On Friday I went through all of Owen's 12 month clothes gearing up for him to fit into them. To my surprise he could have actually been wearing many of them for some time now. It really irks me that all baby clothes can't be standard. Like Gerber clothes they run terribly small, but Carters run big. These train engineer bibs are from Oshkosh and they fit Owen perfectly, but he's only in the 1 percentile for his size. This just makes no sense to me. An average size baby would have been wearing these 12 month bibs back when they were 3 months old. It just really makes it hard when you are trying to organize your clothes for you child.
I guess since children don't come in standard sizes, I shouldn't be surprised that the clothes aren't standardized either. I can understand the frustration though - you shouldn't have to bring a tape measure with you when you go shopping.
ReplyDeleteAnd I do have an unrelated question: will the new baby get his/her own blog or will Owen have to share?
Owen will just have to share once the new baby comes. I'll have to change the title of the blog though. Either Handsome Little Men or something else entirely. Any suggestions??
ReplyDeleteThe Martin Gang has a nice ring to it. Or maybe the Martin Mob would be better. That's got some alliteration going for it.
ReplyDeleteI like Martin Mob. It's got a nice ring!
