Thoughts on Pajamas

Leah is getting big.

In fact she is so big that she must now wear two-piece pajamas to bed. For some reason, this seems like a big milestone to Darcey and me.

We went shopping for clothes this weekend and pajamas were at the top of our list. Most of you know about our house's "insulation problem" which is almost as bad in the summer as it is in winter. The house just gets hot. The new windows in our bedrooms are nice and the ceiling fans are great, but it's still a bit warm for sleeping so we wanted to get some light-weight sleepwear.

I guess they still make footie pajamas for children her size, but they are just hard to find. She's 8-months-old (yesterday) and is wearing clothes for 12-month-olds. So as we browsed the children's section of Target, we had to kind of guess where she is now and where she will be by the end of the summer. She weighs about 22-lbs which I assume will plateau a bit once she starts crawling, but it's just hard to gauge how big she we will be in three months.

I really can't believe how quickly Leah has grown and how quickly the last eight months have gone by. I mean she's almost crawling which means she's almost walking, talking, talking back, driving, graduating, getting married…

I guess I shouldn't put so much weight on pajamas, but being as how this family spends a lot of time lounging, it's kind of hard not to.
