I was totally convinced we were having a girl and I was wrong! One of the things I was excited for about a girl was all the cute clothes! Boys' clothes are definitely less abundant... My JCPenney had 3-4 racks of boy clothes vs. 8-10 girls racks... 
I really want to find the perfect going home outfit for DS and I'd love to see some ideas from the other team blue mommies!

Just a cute Dino sleep n'play that one of my students gave us. It was huge on him in the newborn size.

We didn't really have one since he was so small. I had bought these super cute outfits in newborn, but they were huge. Lesson learned and my advice to you is buy an outfit in newborn and preemie. My mom ended up running to my house and finding the smallest onesie in out stash I don't even remember what it was.

@bree72: agreed!!! I had a NB sleeper and it was huge. He had a preemie onesie at home that fit him perfectly for a month!

We had a cute little frog sleeper. The hat is from a different outfit though which is why it doesn't match =)

@sweetkate: ha, ha, nice car seat! Couldn't even tell they didn't match.
I look at these photos and am amazed they even let us take these tiny babies home with us! It sure doesn't last long!

I don't have a picture of his coming home outfit but it was a Baby Gap one piece in the "up to 7lbs" size (he was 8lbs 2oz but everything runs so big!). It was grey and black striped, so cute.
Definitely less selection for boys but that means you can spend your money on really stylish key pieces instead of a lot of everything just because it's cute. I particularly love 77 Kids, Janie & Jack, Gymboree and of course, BabyGap (the boys jeans and button up shirts are the cutest).
Congrats on your little man!

We got this newborn sleeper from Babies R Us. I was (and still am) dying over fox/woodland creature outfits! This fit him for about 3 weeks.
I might like boys' outfits better. I think there's a little more variety when creating outfits. But, then again, I don't have a little girl

@mewtill: We have that little organic number too
My guy is always dressed to impress. There is TONS of cute clothes for baby boys if you're willing to be a little funky For his going home outfit though, he wore a pretty cute number:
It was a sock monkey onesie with a tie and matching hat. I currently can not find 2 pics of him wearing them together though, but he did lol
