So basically, he refuses to wear khakis, denim, cords, etc. I had to go buy more fleece pants, sweats, and windpants just so I get could him dressed for school each day. <br /><br />Sure, a better mom would make him wear the "scratchy" pants, but I am not that woman.mephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03074153090546740903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4327382592404863779.post-8884551721389117662009-11-06T02:24:56.303+00:002009-11-06T02:24:56.303+00:00I have to agree with him on seams - especially one...I have to agree with him on seams - especially ones across the toe - they hurt!<br />Isn't it amazing to have boys so finicky?

Mine didn't care what he wore, shopping with him was a nightmare as we'd always come home with wrong size shoes because he just said 'they're fine ' as soon as he got a pair on. Now at the tender age of 22 he's extremely interested in what he wears. And no, it's not a new girlfriend, this one has been around 3 years now...!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02658858373848443540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4327382592404863779.post-30276083942245060682009-11-05T19:09:22.355+00:002009-11-05T19:09:22.355+00:00He sounds cute!
