Tonight I spent 10 minutes in the boys' section of Kohl's trying to find the right size and right style of boys' underwear. Conner's mom usually buys that stuff but I wanted to get him pants and Chris said he needed underwear.
So, there I was making sure I got size SEVEN and making sure I got the BRIEFS ... not boxer briefs, which Kohl's seemed to have in spades. Who knew my seven year old stepson was picky about his underwear?
It was a stepmom milestone!

Ha. I bought two different packages because I wasn't sure! One package is camouflage. I thought those were cool and so did Conner when I showed them to him. The other package contained plain ol' tightie whities, just like his Dad wears. Snooze. But....he seemed cool with them.
He just came in trying on the new pants I got him and he digs them. Stepmom Katie did well today!
You get a gold star!
Thanks for the tip on "characters", Becky. I will have to file that away.
