Back-to-school!

I never thought I'd be so happy to hear those three words together.  This is Lil J's first year going back to school, or preschool rather.  In any case, it's a good thing - for both Mommy and Daddy and Lil J.  Plus, we get to go back-to-school shopping!!
Last Sunday was reserved for taking a trip to our local Sears to see what they had in store for back-to-school {pun intended!}.  Over the past few months, Lil J has been more vocal about what he wants to wear and he takes the initiative to dress himself in the mornings, so I thought our shopping spree at Sears would be the perfect chance to get him to start choosing his own clothes!
Much to my amusement, Lil J chose a number of licensed character tees and I had him pick two out of the many that were on his "must-have" list.  He ended up with a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle long sleeved tee and a Ninjago t-shirt.  I may have added a pair of grey skinnies and a Canucks tee {my brother would be so proud!}:

Even though Baby Z is clearly not going "back-to-school", I couldn't resist picking up a few fall/winter items for her.  The pieces we bought for Baby Z aren't necessarily meant to go together but will be her wardrobe staples once the colder weather rolls around.  Can you tell I have a slight obsession with greys and pinks?
You may be thinking why bother getting new clothes for the upcoming school year when the kids just wear them out anyways, right?  Well, two of the best things about Sears is their price match guarantee and their Kidvantage Lifetime Wear Out Warranty.  I mean, who wouldn't want the piece of mind that they can return any apparel or footwear that wears out as long as a child in the family can still wear it and proof of purchase is given?  Plus, everything I bought was under $100!  Easy on the pocketbook plus an unbeatable warranty - it's a win-win for everyone!
