Damn these baby catalogs I am getting! Now I must have these for Bella.

1. Do it now before she develops her own style and won't wear what Mom buys her anymore

:bounce:

[Shell Beau]

2. I know! I cringe at the thought of her wanting to wear all of those

cartoony clothes. I am such the fashionista! :rofl:

[HopeHoops]

3. I trust the peace signs are "absorbent quilted padding".

[Shell Beau]

5. I don't know and don't care because they are SO FREAKIN cute!

Expensive though! $60. But I think she needs them! :rofl:

[HopeHoops]

7. Oh dear - at that age, that $60 will equal $10 / time worn if you are lucky!

I'll give you that they are cute, but 20 minutes with a needle and thread can turn a $4 pair of sweat pants into the same thing.

[Shell Beau]

8. Yeah I know. It is hard to justify that much money for some little pants.

I have a feeling that the logical side of my brain will fail, and I will buy them anyway. Really it depends on what other catalogs come in. These baby clothes are the devil.

[HopeHoops]

10. Frankly, if you have a "gently used" store, go check it out.

The selection is unbelievable and you have it in your hands before buying - and pants like that would be about $3.00 at the ones around here. Most of it looks like they've never been used. I've taken things in for them to buy and they've been rejected for what I consider minor reasons. Most of those stores have very high quality standards.

Of course, my girls are all older now (8th, 10th, 12th) - they like the thrift stores because they can find decent clothes in different styles that aren't "slut wear", as they call it.

[Shell Beau]

15. I have looked around at some of those type stores around here.

I always seem to be late. All of the cute stuff has been picked through by the time I show up.

4. Those are so cute!

I like the little baby bloomers. Girls are so fun to dress too. Catalogs can be subtle in how they tempt you, they are really tricky that way.

[Shell Beau]

6. And they come out of the woodworks. I am getting catalogs galore.

And I am a sucker for cute girl clothes. If she is this $$$ now, I can't imagine the teen years.

[siligut]

14. Once you start buying, they sell your name to other companies or give your name to sister companies.

I used to get 5 at a time, but then I signed up to Catalog Choice, now I rarely get any. Here is a link, just in case you want to use it, buying for little girls can be so much fun! http://www.catalogchoice.org/ I order online now if I want something.

16. I haven't ordered anything out of a catalog before.

I did order some stuff online though, and it may work the same. Lucky Brand has some baby clothes, and I just had to get her some jeans that matched mom's!

9. You can get a baby from a catalog?

That's f'd up.

[Shell Beau]

11. Cute babies too! I mean look at those little girls.

They aren't too pricey either. You should check it out. No background check or anything.

12. Girls clothes are so cute!

I've got a baby boy and though he's got some super cute clothes, his dad insists that he wears little sweat pants, sweaters, onsies, and T-shirts. Nothing too fru fru or trendy.

I can't wait until warmer weather do he can get a cute little swim suit and some cute t-shirts and shorts. Right now, He's a winter baby and is all bundled up in layers of sleepers, socks, mittens, hats and fleecy bunting bags and all covered in blankets!

Your little one is such a darling! :)

[Shell Beau]

17. I have already got Bella a bathing suit. It is sooo cute.

I can't wait for summer either.

[Maine-ah]

13. Hey, Shell!

The clothes drive me nuts too! Especially Hanna Andersson's.
