Babydaddy fashion question
 

Any idea where to get cool matching daddy-baby outfits? (which is of course very different from matching babydaddy outfits).

I am thinking that might be a nice holiday gift for my hard-to-shop-for babydaddy. No clue re gender. (Gender of impending baby, that is; I'm fairly clear on daddy's gender, but after all we do live in SF so one never knows (do one). And no, he's not the leather-wearing kind of daddy - not so far, at least).

Thanks in advance.

Shoot - that's a great idea, except we are not a football household; actually, neither of us cares a whit about professional sports. (Too early to tell on the kid, but moot since s/he won't be able to work the remote for a while yet.)

Use of "shoot," "whit" and "moot" all in one three-line post makes the "not giving a crap about football" preeeeeety obvious.

I don't like sports either. I'm just saying.

a) Speaking as a baby's daddy (though of course, not your baby's daddy), this idea sucks.

b) If, nonetheless, you wish to persist in you quest to find matching clothing for man and child:

http://www.landsend.com (check the sweaters)
http://www.ctshirts.co.uk/usddefault (much of the "kids" stuff has adult counterparts)

(emphasis mine) I was dressed in Maroon and White before I could walk. It had no impact on my decision where to go to school, but I think my dad was sort of proud to have an Aggie kid for a few months. I dont' think I wore much Aggie gear after I got to be old enough to pick my own clothes.

Yeah, I'm probably doomed. He is a bitch to shop for, though, so I thought I'd try to be creative. Oh well. Maybe porn instead (in which case I'll take the discussion to the FB, and no, it will not involve the kid at all whatsoever).

Thanks for the links.

well, at least you will spare the child of the embarrassment of being dressed in 49ers gear.

Try babywit.com. I have gotten my husband and the bairn matching Sex Pistols and Motorhead T-shirts (and matching "Can't Sleep Clowns Will Eat Me" T-shirts from cafepress). They both seemed reasonably impressed. babywit may not carry the adult sizes, but I didn't have trouble finding some of the patterns in adult sizes elsewhere.

Oh, come now. I have a little boy who loves to dress like me. We regularly both put on the jeans and flannel lumberjack outfit.

Of course, he also likes to dress like his older sisters, but that's a different story.

So I get to pre-school to pick up the (Not So) Tiny Slothrop yesterday, and he and the rest of the kids whose parents don't love them as much as the parents of the kids who got their earlier at at a couple of tables, playing with something like silly putty, only it's stickier. Which is fine, and not really the point. The point is, the teachers are just blasting an Alvin & the Chipmunks Xmas record, apparently as background noise (emphasis on the noise part).

What's up with that? Is this a psy ops technique that they've picked up from the military? I thought it was bizarre, but didn't say anything to the teachers, partly because I wasn't sure that I could yell loud enough.

It's a passive aggressive thing. The parents who pick the kids up earlier (the ones who love their kids more) set a subconscious outside bar to "end of day" in the minds of the teachers. Anyone who comes in after the time the majority of kiddies go are "late." The teachers' day is done and the music gets blasted so they don't have to listen to the kids during "overtime."

At least that's my take on it. My daycare center is open until 6:30 pm. But show up at 6:29.59 and you get handed a thirsty kid whose diaper hasn't been changed since 5 pm by the last remaining employee, who is shutting the lights off behind you as the door hits you in the ass on your way out. The process breaks down after 5 pm. Kids of all different classrooms left there by mean parents after 5 pm get combined into little groups of other unloved kids until there is just one, small group of the least loved kids, of which mine is always a part. At 6:00 pm, this group participates in what I call the "Walk of Shame". Classrooms are closed and the leftover ragtags are made to march in single file up to the front foyer of the center, where they wait for their neglectful parents to arrive.

None of this bothers me in the slightest because the kids don't care a whit. They get to run wild in the halls and rearrange the hall furniture. It's the best part of the day for them. Anarchy rules. The Walk of Shame kids are the coolest kids there.

Okay, so what was the question again?

Isn't it possible the music is turned up because Ty's kid keeps talking to the staff about their breasts?
