Boys Love Belts

The twins are very into what they wear. Does it match what "Daddy" wears? Does "Daddy" have it... etc...etc... Last summer they became obsessed with wearing belts on their shorts and pants. I blame Michael. They see that he wears a belt to work everyday so of course they want to copy him. Actually it is very sweet when you think about it. Never the less, I found the belts annoying for little boys. They are hard to undo when your son tells you has to use the potty. They are hard for a child to buckle and un-buckle independently. Also they do not really come in a variety of colors or patterns unless you want to spend $30 plus dollars on an accessory that they will grow out of almost immediately.
Fast forward to this past November. The twins needed a new belt for holiday parties and everyday life. I had been looking around and found a little brown faux leather one at Carters (which is a brand I love!) It was a good price and I am sure I used a coupon, then later that night we took the boys to Dicks Sporting Goods to look at basketballs. Well, low and behold I found these: Adidas Youth Baseball Belts. I absolutely love them! The twins were able to pick out their own favorite color (Red for Buddy and Blue for Doc). They are only $6. They are fully adjustable so they will grow with the boys and they are stretchy so in a pinch it is easy to do their business quickly. Now I know they are not Vineyard vines with their super cute preppy patterns but they still add a bit of flare.
All I am saying.... if you are a mom who is looking for a boys belt, give this a try. I am sure your son would love to pick out his favorite color!
