Dutch-Style

The weather is not warming up anytime soon here in the Netherlands, so I've had to do some shopping. Rachel's pants are starting to look like she's waiting for a flood! :) I didn't want to spend a lot of money, since I'm hoping the weather will be warmer by June. I figured I would just buy a pair or two of jeans to get her by. So, after searching around quite a bit, I finally found a pair that wasn't too expensive and had an adjustable waist. The only thing about the pair of jeans is they are so baggy! Rachel looks like a little gangster. She could probably fit both of her legs in one pant hole. The picture doesn't really do it justice, but here's Rachel sporting her first pair of Dutch jeans:It took forever to get a picture of her. Finally I just put her on top of our bed and she was somewhat cooperative! As I was looking for jeans I did find a cute pair with slimmer legs, but they were by Esprit. So, they cost around 30 euros ($45). I don't even spend that much money on a pair of jeans for myself, let alone my toddler who is going to grow out of them in 6 months or less! :)

Rachel makes a cute little thug. Yeah, I am all about good deals on clothes for them. Besides the fact they grow out of them, they aren't the cleanest little people around.

Does she have a favorite color in clothes. Those jeans make her look so grown up.
