One of the saddest events in being a mom is switching Nathan's clothes over to the next size. I don't know what it is, but saying goodbye to one size and washing and folding another makes me nostalgic. Part of the sadness comes from Nathan not being able to wear all of the clothes in that size before he is too big for them. And I think part of my sadness is in thinking, did I enjoy this stage with him as much as I should have.
Last week, I had to switch out Nathan's sleepers. He was wearing 3-6 months sleepers and he could no longer stretch out his legs in them. So, now he is wearing 6-9 month sleepers. How old is Nathan....oh yes 3.5 months. He had a growth spurt last week and I swear he grew an inch over night. Daniel thinks he has been spending too much time in his jumper so his legs are stretching our (likely theory).
The good news about Nathan going up a size is that he now wears socks that will stay on! Baby socks only come in 2 sizes, 0-6 months and 6-18 months. Nathan's combination huge feet and chubby cankles meant that he would lose about a sock a day. But the new socks, they go up his shins...no more slipping off.
