Not To Be Outdone

My little man and bud is hitting a major growth spurt.  He received some cash from a sweet couple as a Christmas gift this week and he asked me to pick him up something to wear for Sunday.  Good man!  He's outgrown his black dress shoes, too.  So we decided to get some khakis and a sweater (yep, his choice) that would match a pair of brown Columbia boots he has.  So, being a frugal shopper, I knew I could always count on Target for some classic dress clothes for boys at reasonable prices (JCPenney's is the pits. We've decided we're done with them after last night's fiasco.  I'd rather my children not dress as street thugs or hookers or that I not spend that amount of money on less than quality clothes.  Grrr.  I was just so disappointed in what used to be one of our favorite stores.).  Anyway, gulp, I had to move out of the little boys' department at Target yesterday and head on over to the men's department.  I was a little sad to say the least.  I'm just so not ready for all these transitions.  I'm just not.
