Welcome to Womanhood

Camo,
I realized this week that all your adorable little 3 month clothes are just not going to make it much longer. Your growth spurt has left you with only 5 pairs of jammies that fit and I bought three of them all at once in a panic. We also have had some unseasonably warm weather so I haven't had much for you to wear to Cara's every day. It has consistently been in the 80s pretty much this whole week.

So I headed to my thrify mom HQ, Target. I found some really cute little cotton shorts in pink, denim, khaki, and black. I meant to buy another pair in light pink but swapped out a size and forgot to get the bigger ones. And guess what size we got? I even tried them on you in the store so I wouldn't get home and be wrong.... 9 months! What in the world? You have some adorably chubby legs and the 6 month size wouldn't have fit halfway into the summer. So I decided, we're in a recession and should just buy what will last.

The funniest part is that you can still wear a 6 month size shirt. And that's pretty much how you will shop for the rest of your life. Small shirt, medium pants. It's just a little blessing that your mommy is passing down from her genetic family history. Don't worry, you will eventually start walking and lose most of it. You know, come to think of it, your mommy should probably be working out more on the Wii to take care of her own chubby thighs instead of worrying about yours.

And did I mention that Mrs. Cara said that Ainslee (15 month old!) is still wearing her 9 month shorts from last summer? Yeah, you are catching up to her. You are probably never going to want to go shopping with that girl.
