When M&M and I decided to have children I thought I would have girls.  I have a sister and quite frankly knew nothing about raising boys.  Fast forward to today.  We’re the parents of a 13 year old and 10 year old boys.  I really thought we had gotten off easy on the drama and shopping of it all.

I’ve been to the mall 2x in less than 72 hours.  First we had to pick up a pair of converse at Journeys.

Last night we went to AEO because Spike had to have this.

And Ike had to have these.

This morning was ugly getting ready for school.  Spike thought he could wear shorts with his fedora.  Ummm… it’s 27 degrees outside.  Let the drama begin!
