Also, goggles. They got these awesome (yet freaky!) goggles that, when they put them on, make them appear to have these huge staring eyes.
Picked up the bathing suits at The Children's Place on Union Square. And right on display in the front was a shirt with the inscription "Most Likely To Spend Daddy's Money".
Is it just me (and it's not) or is that fairly misogynistic and more than a little inappropriate for your daughter to wear? You're not likely to see that shirt on the "boy side" of the store (where the closest equivalent is... well, there's nothing there about spending money.
I didn't say anything there, because the cashiers didn't ask for this, but I went to the website today to consider complaining about it. (That'd make this the second time I email them to make a complaint about their shirt selections, the last time because every single time they put a cartoon face on a shirt it's a white kid, and after five years of browsing their site I started to feel it was a little ridiculous.)
Check out the shirt and the information about it.
Now I'm really pissed. "Haha, Mommy doesn't spend her own money, she spends Daddy's too!" Anybody else care to email them? For those of us not yet living in the 21st century, email is a way of communicating with people and corporations online, and apparently of upbraiding them for their archaic sexism.
