Most neurotic question ever posted on RL

Kate is pretty set for fall with Hanna.
Nick will be sporting Boden.
I love both, but they do not look so good TOGETHER. Tell me I am being ridiculous.

You are too much. Look at it this way, though- even if you put Nick in boys' Hanna, they still wouldn't match. How would your DH feel if you put him in a playdress set? :)

Sometimes DS and I match, mostly for subconscious reasons. I think my brain says, "Hey, I feel like wearing green today!" and before I know it, we're both in green.

I agree with the PP's comments.... the HA stuff is totally different for boys versus girls. The boys' stuff is totally uninspired (sadly).

I only think you'd be ridiculous if they DID actually match (although define "matching".... wearing the same outfit? or do you mean "look somewhat harmonious together?")

I have twins who I always coordinate (but don't match) so I feel your neurosis... My DS is usually in Boden and the girls wear a lot of Hanna, if that helps.

While DS doesn't "match" the twins, I think the Boden shirts are creative in the same way that the Hanna is different for girls. Occasionally, DS will have on a Hanna shirt or something, but as he has grown, I think he looks better in more subtle, rough-and-tumble stuff, like Boden.

Love it!

Oh, Susan, I don't find it neurotic at all. Do you scrapbook? If so, colors must be coordinating at least!

Here is where I humiliate myself by admitting that on days we know we will be taking a lot of pictures, me, DD, and DH are color coordinate. Even DH takes the initiative on this sometimes. ;)

Holli I think that is very nice of your DH!

Now that is getting your moneys worth Susan!!!

Susan...your family photo is going to be so much fun to look at in 20 years! Hey, you can just tell Nick it is a swedish kilt.

[spanannie]

You are not neurotic; I find that I gravitate toward similar colors when I pick out the days' clothes.

[spanannie]

As you know, I try all of the clothes that I buy ahead for DD on DS to see the fit. Maybe I'm the neurotic one ;-)

[ChunkyNicksChunkyMom]

Annie! I wasn't gonna tell where I got the idea! I can not imagine this fitting Kate next summer? (80).

I thought of putting John in a dress for fun. He's such a pretty baby and we likely wont have a girl........ no guts though.

[daisyandacorn]

He looks cute!!!

[spanannie]

Grace is in 80 still (just barely) and she's 2 yrs 2 mos. I guess it all depends on how tall Kate is then. Grace is 75% for height.

Well, if it helps, DD is almost 10 months and will be wearing a 70 playdress and an 80 playdress this winter (turns 1 Nov 4th) - so after you wash that a few times I bet it will fit Kate next summer! And I have to admit that when I saw Nick in it, I almost asked you what size it was...it does fit him well :)

MAybe I'm the weird one - DH and I are absolutely not allowed to match. I have made him change his shirt even when we were both wearing vastly different shades of brown.

[SummerBaby]

He looks cute! This will be great blackmail material someday! :)

I don't like to match with my DH but sometimes I 'accidently' put DH and DS in the same colors, or DD and me coordinate. I don't mean coordinate as much as look good together!

[Ceepa]

If DH and I end up matching we always stop and joke, "So I see you got the memo."
