Sizing up Baby's 1st Christmas

  

The holiday shopping season is in full swing, and this Grammy got an early start. I hit the stores even before Black Friday hit us. (And I skipped the crowds that day!)

 Like any enthusiastic grandparent with an adorable grandbaby, I was immediately drawn to a display of “My 1^st Christmas” pajamas and other festive outfits. I began clicking through the tiny plastic hangers, looking for just the right size.

 What a disappointment.

 To my dismay, all they had were the 24-month size – in their entire collection of “My 1^st Christmas” apparel.

 That struck me as funny. Just how big are those babies?

Under the Weather

Is someone airing a little dirty laundry here? Hey, eventually, it all comes out in the wash, anyway.

Some parents push their kids into rigorous fitness regimens. Maybe this little guy’s folks thought he needed washboard abs.

Operator. Information. Get me someone on the line.

Perhaps it’s time to pin down those parents and iron out what happened here. Most of us would be basket cases, if this happened to our kids.

And that’s a wrap, Jack.

Hung up on hand-me-ups

Ssh! Don’t tell. I’m pilfering my kid’s closet again.

Yeah, I know real grownups aren’t supposed to go out in public in those strappy stretch camisoles, racerback singlets, or  little ribby tank tops. But the colors are fabulously fun. And those little undershirts fit nicely under bigger over-shirts.

Maybe those tiny teen shirts can be almost tasteful, if they are worn beneath other garments. (You didn’t really think I’d wear them without layering, did you? OK, maybe only for running.)

So, if my kids can raid my sock drawer, I can snatch up a tank top now or then. It’s only fair.

Just don’t spill the beans. And I’ll try not to spill out of – oh, never mind.
