Moms of boys

Finish this sentence: I wish they made "this" for little boys... or why can't I find "this" for little boys...

 I often get frustrated with shopping for my little boy... everything tends to be "girly" to me... finding an Easter outfit that didn't look like an old man or a newborn baby was difficult. Finding an Easter basket... well lets just say he didn't get a basket just an Easter gift ... I wish there was a better clothing selection for little boys. Or maybe I'm just not shoppping at the right places. Anyone else have these thoughts/feelings???

I agree.  Shopping for clothes is tough.  I'd say 2 or 3 other kids at his daycare all have the same outfits. Lol.  I wish they made an on the toilet trainer that was more suitable for boys without scratching their private area.

I agree there is definitely not much selection. I love baby Gap for him and usually shop when there's sales like 30 or 40% off your purchase that way it's not as expensive. I think the outfits are really cute though.

Yeah I'll have to keep an eye out for the sales at Baby Gap... I did have luck at H&M. Their prices are reasonable and some of their clothes have that "different" factor about them that I like. I feel like for some reason when designers think of boys

when I see something cute at a store for my son, i have to buy it immediately, because a week later it will be gone in his size.

I find with the limited selection of really cute boys stuff, every little boy ends up wearing something similar.

Winter Coats!  I have the hardest time finding a winter coat that is not super boring or just plain ugly.

I feel the exact same way...the two Easter outfits I can pick from were both terrible...I alwasy end up buying him a shortall outfit with polo...and it never seems dressy enough. Little girls can buy something from Target if they want, I have to go to

Now, I have 2 girls so I don't look at the boys stuff as in depth, but I do check it out and buy my nephew stuff.

I buy 90% of my sons clothes from BabyGap or Old Navy. I stick with the basics and almost always find cute stuff for him.

I just wish there was a bigger selection of boy clothes. I think they're all super cute, but the girls' section is always at least double the size.

What I struggle with is all the little boy stuff that is so macho.  I don't want to dress him in anything that says "tough guy" or "little man."  And camo on little boys?  um, fuggedaboutit. I want him to enjoy his innocence and the magi

oh yeah my LO wore a super cute salmon colored polo and little plaid shorts for easter. It wasn't really dressy enough but I waited too long.

I love love love the super hero shirts that old navy has.

Why can't I find more clothing and shoe selections for boys! I have two boys. One is 13 months and the other is 4 years old. I'm finding it harder to find more options for my older son. Particularly hard to find is winter gear. We buy early and buy lots o

Yes, but it has probably saved me a lot of money - especially at Gymboree where I know I would have gone nuts on the girls clothes had he been a girl!

I wish there were more dress up clothes too! We got his Easter outfit at Babies R Us and it

I already buy him more clothes than I can really justify. But finding anything at the local department stores -- since we ban characters, phrases, camo, sports, and monkeys -- is pretty much more trouble than its worth.

I order from Old Navy, Bab
