Baby Clothes

Aight, so another thread got me to thinking maybe someone else on here has had this issue.

I'm going to have a daughter very soon... I don't want her to be all pink and glitter and intend to put her on two wheels at as young an age as my wife will allow.

I found all kinds of clothes for baby boys related to mechanics, motorcycles, race cars, etc... but nothing that wasn't obviously for boys.

Anyone have a source for "boyish" girly clothes?

Hey, Congratulations!

I think an ol' Johnny Cash song had a lil different approach...Boy named Sue...heheh...A Girl named Tom !?...just kidding.

I'm sure she won't mind whatever she ends up with.

She won't... it's the wife that's an issue :) If it looks to "boyish" it get's the thumbs down.

Might not be what you're looking for, but

clicky

Yeah, that's about all I've managed to find. All the good stuff isn't wife approved (like team pit crew onesies). I might just have to buy what I want for her and swap clothes when the wife isn't looking... it'll grow on her eventually.

The bottom line is baby clothes are baby clothes.

I stripped my girls the second my wife left me in charge and dressed them in camouflage, motorcycle t-shirts, and other stuff many might consider "boy" stuff.

The bottom line for me was most of the "girly" crap was cumbersome for my kids to play in and if my "boyish" stuff got dirty, ripped, and puked on it wasn't a big deal.

Much easier for little girls to crawl when they are not placing their knees on their dress.

Work the practical side.

Plus - just be a man.

Dress your girl how you want to. Work the gender-role argument. Some strong boyish traits aren't bad for girls.

Boy clothes won't make your little girl a lesbian.

A black Metallica t-shirt on her every now and again won't change who she is.


Have fun with your daughter. It won't be long before you won't have much choice in what she wears.

Enjoy it while you can.

something like that? shameless plug for my wife's little enterprise. she's got a little sewing/embroidery thing happening. can do pretty much what ever you want. i'm sure she could sort international post. email her or msg on facebook ("Beesirk")

tshirthell.com r cafepress.com has some pretty good stuff. Fleet farm has pink camo.

Yeah, pink camo might be as close as I'm going to get wife approval for.
