Janie and Jack New addiction (It's really addition) to Gymboree Corporation
The people at Gymboree are the devil. It's not like I don't already spend a ton of money at Gymboree, they have to go and open a new store called Janie and Jack to tempt me. I love, love, love this new store. They only have about 10 stores nationwide but are available online at:

Take a look at how cute.
Any will power/self control that I have at the Gymboree stores totally disappears once I step into this store. Everything is so darned cute (but not too cutesy). I ended up buying the entire boys soiree line that they have. This is my absolute favorite line of baby clothes. I think I will have to start a baby clothes addict anonymous thanks to them. Thankfully they are currently having a 50% off sale on several of their collections so I don't have to feel totally guilty. Please tell me that there are other mothers out there addicted to baby clothes. I think I could change Alexander twice a day and he would not have to wear the same thing for at least 3 weeks to a month.

Why have you done this to me? Why? Why? I was blissfully unaware of this cuteness, and now I'm going to have to buy things. :)

Oh those are so cute! Luckily I'm a SAHM and can't afford an $18 hat for Ds or else I'd be SO addicted, too!

Ooh, we have a couple of these stores in two of the malls near us and they are GORGEOUS! You cannot believe how incredibly soft the material is. I wanted to cry. Yeah, it's more expensive than Gymboree, but if you get their clothes, you will die at how wonderful they feel. It has been such a struggle to steer clear of that store, especially since DH likes the stuff too. But seriously, eat vs. clothes she doesn't really need? I'm a food freak, so there you go. But that doesn't stop the hint-dropping to grandma...

Gee, thanks Sandy! As if I need yet another reason to shop my hard-earned pennies away. And I love my little boy, but I must say that if he was a little girl, Shawn would have kicked me out by now. I used to work in a children's boutique and I have a trunk full of beautiful smocked dresses and such girly stuff. I'm sure I'll have nine boys because of it.
Oh, and Sarah, hint-dropping? HA! I blatantly asked my mother for a stroller for my birthday. Can you believe it? I've crossed that line between mildly (and controllably...is that even a word?) obsessed and certified off-my-rocker insane. You should have heard Shawn. He flipped! I wasn't entirely serious, but I wasn't all together joking either. :P

You guys are killing me with cute clothing websites. Last night I place an order with Janie and Jill now I log on today and yet another site to check out. I keep telling people that at least DS will be the best dressed baby in divorce court. :)

But which stroller?! I'm sure you NEED it... ;)

Yep I'm a clothes addict too. My first dd wore gorgeous things I found cheaply at garage sales. She was one of the very best dressed kids I knew! :) Tons of name brand stuff at rock bottom prices.
But now I have two little girls and I HAVE to dress them alike. I'm spending WAAAY too much at Gymboree these days! But they look so darn cute in their Western Prairie stuff, and their Portabello Road stuff, and their Nautical stuff and their Victorian charm stuff.....EEK!
And have you seen Gymbo's new line?? I have GYMBUCKS!! :D

Do you mean the navy and yellow line with the daisies? I ADORE that line! I am waiting anxiously for that line to go on clearance!
