4T

in Babies: 9 - 12 Months

That's the size jeans my son is wearing right now, 11 days shy of his first birthday. 

I haven't put Eli in jeans or non-stretchy pants since this summer and his shorts.  I didn't bother because they were so difficult to get on and off of his cloth diapered behind.  I knew he'd be in a ridiculously big size and I'd have to hem/roll up the legs like crazy.  My MIL keeps sending all these jeans, cords, etc in 2T, so I tried today to put something on him, seeing if I could find him a cute outfit for his party tomorrow.  

2T didn't work over the cloth diaper.  They fit him barely with a sposie on.  3T wasn't much better.  I remembered MIL sent Samuel some 4T jeans that were on sale, even though Sam won't wear 4T pants until next year at the earliest (he's still in 2-3T).  For sh!ts and giggles, I put them on Elijah.  Bam.  Perfect fit.  I rolled up the legs and sent him on his way. 

My one-year old officially wears bigger clothes than his almost 3 year old brother.  Indifferent

    He was 30.5 inches and 29.8 pounds at his 10 month check.  I haven't weighed him since, but I'm thinking a pound or so heavier than that.  

    I guess it makes sense. The weight guidelines on the 4T pants said 33-39 pounds, and I'm sure the cloth diaper mimicks at least 2 pounds of extra padding.  

    I need to take a picture and show you guys the rolled up pants.  It's the funniest thing ever.  I must have rolled up 7 inches of pants.

    Eli doesn't walk yet and I tell him everyday that he needs to start so mama can have a break.  It's rough, I'm not going to lie.  He goes into a stroller wherever we go.  I can't walk around carrying him.  By the end of the day, when I lift him into his crib for the final time, my arms are sore and I'm exhausted.  The upside, though, I have serious muscles on my right arm!

    Gymboree has jeans that run either 'husky' or 'slim'.  Maybe you could try to find a smaller size in the husky.  It may save some rolling : )

     

    He sure is beautiful
