Clothes, Clothes, MORE CLOTHES!

Now that I've nabbed Ryan's user name I'll be able to update the blog MUCH more frequently!

So, in an effort to procrastinate taking Olsen to the vet (who wants to deal with a baby and a crazy dog? I already get glares from people when it's just the dog, imagine what they'll think when I'm trying to manage both of them!) I decided to go through B's laundry basket full of clean and new clothing. I knew he had grown out of quite a few outfits, but I had no IDEA how many he had never even worn! Thankfully, we received several outfits meant for 6-month-olds, so I'll be tossing those in the washer momentarily. I just can't believe how quickly he's grown out of his outfits.

I have to admit that I have a strong preference for onesies. Separates just ride up on him and flash his beer (well, formula) belly. I think we're down to 5 onesies at this point, so I may drop into the mall while we're waiting to meet Ryan for lunch today. Surely Baby Gap or Gymboree has some clearance onesies, right?

Speaking of Baby Gap and Gymboree, I have noticed that both they and Carter's seem to have the best quality and most true-to-size (I don't have much credibility on this one...) clothing. I remember reading something like this in my "Baby Bargains" book, but I've now come to appreciate it.

Well, off we go to the mall. Wish us luck! We haven't been to the mall since June when we were shopping unsuccessfully for courtroom appropriate maternity clothes.

(Note to grammar aficionados: I am very aware that the names of books should be underlined; however, I cannot find an "underline" function on my toolbar. This is why I have the name of the book in quotations. Please excuse me.)
