I am amazed at the number of mature or inappropriate clothes out there for toddlers. I am not looking forward to when she goes shopping, cares what she wears and is influenced by friends. Now it is still easy to dress the kids how I want. I hear you. I am amazed at the number of mature or inappropriate clothes out there for toddlers.

I know what you mean though, having shopped for Munchkin and a few girls here and there. I also have a friend whose little girl is in love with the color green. (In fact, at the library, she insists on sitting in the green chairs. Only.) Anyway, she has a rough time finding enough green because everything is pink.

I'll have to check out some stores when we go back to Pittsburgh next month. I can normally find "something" but I'd really just like a bigger selection. Suz; Interesting.

That being said I have a lot to say about the girls side. Have you noticed all the "hoochie" clothes out there for little girls. Last summer it was either bermuda shorts or almost daisy dukes. Everything is pink which is OK, but you need some variety. My daughter really loves green and blue and try finding that on the girls side. She also loves the movie Cars, Spongebob, and some other boyish things. Cant find that in the girls side either. Only princesses, etc. It is hard to find plain t-shirts for girls too. I have to agree with the Walmart, Target, Old Navy stores for that. BTW, your sons are super cute! I love the little suit.

Very basic shorts pattern. And then you have to buy the fabric.
