Another search

Remember when I did a post whining about the disappearance of maternity clothes in almost every store?  I'm pretty sure those same great fetchers are also removing all baby boy clothes from the stores.  Seriously.  After having gone to Park City, the University Mall in Orem, and Walmart in search of some new clothes for my upcoming bundle of joy, I have a total of 3 newborn sized sleepers and 2 packs of newborn sized onesies.  I just want to find something to put my baby in for his first few months until he fits into the 0-3 month clothes, which seem to be the size of choice at Walmart (for the 3 outfits and/or sleepers they actually carry).  I have all three of those outfits.  Don't get me wrong.  There are PLENTY of baby clothes at the store.  It's just that they are all pink and flowery and super duper cute.  I happen to know 6 women (including myself) that are expecting baby boys in the next few months.  So it's not like there's a shortage of boys around.  They still need clothing, and I'm certainly not putting my little guy in a pink sleeper.  Is there anyone out there that has found a secret stash of baby boy sleepers I can buy?  I swear 3 years ago there were plenty of baby boy clothes.  So they have to have gone somewhere.  They are probably in the same place as all those maternity clothes that have vanished.

I was just at Carters on Riverdale last week, and they had a whole bunch! Oh and they are having a sweet sale right now too! :) The other place that may have some is Kohl's. Probably not the cheapest of places to go, but they may have some.

I don't know what it's like in Utah, but here in Texas Old Navy has both maternity clothes and a ton of baby boy clothes (granted, their girl section is quite a bit larger). I have gotten most of my little guy's clothes there because their clearance prices are fantastic. I also found a lot of NB size clothes at Super Target. It is a great place to buy the 3-pack Gerber sleep'n plays, too.

Kim, I will be visiting Target tomorrow morning. They usually pull through in the baby clothes department. Our Old Navy pulled all their maternity clothes, and seems to think babies start needing clothes at about 6 months old. Weird. The Gerber sleepers are what I'm hunting down, so fingers crossed that our Target has some in stock. :)
