Baby Boy Blues

I just got back from a crazy shopping spree in the States:
  • 3 days
  • 13 women
  • 14 hours of highway driving
  • 1 Christmas store the size of 5 football fields
  • 1 shopping mall with 142 stores
  • 11 hours of straight shopping in one day
  • $250 later.......

So, it was exhausting, exhilarating, and enjoyable all at the same time. However, it really demonstrated the complete lack of imagination there is being used when it comes to boys clothing. Looking at and buying it is going to become a very important part of my life in a few months and so I thought I would start while engaged in this shopping extravaganza.......I bought 1 outfit. That is all I could find that I thought was fun enough to put my baby boy in. On the other hand, looking at girls clothes is amazing! They have dresses, sandals, skirts, skorts, shorts, t-shirts, purses, hats, and even tutus. Boys basically have shirts and pants, sometimes the odd sweater that is cute. Really, the people dreaming up this stuff have to become more creative when designing boys clothes because that is all they have to work with.

Anyways, that's my rant on that!

Your "baby boy". I like the sound of that.

I also find the more pregnant you get, the more protective I'm becomming of you. Weird, huh? Like I worried about you when you were away.

As for the baby clothes, we need to get you some of THESE
