When visiting my dad recently, I saw this photo of my little sister as a toddler wearing the same type of outfit, except it is a dress instead of onesie shorts. That made me wonder if the print is indeed too feminine!
So, everybody, cast your votes. Can John wear this little cute outfit, or should I put it back in the bin for if God ever blesses us with a daughter?
[EDIT: We need some men to vote! Chris says women aren't going to vote right. (That's just because they're agreeing with me so far!)]
It's not girly... it's just babyish. Not one of our "little man" outfits. You might be glad for it on a really hot day if you are going on an outing.
ReplyDeleteI love it, but I love the sunsuits like this for boys, especially with the embroidery!
ReplyDeleteI vote yes, it is precious for summer in the south! Aunt Holly
Absolutely!! Perfect for a little boy! And he looks precious and handsome!

OK Chris, I would not put it on my boy, do you feel happy now? I still don't think it's girly, but it's definitely not boyish either.
ReplyDeleteand hey, i have a size 4 pink pants suit for a little boy if you want to borrow it for john a little later. :-)
I wasn't so sure until I looked at a larger version of the picture so that the overall pink effect resolved into blue and red with cute little horses. I vote with the ladies: cute as a button and great for hot days.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the votes so far! Yes, this outfit is babyish, I agree. It's interesting, I would put a girl in an outfit like this even at age one, but I probably wouldn't put a boy into it much beyond John's current four months. It's a funny double standard!

ReplyDeleteIt's boyly(the Womick children have come up with that adjective to describe something befitting masculinity.)Don't see a problem here.
