Little Bo Peep

I love this bonnet and jacket my talented Grandmother knitted for Julia. Doesn't she look like she belongs in a nursery rhyme? These days they don't really make baby clothes that look like clothes for babies. Don't get me wrong - there are darling clothes out there. (I just bought the cutest tankini for Julia - bring on the sun!) But when Julia wears this outfit she looks like a baby doll. And there is something indescribably sweet about that.

I have the same little jacket and bonnet Grandmother made for Jefferson, but he was too big for it. So I am happy as can be to put my Janie (Janey?) in it! How should I spell that???? Anyway, she's way cute.

Just wait until she is 4 or 5. My mother-in-law doesn't like buying clothes for my 5 year-old niece because she says that they are like teenager clothes. There aren't any cute little girl outfits in the stores anymore.
