I can second the used kids stores. They blow through sizes so quickly - Maddie did once in a day - literally I went to change her and couldn't get the jammies back on her. A lot of the stuff is barely worn or new. We spent lots of time there.

Oh and things that work on all kids - might not work on yours. They suggest you wrap the baby tightly, like a burrito, in their blankets when they're really small. Yeah if you wanted to hear Madz cry from space you could do that. It would totally piss her off. Other kids love it. She still doesn't sleep under the covers much. Her dad was always re-covering her and she'd kick it off. The Pediatrician explained that we don't live in Antartica, if she's cold she'll let you know otherwise don't worry. She still hates anything on her feet when she sleeps as well.

Also if you have friends/family that have kids a littler older they may have things for you. I got a ton - literally from a friend who was done having more. In turn the Swanies got two carloads of stuff after Maddie started growing. Eveyone's happy to get rid of stuff.

We had something similar happen. We were late getting home from some event and I just put Amy to bed with totally undressing her and waking her up. It was sooo late and I was sooo tired.

The next morning the shirt wouldn't fit over her head. After struggling with it and her crying I finally just cut the darn thing off. It's not like she was ever going to wear it again - and why torture her trying to get it off in one piece.

They really do grow - even just overnight.

Okay, is the Ghoulish Pair registered anyplace yet?
