Frustrated

So this year I have had to purchase more clothing for both of the boys. Corey has completely outgrown all of the clothes from last year that I was hoping he might fit into...he's just getting too tall. And Bradley was born at a completely different time of year than Corey, so all the outfits are off! I have been shopping around for some things for them, and unfortunatley if you don't have a girl most stores feel that you shouldn't have cute clothing...well unless you want to spend an arm and a leg.

I was walking around Meijer trying to find a couple shirts for Corey and started noticing...look at all the racks of girly clothing, with the bright lights shining on them. Then I turn to the boys clothing, and literally there is half the amount of clothing, and it's much darker. I was so depressed not only by the lack of options, but by the fact that there just wasn't as much detail and attention given to the boys stuff. I just don't get it!

On the flip side...it is a really good thing I don't have a girl...she would have way more clothing than she could ever wear. Maybe it's a sign...

Let me know what size he is wearing (or will be wearing this winter) and I'll look for cute clothing that is on sale. I have lots of coupons to Buy Buy Baby (kind of like Babies R Us, but only on the east coast) - I'll go look there!
Coming from a mom of a girl...good thing you don't have one..their closet looks the same as the stores do. Morgan has a crap load and Colin has hardly anything..haha

What size is he in? Maybe Colin has stuff he could wear? Not sure though. He is probably taller than Colin. Well, let me know and I will look out here too.

Bradley is currently in 6-9 month stuff (he's just so long!), and Corey is wearing 4T for lenght, but it has to have an adjustable waist because he's so stinking skinny. Oh children!
I have stuff for Corey. Colin is in a 5t and 4 little boys, so I was just about ready to get rid of it. I will bag it up and bring it along with me. If you don't like it I will just give it to goodwill. No problem. It is mainly Carter's and Old Navy. Colin is super skinny too so I like the adjustable waist! I will be doing some shopping this week and will look for some stuff for Bradley. Plus, this gives me an even bigger excuse to come see the kids..and I guess you too..haha

I will be home Dec 21-Jan 3 so we will figure out a time!
