Two Princes

With the advent of William and Kate's nuptials I thought I'd indulge my inner anglophile with some pics of Harry and Wills as littles. I don't know if it's just the 80s styles, or if they actually look like normal kids in these photos. You know, just palace dwelling, pony-riding normal kids. But they also look like they stepped out of a storybook with their old-fashioned rompers and Christopher Robin-esque mary janes.

For those of you with a little prince of your own, we have a pair of red Osh Kosh overalls in store that could be the very ones that Harry is wearing below.









I had to include this picture of Diana on a visit to Japan. Moms, can we all start putting knee-socks on our little boys again? Thanks.
