections, the outfit is still a winner cause it is a super snuggly and soft material.  So when my little Frenchman starts getting all worked up I just squeeze him a little more til he surrenders, (very French of him.)
