Whether you prefer cutsie little mansuits in baby blue, novelty t-shirts with inane sayings like "precious little angel," or miniature-sized replicas of trendy current fashions, let's face it -- dressing your baby in silly clothing and snapping photos is simply a parent's birthright. Nevermind that many of these clothes are totally impractical and often infuriating (I am reminded of a certain shirt and overalls set that I almost took a pair of scissors-a-la-emergency-room-cut-away to after Archer shat tremendously and was screaming and writhing as I tried to undo a dozen buttons and nearly broke his arms trying to pass them through the stiff fabric), the point remains that we feel compelled to put funny clothes on this small person and imagine that he somehow enjoys them the way we do; perhaps he feels more professional and confident in a button-down shirt and khakis, more sassy in a pair of fireball leg warmers, more whimsical in a hat that looks like a strawberry. Or, we can slap a headband on that bald little head and imagine that he is the next Lebron James.
