Jake is really big now. I'm not sure how big he is or when this all happened but it's kind of weird. He's outgrowing all his 18-24 month shirts as we speak, and his 18-24 pants are still hitting his ankles only because the waist is so saggy.
Because I don't want to give you grounds to call the people on me because I have a naked baby running around in November, I stopped in to the clearance racks at Children's Place to see what I could find in a 2T. Instead of looking at size tags, I picked up a few things that looked about the size of the boy. (That's how I shop for Dave too, I just hold things up. It works 99% of the time). When I checked the tags to make sure that everything actually was on sale and not just stuck on the sale rack, I was shocked to see that not one thing was bigger than 12 months.
When did I lose track of how big Jake is? Why do I think that he is still so tiny and little and itsy? Am I always going to have this problem? When I look at things he was wearing last year, I don't say "I can't believe he fit this", I say "I can't believe this is packed away, he can probably still wear this".
I guess all this has to do with the same reasoning that causes people to think I am huge and feel the need to buy me XL sweaters. I'm a little on the tall side but not really, and I'm somewhat well-endowed in the boob department but they aren't super huge, but I still take a small because I am lacking an adequately adult-sized ribcage. I'll take a medium maybe if it is running small or you find it in the juniors department. And I like 100% cotton sweaters. Wool bothers me. Cashmere is appreciated. I'm kinda into the Fair Isle thing that is really popular right now. I love love love argyle. I'm sort of over turtlenecks, I like crew necks, and v-necks are flattering. And Christmas is 45 days away.
