Time for another Gymboree thread!

[Natale]

:boobies:


Sneak peek of the new lines: http://junkjungle.com/010807_m.html


So, what is everyone getting with their Gymbucks? I'm going Wednesday to put things on hold.

[Amy]

That piggie hat!!! :love:

[Natale]

The polka dot bathing suits!

[Amy]

I'm planning on getting stuff from the Peruvian Doll line with my GBs.

[Natale]

The pig layette stuff is way cute.

[Natale]

I'm planning on getting stuff from the Peruvian Doll line with my GBs.


Me too - I hope they still have some.

:word: I've had my cart filled for two weeks. :indiff:

[Danielle]

Joey needs these!!! This line of stuff is really cute, I wish I could go on a shopping spree!

Somebody said these look like sperm and eggs:

[Amy]

LmAO! I didn't see those. Alex would die!

This dress is GREAT!

http://farm1.static.flickr.com/145/351087997_7190686258_m.jpg

It would be adorable over a pair of jeans after it was too short for a dress.

[Dar]

I like this

/pretending I have Gymbucks

[Natale]

:word: I've had my cart filled for two weeks. :indiff:


Oh, ordering online are you? I might actually call a few stores and see if anyone doesn't laugh when I ask for PD and then decide whether to order online or shop in the store.

[Danielle]

Sophia would love that dress!
http://farm1.static.flickr.com/123/351088094_72f3f533ea_m.jpg
I like this one. The other day she threw a fit because i would not let her wear a dress.

[Sonny]

Max already has all of those boy's clothes. Oh, wait, he has other Gymboree boy clothes that LOOK.JUST.LIKE.THAT. :mad:

They need a new creative mind working on the boy's lines.

[Amy]

Oh, ordering online are you? I might actually call a few stores and see if anyone doesn't laugh when I ask for PD and then decide whether to order online or shop in the store.

Ordering online is just easier for me...less drama. :laugh: I may change my mind.

[Lisa]

Those little turtle overalls. :love:

[Natale]

:indiff:

http://farm1.static.flickr.com/150/351093318_8d6e66e30a_m.jpg

Um, yeah, 1978 just called and said they just got some new Dr. Scholl's sandals and they want their terry cloth romper back.

[Amy]

I LOVE this style...

http://farm1.static.flickr.com/148/351088344_b6e51a6723_m.jpg

[Amy]

Um, yeah, 1978 just called and said they just got some new Dr. Scholl's sandals and they want their terry cloth romper back.

:laugh: It might be cute on, but using the toilet would be an issue. I'd have a hard time tying those straps...a six year old??? I don't think so.

[Natale]

Max already has all of those boy's clothes. Oh, wait, he has other Gymboree boy clothes that LOOK.JUST.LIKE.THAT. :mad:

It's not as much fun to dress little boys, but I was just thinking "how come the boys got some great basics (jeans, cargo shorts) and we didn't?."

[Lisa]

The boys stuff really didn't wow me either. Just the turtles. :D

Those cows? Nah.

[Natale]

:laugh: It might be cute on, but using the toilet would be an issue. I'd have a hard time tying those straps...a six year old??? I don't think so.

Same as overalls, you just slip them off your shoulders and GO.

[Amy]

Nat, you're my hero. :laugh:

[Amy]

They are still ugly as hell. :laugh:

[Natale]

I LOVE this style...

http://farm1.static.flickr.com/148/351088344_b6e51a6723_m.jpg

I wasn't crazy about that one. The cut out aprony thing.

[Natale]

Nat, you're my hero. :laugh:


It's better than cleaning up tinkle. :dunno:

But yeah. Ugly. Next! :D

[Amy]

I wasn't crazy about that one. The cut out aprony thing.

:scratch: When I saw it, it was just a pinafore...I guess it is a little strange.

[Natale]

I like this, but I think it's baby Girl. Dar needs to buy it.

http://farm1.static.flickr.com/124/351094120_1eb99bbf7c_m.jpg

[Lisa]

:flasher:

[Amy]

Summer is so.far.away. I'm having a hard time feeling the summer line. :laugh:

[Natale]

:scratch: When I saw it, it was just a pinafore...I guess it is a little strange.

Yeah, it's actually little strips that hang from the waist. :scratch:

[Natale]

That's okay, by the time you need it, it will be deeply discounted. :right:

[Amy]

That's okay, by the time you need it, it will be deeply discounted. :right:

:right: That's what I'm hoping for.

[Amy]

I'm getting one meeeelllion pairs of capris. :D

[Natale]

Oh, maybe this is the kid girl version of that outfit. Looks like it would be easier to iron, too:

http://farm1.static.flickr.com/134/351093046_766596be78_m.jpg

[Amy]

That's cute. I LOVE that style of shirt.

[Sonny]

The boys stuff really didn't wow me either. Just the turtles. :D

Those cows? Nah.

The baby clothes are always cute. But for Max's age? Seriously I saw that shirt with the aligators (or were they lizards?) that kind of wrap around the side, and thought WTH, Max has that shirt. Oh, wait, no his only has one aligator. :jack:

[Sonny]

AND, he has that swimsuit they paired the shirt with only his has fish (exact same colors though) and he also has the hat with it. Only his is just navy blue, no lizard on it. /bitter

[Natale]

(((((((((((((boys' moms)))))))))))))))

[Sonny]

:D


I did get to dress Anna in Gymboree, once upon a time.

[Lizz]

I love the infant boys turtle stuff!!!!!

[Amy]

The baby clothes are always cute. But for Max's age? Seriously I saw that shirt with the aligators (or were they lizards?) that kind of wrap around the side, and thought WTH, Max has that shirt. Oh, wait, no his only has one aligator. :jack:

Fashion is important to girls. /Maggie

[Natale]

But wait, Sonny, there's another line with Sports. I'll bet he doesn't have clothes with a sports motif. You can load up on that line!

:run:

[Amy]

The boy styles are pretty much the same ones they had when my boys were little.

[Michele]

Max already has all of those boy's clothes. Oh, wait, he has other Gymboree boy clothes that LOOK.JUST.LIKE.THAT. :mad:

They need a new creative mind working on the boy's lines.

I agree.

Although, they're way too dorky for an 8 year old.

[Michele]

But wait, Sonny, there's another line with Sports. I'll bet he doesn't have clothes with a sports motif. You can load up on that line!

:run:

Har!

[Sonny]

But wait, Sonny, there's another line with Sports. I'll bet he doesn't have clothes with a sports motif. You can load up on that line!

:run:


:indiff:

[Lisa]

I am dreading my sister's hand me downs because everything they have is sports. :indiff:

[Mandy]

Lisa, they did a turtle line last year like that. I have a onesie from that line in size 12-18 months that you are welcome to.

I have $75 in gymbucks. *excited* He needs summer shirts more than anything. I'm thinking his shorts from last year will still fit. And if that birthday boy shirt comes in his size it is on like donkey kong.

[Natale]

There was a turtle line in layette last year? Are you sure you're not thinking of Puddle Jumping, with the frogs, aka the cutest layette line ever?

[Mandy]

Nope, it has turtles. It is white with two turtles on it and the neck and legs have yellow.

[Mandy]

From Bloop, bloop, bloop:

[Amy]

That's cute!

[Natale]

From Bloop, bloop, bloop:

http://www.gymbohaven.com/bloopu46.jpg

Oh, he is cute! I don't pay enough attention to layette anymore. I think the girls' line had goldfish and it was sweet.

[Rebecca]

The pig layette stuff is way cute.
:word: I like the cow stuff, too. :D

[Karen]

[Angie]

This stuff is adorable!

I loved shopping with the girls in Tampa at Gymboree. :love:

[Karen]

Although Freya does own some Gymboree stuff (thanks to a certain someone), I still haven't actually started this whole gymbucks game.

[Dar]

K, just remember, when she starts crawling, you're not going to want to have too many dresses. We made that mistake.

[Karen]

The dresses are for church and trips to grandmas' house!

Your advice on crawling/dresses is exactly why I have almost none of SIL's clothes for that age--she got all dresses (and regretted it).

[Karen]

I like the carter's onesie's that have the little skirt thing on the front. If they hang down too far while she's crawling, I figure I can stitch them together more so they don't interfere. right?

[Dar]

Yeah, they aren't too bad for crawling. But the full dresses are the problem.

Is she set for 12 mo. clothes right now? I can do more digging to see what I have. I might have sent you what I had, because Alison ruined alot of the pants she had with crawling. However, I can look. I'm going to be in the attic, anyways, putting away Christmas stuff this week.

BB was at the crawling age in the summer, and she wore those little bubble suits all the time. Overalls and dresses are a problem for crawlers.

[Michele]

I have one gymbuck.

I'll probably get some sale stuff. Peruvian dolls maybe.

Emma just hit a growth spurt, so she could probalby still use cold weather stuff.

[Michele]

Not that it's really been cold. WTH is going on with the weather? :dunno:

[Michele]

None of the cute puppy stuff fits her anymore. :(

[Amy]

None of the cute puppy stuff fits her anymore. :(

I hate that! :getyou:

[Lisa]

Turtles, frogs, it is all cute.

[Kellee]

*Needs a baby now*

Would my sister think it was wierd if I started sending my niece a never-ending supply of Gymboree stuff I want back when/if I have a little girl?

[Amy]

:right: I'd be willing to enter into that sort of agreement with you. :D Of course, Maggie is in size five now, so it would be a while before miniKellee could fit into the clothes. :laugh:

[Natale]

None of the cute puppy stuff fits her anymore. :(


What size is it? :right:

[Michele]

6 mostly. Some 5's in pants.

The last few things I bought are 7's!

[Amy]

6 mostly. Some 5's in pants.

The last few things I bought are 7's!

:whistle:

[Amy]

What size is it? :right:

*flick* :right:

[Dar]

We need a girl size chain....

Who wears what? :right:

[Michele]

But you guys will all grumble behind my back cuz I suck at laundry. :laugh:

[Amy]

*also sucks at laundry* :angel: So, we're perfect together.

What size is BB? I bet she and Maggie are pretty close. Maggie is really a size 5, but I've started buying sixes, because she jumped out of 4s right after I bought a ton of them. She CANNOT wear 6s in pants yet...which reminds me, I've got something to exchange. :getyou:

[Lisa]

We could start a boys chain too. :right:

[Sonny]

We could start a boys chain too. :right:

Seems like a short chain. Me===>Mandy===>You. :laugh:

[Sonny]

And, of course, your son would probably soon be passing clothes down to my (shrimpy) son. :jack:

[Lisa]

Wonny is in there too.

[Amy]

:laugh: You all do.not. want my boys' hand-me-downs. They beat the hell out of them.

[Lisa]

And, of course, your son would probably soon be passing clothes down to my (shrimpy) son. :jack:

I thought Brandon at first. :laugh:

[Sonny]

Oh, yeah. :agree:

ETA: About Wonny---man I'm slow.

[Lisa]

:laugh: You all do.not. want my boys' hand-me-downs. They beat the hell out of them.

I asked first!!!! :getyou:


BB is in 5's. She is pretty good about outgrowing things on or around her birthday, so that makes it pretty convenient for me.

So what do you have Michele? :D

[Amy]

*submits* :p

[Michele]

I asked first!!!! :getyou:

It's not alot, but let me check. :D

[Amy]

*puts dibbs on Emma's next outfits* :D

[Amy]

:laugh: I'm totally kidding, really Maggie is drowning in clothes. She's spoiled. :nono:

[Amy]

But I wanted that damn "best frierd" (or whatever) sweater! :getyou:

[Natale]

You can have the best frierd shirt. :D

[Amy]

I feel silly even using my Gymbucks. She needs nothing...maybe some new summer clothes, but I'm not buying those until they are discounted.

/using them anyway :D

[Natale]

But they're 6's - for next year, right? /like I don't already have a whole drawer full of 6's plus two bags in the trunk of the car that I haven't even brought inside yet

[Lisa]

You two are cracking me up.

[Amy]

But they're 6's - for next year, right? /like I don't already have a whole drawer full of 6's plus two bags in the trunk of the car that I haven't even brought inside yet


:rofl: Ya. That's it.

[Michele]

Ok.

Everything is on the "verge" of being too small, but the only things I can say she will never wear again are the puppy vest and the brown puppy hoodie/pants set.

Both a size 6 and the pants are a 5.

The rest of the stuff I'll probalby try to get another month out of.



She's still wearing the shirts that go under them, so I guess they're not really outfits at all. :laugh:

[Natale]

Did you happen to buy the puppy jeans or the pink shirt with floral sleeves?

[Michele]

The sweat with the diamonds from primrose is about to small also.

[Amy]

You know, I've been reading a Gymboree board.../not crazy

I've made a few observations...

1. Holy.Crap. A cute outfit is nothing to get a 2nd mortgage for.
2. There is such thing as too damn much in a hair pretty.
3. Some kids need to be dressed in cute clothes, because they aren't. :indiff: /meanyhead

[Amy]

Did you happen to buy the puppy jeans or the pink shirt with floral sleeves?

:rolleyes: Now you're placing orders. :D

[Lisa]

*keeps reading like I am supposed to be in here for some reason*

[Karen]

Yeah, they aren't too bad for crawling. But the full dresses are the problem.

Is she set for 12 mo. clothes right now? I can do more digging to see what I have. I might have sent you what I had, because Alison ruined alot of the pants she had with crawling. However, I can look. I'm going to be in the attic, anyways, putting away Christmas stuff this week.

not sure....I gotta take stock again of what I have.

[Michele]

Did you happen to buy the puppy jeans or the pink shirt with floral sleeves?

Nope.

I tried to get that shirt. Sold out.

I paired the vest with a ivory/pink/brown striped collard shirt that I had from carters and regular jeans or a brown courdoroy skirt.

I'm totally not an outfit person. :turnsNatoff:

[Michele]

Sorry about my typos. My computer is acting funny.

[Natale]

Did you get any skorts?

[Natale]

How much do you want for the hoodie set?

[Amy]

I always get skorts. /not Michele :D

[Natale]

Some of those women are cRaZeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee - like this, but not in a good way: :boobies:


Which board is it?

[Amy]

Gymbofriends

[Amy]

I can't believe how much money they spend/plan to spend. Holy cow.

"I have about $892 in my cart right now." :indiff:

[Natale]

Don't you think some of them have to be exaggerating? If I had that kind of budget for children's clothing, I'd mix it up with some designer and boutique stuff. Gymboree is where I would buy everyday playclothes.

[Michele]

How much do you want for the hoodie set?

I'll just send it to you. :D

But the bad part about it is how lazy I am about shipping stuff. [/honest]

Is it for next year?

Did you catch that the pants were a 5?

Emma is skinny, so I bought the 5. I don't think I'll be able to do those type of pants for her anymore. I have to have adjustable.

[Amy]

Ya, I suppose they must be.

[Michele]

That board!

A bunch of "I spent tooo much on gymboree, omg" threads alternating with "my husband left me" threads.

I wonder if there's a correlation there.

[Amy]

That board!

LMFAO! I've only read it a couple of times.

[Amy]

Those GIANT hair pretties. :nono:

[Amy]

But some girl had some custom pants that matched the Mix and Match line. :swoon:

[Natale]

I'll just send it to you. :D

I don't mind paying you! I could also send a SASE. I have poly mailers. I would want it for this year and next year. The pants will be too short next year, but I'll still be able to use the jacket.

[Natale]

But some girl had some custom pants that matched the Mix and Match line. :swoon:


Cute? Really?

I usually think the customs are FUG.LEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

[Michele]

This is a bad picture....but this is the short sleeved shirt she wore with the vest. It has brown and pink stripes. Button up. The sleeves are kinda blousy.

And I have the puppy purse. She carried it once.

http://tinypic.com/2qxvwpd.jpg

[Michele]

Well, not really blousy. Cap sleeves, that blouse a little. [/girls fashion challenged]

[Natale]

That blouse works perfectly! Sadly, I am bothered by the script/misspelling issue.

[Amy]

Cute? Really?

I usually think the customs are FUG.LEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.

It matched the purse you got for Maggie. It had the same felt mouse on the leg. I thought it was pretty damn cute.

But, ya, most of the time they are WAY overdone.

[Amy]

That blouse works perfectly! Sadly, I am bothered by the script/misspelling issue.

*snort*

[Michele]

I could also send a SASE. I have poly mailers.

That would be fine! I don't have anybody to give my clothes too.

[Michele]

That blouse works perfectly! Sadly, I am bothered by the script/misspelling issue.


Is it? *checks*

I can't believe I never noticed that! The "n" looks like an "r" :laugh:

[Amy]

Is it? *checks*

I can't believe I never noticed that! The "n" looks like an "r" :laugh:

LMFAO! Nat has complained about that 800,319 times.

[Natale]

It says Best Frierd! And the f is funky too.

[Natale]

LMFAO! Nat has complained about that 800,319 times.


Who me?:D

[Amy]

I still think it's a cute sweater. :angel:

[Michele]

Do you want it for Maggie?

[Amy]

If BB is too good for it, I'll take it. :D

[Michele]

Ok. And the purse.

I guess Emma is not a purse girl.

She wanted to cut the puppy off so she could play with it, but I didn't let her. :laugh:

[Amy]

Score! :D

[Natale]

:doofi:

[Michele]

It's just too bad the mom with the least amount of gymboree has the biggest girl! :laugh:

[Natale]

It's just too bad the mom with the least amount of gymboree has the biggest girl! :laugh:


Oh, we're working on that. :right:

[Michele]

LMAO!

Nat will be telling me what to order next time around.

[Michele]

Some stuff fits, and some doesn't though...it's strange.

I bought this for under the puppy velour suit, but she's still wearing it.

http://i3.tinypic.com/2zrlycp.jpg

[Natale]

I have this in a 5 I think, otherwise I have a plain twig snow top that will work.

http://www.gymbohaven.com/primrose/140011361.jpg

[Mandy]

Uh, do Wonny or Jackson need any clothes? :indiff:

I'm cracking up at the moms with girls. Us boy mommies just can't get breaks where Gymbo is concerned. Sports, sailing, dinosaurs, racecars, cowboys, repeat. :laugh:

[Amy]

Wait, don't forget trains, alligators, and construction equipment!

[Amy]

:right: I saw a fire department shirt in the new line, didn't I?

[Natale]

AND there was that one line with dog heads on it last spring!

[Amy]

:dunno: I don't know what Mandy's complaining about. :indiff:

[Lisa]

Uh, do Wonny or Jackson need any clothes? :indiff:

I'm cracking up at the moms with girls. Us boy mommies just can't get breaks where Gymbo is concerned. Sports, sailing, dinosaurs, racecars, cowboys, repeat. :laugh:

Depending on the size/season, yes.

My sister's kids were born in the winter. So, all their newborn/little stuff is for cold weather.

[Mandy]

I can certainly see what I've got, especially since Spencer was a May baby too. But I'm sure you'll get more than enough at your shower(s) and from all Jackson's PDub aunties. :D

[Angie]

I bought Sophia a 4 and they fit good. /throwing it out there

Except she refuses to wear the little maroon shorts. :nono:

[Lisa]

I can certainly see what I've got, especially since Spencer was a May baby too. But I'm sure you'll get more than enough at your shower(s) and from all Jackson's PDub aunties. :D

[Dar]

I feel silly even using my Gymbucks. She needs nothing...maybe some new summer clothes, but I'm not buying those until they are discounted.

/using them anyway :D


I already told you what I wanted. :dunno:

[Amy]

:D Nice try!

[Dar]

:D Nice try!

:cry:

[Mandy]

Except she refuses to wear the little maroon shorts. :nono:

I can't believe she won't wear them! They are adorable!

[Natale]

So, Gymboree SUCKED today! They had nothing and the sales girl was all "yeah, we don't have any more of that."

I'm going to go to the Other Mall, and see what they have there if I can't find PD jeans, I'm gonna scream! I wonder if I should just suck it up and order online?

Here's what I put on hold:

Western day is Friday. :D Also found boots at Target for $10. :

NO jeans! No pretty pink sweater! I'll probably put that pink top back, I don't like it that much, but I didn't know what to pick! Because they had nothing! :getyou:

This is for the baby shower kid:

The did not have the turtle layette stuff out yet, but I really liked the radio flyer theme on this line. I wish it was marked down, though.

[Natale]

Oh, and Gymbuck redemption is ON!!!! Go order now if you are ordering online!!!!

[Amy]

:cry: I forgot. Now the site is all busy!

[Natale]

It came up just a little early I think. Usually I don't see the redemption notice until at least 30 minutes after the hour.

[Amy]

It always does. /not addicted

[Natale]

*scoffs at the idea of Gymboree addiction*


I don't have a problem. :indiff:

[Michele]

I'm gonna need to see a pic of BB with her gorgeous dark hair and that pink cowboy hat.

I'm just sayin.

[Amy]

:getyou: I just need my cart to update.

[Natale]

I'm not normally a fan of western wear, but is my kid going to be the most frigging cute thing you've ever seen in her pink hat and boots?

[Michele]

GAH!

I'm not feeling that I can spend money on this right now. But how can I pass up a $25 discount?

[Michele]

I'm not normally a fan of western wear, but is my kid going to be the most frigging cute thing you've ever seen in her pink hat and boots?

:agree:

[Michele]

I just need to be very practical and hit the sales.

[Amy]

*faints*

Talk about drama. Now I can finally see what you got. :laugh:

[Natale]

Michele, I saw a girl about 5-6 wearing the puppy hoodie today and I totally wanted to say "I'm getting that, you know."

[Amy]

I want that pink hat!

[Natale]

GAH!

I'm not feeling that I can spend money on this right now. But how can I pass up a $25 discount?

You can't. In the spring when the weather is tolerable but before the mosquitoes come out I will fly to Michigan and punch you really hard in the shoulder if you waste a Gymbuck.

[Natale]

I want that pink hat!

BB just about fell over when I showed her the picture of it. She has an old straw hat, and when I told her had a cowgirl hat on hold she was all "but I already have a hat." And then I told her I wouldn't get it if she didn't want it. She wanted to know what color it was and then she was all "I want that one!" :boobies: (only it was more up and down than side to side)

[Michele]

I would give it to you guys before I waste it. :D

Michele, I saw a girl about 5-6 wearing the puppy hoodie today and I totally wanted to say "I'm getting that, you know."

:D

I just washed the pants today. They were FLOODS the last time she wore them. Just send the SASE if you have it. Cuz that's the part I suck at.

[Amy]

I let Maggie pick. I'm not thrilled with the shoes, but she was crying. :laugh:

[Amy]

Huh. I wonder how long it would take me to get a SASE. I'll get one when the ice melts. /hopeful :D

[Amy]

On and these...

http://archive.gymbofriends.com/lines/323/RibbonClipTwoPack_big.jpg

[Michele]

I'll work on it. :laugh:

[Amy]

:D You shouldn't have to.

[Michele]

Wow.

Your girls are so girly. Emma is really lacking. :indiff:

Her new best friend is a girl (finally) so there is still hope.

[Amy]

Ha!

[Michele]

I have a question about the corsage shirts. Do they wear well?

[Amy]

I wanted the damn red tights, but they ran out. Surely it's some impossible to match color of red. :getyou:

[Natale]

Do you need one? I forgot what you're getting - the purse and the frierd sweater?


D00d! How'd you get those PD jeans? What size did you order?

[Amy]

Maggie has a dress with a "corsage", it needs to be pressed after washing...but just the flower part.

[Amy]

Do you need one? I forgot what you're getting - the purse and the frierd sweater?


D00d! How'd you get those PD jeans? What size did you order?

5. They had better fit. I bought some from Imaginary Friends in a six and they are huge. /crosses fingers

[Natale]

I have a question about the corsage shirts. Do they wear well?


I think I've ever bought one so I don't know, but I don't think I ever been unhappy with how something from Gymboree washed up. It's one of the reasons I like to shop there.

[Amy]

Maggie has only like 2 pair of jeans. :indiff:

[Natale]

5. They had better fit. I bought some from Imaginary Friends in a six and they are huge. /crosses fingers


Oh, I'm buying 6's for next year. She still has a couple of outfits in the "new clothes size 5" bag that haven't been worn yet.

Those shoes. I'll bet they're cute on?

[Amy]

Oh, I'm buying 6's for next year. She still has a couple of outfits in the "new clothes size 5" bag that haven't been worn yet.

Those shoes. I'll bet they're cute on?

Ya, I'm having a hard time thinking ahead. Some things, like skirts, I'm getting in sixes...also shirts. I think they'll fit for a while...possibly until next year. The adjustable waists are great. But, I don't want to risk it with jeans, besides, she needs them.

[Amy]

I've never even seen the shoes in person. :indiff: I hope they fit.

[Natale]

Maggie has only like 2 pair of jeans. :indiff:

She has jeans from MBF, WP, PC, and then 2 hand-me-downs. Plus, denim gauchos and cuffed capris.

[Natale]

Oh, and pair of jeans from S&S that are a full inch longer than all her other 5's. I put them in the drawer with the 6's.

[Amy]

Well, we already know the capri situation. One pair...that she dug out of a bag for Megan. :laugh:

[Natale]

Last year I did a bad job of buying "transition" clothes to wear on those days when it's cold in the morning and warm in the afternoon. This year we have a ton of capris.

[Amy]

I'm planning on getting some. Summer is just sooooo far away still. :cry:

[Amy]

Capris get a lot of wear here, as you can imagine. :nono:

[Natale]

I need to check my stash and see what I have. I think I'm good for summer, but I might need more transition outfits. Also, I need to be super extra mega certain to buy a pair of plain, basic, unembellished jeans when they offer them for BTS. Otherwise, I'll be sitting here next January SOL like I am now. I guess I could go look for them at TCP.

[Michele]

I'm having a hard time.

So far I'm thinking this, but I don't know.

http://i14.tinypic.com/3ywjsyf.jpg

http://i10.tinypic.com/2cok9ps.jpg

[Michele]

It's brown.

How weird. :indiff:

[Michele]

She has a lot of jeans and khakis. Yes, they're plain, but so what.

[Michele]

I kinda wanted spring stuff...but I'm not paying full price.

[Natale]

I'm having a hard time.

So far I'm thinking this, but I don't know.

That would be so cute with BB's new boots. You know that skirt is corduroy, right? /not sure why that matters other than I was just surprised it was corduroy and not knit

[Amy]

Maggie would love that!

[Michele]

That does kinda matter.

I'm trying to find things to transition into spring. I don't think I'm gonna.

[Michele]

I was looking at the imaginary friends line. I loved that line. All I bought was this.

http://i3.tinypic.com/30mpt21.jpg

I can't find much in her size that I like. I'm sure not going to buy wool knickers...as much as I love houndstooth. I'm not sure that is very practical.

[Amy]

:right: I wanted that. I totally took it out of my cart at the last minute.

[Amy]

Maggie has one meeeelllllion pieces from that line.

[Michele]

Really?

I thought that line was so cute, but I didn't buy anything.

I got her that shirt to match a panda webkinz for Christmas. :indiff:

[Natale]

It's not a heavy corduroy, it's the thin more lightweight type.

Do you have all the skorts you can stand? I think there are still some cute denim ones available.

The polos from the new "preppy" line are priced at $14.50 - that's not too bad if you've got gymbucks.

[Natale]

I didn't wind up with any panda stuff.

[Michele]

Yeah. My SIL lives in Florida and sends me tons of summer hand me downs. I have a bunch of denim skorts. I kinda don't understand why she sends me summer hand me downs right before winter when Emma can't wear them, and she is too big for them by summer.

I need to go through them for you guys.

I'll check out the polo's.

I'm just trying to make the most of everything since money will be tight until June, yanno?

[Michele]

I didn't wind up with any panda stuff.

I thought some of the panda stuff was too overbearing, but maybe that is because Emma is getting older.

I liked the black/pastel combination of that line alot, though.

[Amy]

The panda dress is SO.CUTE.

[Natale]

I wasn't totally on board with the line as a whole, (for older girls, if I had a 2 yo I would have bought all of it) but it had some great pieces.

This outfit (but not with boots!) - love the sweater, sparkly flower, and check skirt:
http://www.gymbohaven.com/imaginary/274742935_0af762294b_m.jpg

The houndstooth coat - love this, not sure what I would put with it:
http://www.gymbohaven.com/imaginary/274742155_90d2be6c96_m.jpg

I liked this dress, although it wasn't popular on the boards (I did however notice they sold out of the stores pretty quickly)
http://www.gymbohaven.com/imaginary/274742103_e5166c854a_m.jpg

[Michele]

The panda dress is SO.CUTE.

I REALLY wanted that.

It was just Christmas, etc. etc.

It really is adorable, though.

[Natale]

The panda dress is SO.CUTE.

I wish they had done that dress in a different color. I didn't think BB would like an all black dress.

[Michele]

I love houndstooth.

LOVE.

My grandparents had a pair of houndstooth chairs that I would die to get my hands on.

[Michele]

I wish they had done that dress in a different color. I didn't think BB would like an all black dress.

See. I totally see that.

But I love the black and brown stuff. I think it work well with a blonde girl.

[Amy]

:laugh: I didn't buy any of the stuff you posted.

[Amy]

I'm gonna have to take a pic of her in the dress. People are all :swoon: when they see her. :laugh:

[Natale]

I like black too, but BB doesn't. She only wears it because I like it. She told me that.

She doesn't have that many black pieces, and they are way cute. But I guess I'll try to avoid it if she doesn't like it. Then again, she changes her mind all the time, who can keep up with that?

[Natale]

I'm gonna have to take a pic of her in the dress. People are all :swoon: when they see her. :laugh:

Yeah, I want to see it on a cute kid. Then I can be mad because I didn't get it.

Plus various hair pretties.

What? I know you all wanted to know all of this. :indiff: :D

[Amy]

Oh and some tights. :indiff:

She wears the black dress with the pink footless tights and the sparkle shoes (what? :D) or regular socks and her pink Converse.

[Michele]

It's so cute. :D

How do you do with the gymboree shoes?

Emma's feet are sooo thin. I can't even buy her sandals most of the time because her feet slip right through the opening.

I'm afraid to buy gymboree shoes for that reason.

That dress is really adorable.

[Amy]

:laugh: That was the first pair I bought. Maggie has the same problem with narrow feet. I'm skeptical about the clogs, but the glitter shoes are fine...I bought them at the store.

[Amy]

She wanted them so.bad.

[Amy]

LMAO! /crazy Gymboree mom

[Michele]

Emma wanted the brown boots from the primrose line really bad.

[Mandy]

I put a few things on hold, most for next year. A few sweaters, some jeans, 2 shirts for this summer. I got some pjs, a shirt, and some shoes for now, though. He needs summer stuff. I think his shorts will still fit but his shirts will be too small.

The houndstooth knickers were among the gymboree items I bought for Ellie at Christmas. I got the cream, knit dressy looking shirt, too. It was really warm at Christmas, so my sister paired the knickers with a pink tank and lightweight pink jacket one evening. It was so cute. I think they're a lot more versatile than you think.

[Natale]

Ha! I found the jeans. I didn't find the sweater I wanted, but I found the blue floral LBE dress marked 12.99 and I bought the navy WYWH gauchos to match with a top I already had. I switched out the pink top that I wasn't crazy about for a red turtleneck. Oh, and the doll hair clips that Amy got for Maggie. /stalker

For earnings and redemption, I spent a total of $120.43, and my purchases had a total retail value of 609.75. That's 80% off.

1 dress
4 knit pants
3 jeans/trousers
2 hoodies
1 fleecy jacket
1 blouse
2 sweaters
8 knit tops
1 pair socks
1 card of hair pretties
and an outift to give at the baby shower

Damn.

Unless you find one that says I :hbeat: Wheels. Then, it is ok.

:rofl:

If it were pink and said that, then we'd be in business. Who says girls don't like sports?!

[Amy]

You'll need to tie up the sleeves with red ribbons. :D

[Natale]

Yup. I'll bet it would be cute with the red or navy polka dot capris and matching hair pretties.

[Mandy]

If you did that and put red bows in her piggies, it'd be super cute.

[Mary Ann]

So, I don't think so.

[Dar]

Sweeeeet.... if you guys say so, than it must be, right?

But I'm second guessing the black. It's Florida, you know.

[Natale]

Are you sure it's black and not navy?

[Dar]

No. It's hard to tell on the computer. I haven't looked at their website.
