Geek Chic


Hey hey! We haven't talked in a while. I've missed you. We've been on our holibobs - Check out Jack's tan. He doesn't take after his Daddy or I in that department. We both have Irish skin that won't tan for toffee.

I wanted to show off Jack's new sneakers. They are so class! As regular readers know, we're a family of Converse converts. I had been on the lookout for a pair of white toddler Converse in the next size up, when I came across these Adidas Neo High Tops. What a great alternative, and they are so very 80's. Can't you just imagine him hanging out at the diner in an ep of Saved by the Bell? As you can see, they are already a bit dirty from a trip to the park yesterday, but I happen to think white trainers always look better when they have been worn in. Jack is also wearing a t-shirt and skinny jeans from Baby Zara.

Below is the face Jack makes when you ask him to give you a "cheesy grin". He's such a character. And what a lot of teeth he's getting now. Every day we play 'spot the new molar'!

  31. Love the sneakers ! That is the style I try to get for my grandsons, they have wide feet and those shoes seem to be wider.

    I have a sunshine award waiting for you, you can get all of the details from my blog..

    1. That's interesting- I think they are wider. Also, as much as I love Converse, the laces can be a bit of a pain when quick removal is required. These are elasticated and are great for slipping off at naptime (especially when the wee man falls asleep in the car and shoes are awkward to remove without waking him) etc. Also, they have removal orthopedic insoles. That sounds impressive to me.
