No weight gain: Gaining weight will make your whole body larger, there is no way to direct weight gain to (or away from) a particular area. In your case, directed exercises may help some. But our body shape is largely a matter of genetics.

Targeted exercises: Your thighs and butt are meant to endure more physical strain and exertion than we provide them. Practice lifting objects with wide based stance (think sumo wrestler) to minimize back and knee bending and focus on butt/thighs. Do squats and leg presses. Power walking and cycling can help. Dancing/twerking (no joking) can also help. Do not go overboard with eating - you might get more than you want
