Nora is outgrowing some of her clothes! I can't believe it! My little baby has doubled her size since she was born!
Last night I had to get out one of out plastic storage tubs and I t is almost full of the Premie and 0-3 month clothes! I am in shock. I knew this day was going to happen....but...
The good news is that I got to open a tub of clothes that was until now- way to big. And the bigger clothes are now in the dresser! It still blows my mind. I can't believe it!

Crazy isnt it! Durring certain stages they will grow so fast that they will not even get to wear all of thier clothes. One year at Easter, I bought all the kids new shoes about 2 weeks before the big day. Easter morining I dressed everybody up in the new duds I had made them and found out that my youngest (then 18 months) had already outgrown her shoes! I was so disapointed! Luckily I had a pair of hand-me-downs from her sister that worked, but they were not the pretty pearlicent ones I had hoped for.
It slows down some between 1 &11 but then picks back up at puberty! Well for boys anyhow -- the girls seem to change sizes a bit slower. My son grew 6 inches this year and 3 or 4 shoe sizes!!!
My kids are so close together that there isn't alot of handing down clothes..too close to the same size..except for my girls..they are about 4 sizes apart (youngest is very small for her age) and I don't even try to hang on to things in between...they go to a cousin first. My boys go through shoe sizes right now like crazy!! I remember those baby days where they just fly through the sizes...it IS amazing!

I just can't believe it! :) I keep the tub of "too small" clothes out and sure enough- every time I do laundry I find and outfit or two that is just too small! Some of them, I am sure I could force her to wear- but why dress her in something that is borderline too small when there are other clothes to wear- right?
