When buying big girl panties for your 5 year old…

…try to avoid any with a kitty on them.  Especially if your she has a 2 year old brother.

We walked in on Princess and BamBam getting dressed.  Princess had only her panties on, the ones with a kitty on the front.
BamBam is looking closely at said panties, kneeling down and pulling them to get a [...]

I put the ham and cheese [...]
