summer sizes

the odd thing about being tall and slim is that sizing is next to impossible. i didn't pack up last summer's clothes for just that reason. i figured that some of her dresses could be shirts and that maybe some of her pants and shorts would finally fit in the waist.

madelyn wears anywhere from size 18 months to 4T right now. i have to try just about everything on her so we always have a 'plan b' when getting dressed in the morning just in case something doesn't quite fit. there are only a few shorts and dresses that will fit in the 18 month size. the shorts from last summer finally fit in the waist and the dresses fit but are so short that the bloomers show. last summer these same dresses came down to her mid-shin.

she is wearing a size 8/9 shoe and a size 6 diaper (for length, not width - the smaller diaper won't reach up above her hips and fall down).

this is the widest variety of sizes we have ever had to deal with at once and that is why i wanted to make a note of it. love.

oh and her second molar on the bottom came in yesterday - two more to go!
