Can YOU Do That?

I had to go drop a bunch of money on clothes for Bonesteele yesterday. Somehow he grew out of most of his pants in the space of one week. Since he goes through 2-3 outfits a day (very messy eater), it just doesn't work for him to only have 2 pairs of pants that fit. So I bought a few outfits in 12 months and a few in 18 months for later this winter.

Hopefully he is not wearing those 18-month clothes two weeks from now.

Mr N exclaimed pointedly, "That's more money than I've spent on clothing this entire year!"

I shot back, "Yeah, well, have you doubled your body weight in the past seven months?"

Thankfully the answer is no.

My husband always comments on spending money on kid's clothes. I am glad to hear your husband has not doubled his weight, haha. Oh, I have had pretty good luck on craigslist with kid's clothes. I have bought a couple lots on there that have helped save a lot of money.

I had to do the same thing for Andrew last week. Suddenly, he's in 12-month clothing. Seriously, when did he get so big? And when is he going to slow down with the growing?

Mr. N doubling his weight in 7 months...now THAT would be something to see! LOL

If I doubled my weight I would look like agent 86 in "Get Smart" before he lost all that weight:)
