Dress is an Indonesian batik number, bought by my mom. Shoes are U.S. crocs (probably made elsewhere though?), bought by Denise’s mom and accented with hand-tied bows. Model is half Chinese and half Caucasian. The epitome of Asian fusion?

Sofia in Indonesian dress, new shoes
The first in a long line of future “Sofia clothes” posts. These won’t be all that exciting except for the family, but Sofia is always getting nice dresses and such from family members, and I don’t always remember to document her wearing them. Maybe having a whole post series dedicated to this topic will help me remember.
This dress was given to her by a “2nd cousin” (Denise says so; I can’t figure these things out myself) while we were in Indonesia last year. For clarity’s sake the giver was my mother’s brother’s daughter, which in my mind for Sofia should be at the level of aunt instead of cousin–2nd aunt? The English language’s familial relationship taxonomy is so jacked up. Anyway, this isn’t a real Indonesian dress like some of the upcoming posts in this series, but it is from Indonesia at least so it’ll do. I think it’s actually made by Gymboree.
She’s also wearing new shoes that Denise bought for her yesterday. She’s a size 8 already, which is the largest toddler shoe size. Next up: children’s shoe sizes. Wasn’t she a much shorter, chunkier girl just a few months ago? What happened?
