I Went Right!

For 4+ years, I've walked into kids' clothing stores and gone directly to the boys section. I always glanced over at the girls clothes and felt a pang... not to say I don't LOVE how fun it is to shop for boys... all that khaki and navy blue... but I always dreamed of stopping by the little ladies area too.

Today, in our local over-priced-yet-adorable kids' clothing store--where the boys are to the left and girls to the right--I walked in, bee-lined for the boys section...stoppped and exclaimed, "oh my God, I can go right!

And boy did I ever.

I agree! I always loved shopping for Holden but then I got to buy girls' clothes too and it was double the fun! (Beware of the Mini Boden catalog...cutest girls' clothes ever!)
Congrats again!

Been there! Two boys, and then our daughter. Girl clothes are WAY more fun! And, I'm not a shopper-type, but I had lots of fun "going right".

waiting for our next little one who will also wear pink!

Jackie,
I remember that moment after the two boys of finally getting to shop for PINK!!! And, hairbows!!! It was soooo much fun! I'm feeling the need for some "girl moments" since I'm in a house again with only boys now that Erica is off at college. I'll have to live vicariously through you and enjoy every moment of Lucy's homecoming.
Love and blessings,
Teresa
