small style -- steppin' out!

i'm linking up with mama loves papa today because i had to show you choi boy's crazy get up.

while at retreat, cb was reluctant to nap...i'm certain it was because he felt like he was missing out on all the fun that was surely happening outside our room. :) so, when he awoke from his naps, he was up and ready to go greet his adoring fans that surely missed him while he was asleep. :)

on one particular afternoon, choi boy decided to add some flair to his outfit before steppin' out post-nap. check out his style:

aside from the basic shirt, shorts and shoes, everything else was cb's choice. a backpack stuffed with precious items (i.e. bubbles, a mini magna doodle, etc), a pair of grownup sunglasses, and appa's watch. on his ankle, no less.

my friend saw us asked why cb was wearing a watch on his ankle, and i told him cb asked to wear it there. that he was starting a new trend. my friend responded, "the i'm-wearing-an-ankle-monitor-because-i'm-on-house-arrest trend?" why, yes. that's exactly the look we cb was going for. how did you know? (oh, dear...this is NOT a forshadowing of cb's future. it is NOT.)

cb later traded in the big shades for his more appropriately sized ones and added his fish water toy to complete his look.

  5. Oh, the watch on the ankle cracks me up! And seriously, you plan to let your child dress themselves one day?!? I'm planning on picking Spence's clothing until I turn him over to his future wife/partner. :-)

  9. D has those same dollar-bin sunglasses, but CB definitely wears them with a tad more flair (although I kind of like the blue ones on him -- they match the shoes). Maybe we can host a "Who wore it better?" post someday? Trendsetter with the watch -- oh, yeah.

  11. I do love CB's trend setting style! I'll be on the lookout for the ankle watches this fall. And I'm with Christine, I'll be dressing Maddyx until I marry him off!
