We have just over three weeks to find the perfect baby blessing (christening) outfit. Henry’s big day is April 25th and we are looking for something that is perfect for a little boy and that can be handed down to his son should he one day choose to do so.
The CPA said we will absolutely not, under any circumstances, get something like this:

I can kind-of see where he’s coming from. I think it’s beautiful, but it would probably take a really secure baby to be able to pull it off.
I suggested one of the traditional jumpers as a possibility, but that, too, was quickly vetoed.

We finally decided that we both liked either a suit, such as this one,

this blue and white sweater with shirt and pants,

or this knicker suit complete with bowtie and vest.

(the vintage look includes suspenders instead of a vest.)
All three are adorable and would look great on Henry. We are open to a black and white suit since we don’t have to have a white outfit, but we just can’t decide.
That’s why I need your help. Keeping in mind that lots and lots of pictures will be taken for posterity’s sake, not to mention lots of family will be in attendance too, which outfit would you choose?
And I’m also curious as to what kind of blessing or christening outfit did you choose for your little one?
