I went to Once Upon a Child last month to stock up on some clothes for the summer for Ares (I'm cheap, or frugal, whatever you want to call it - and I love those stores). I got Ares a spinning bike too, so he can ride his indoor bicycle trainer while Adam rides his. Last year, I bought lots of cute outfits, but they were all in different colors and you had to have certain shirts with certain shorts otherwise, it didn't work out. With a boy who LOVES all things wet - it was tough for Adam to find things that matched when a change was warranted (or, when laundry was 1/2 done and he needed to dress Ares for school).
So here's my Apology -- I am sorry it might be confusing if one event is posted with another event and it appears there's yet another orange shirt, because, it's probably a different day, but a similar outfit.
Nearly every picture you see my kid in this summer will have brown and orange in it. Not because I'm a Cleveland Browns fan (I am) but because those colors had the best selection of clothes, had lots of construction vehicles, Jeeps, (anything Jeep is good) or Tow-Mater on them, and had nice options to mix and match shorts and shirts for days he needs a change.
Adam really appreciates it though =). I did buy a few things in different colors, but a very limited amount. This should help too, on the days that Ares decides to pick out his own clothes. He usually matches very well, but there's times where I think he's trying to be the male version of Punky Brewster.
I can't believe I admitted to being a Browns fan in Public! Yikes!!
