Growing baby and baby clothing sizes.

It baffles my mind how babies differ sooooo much in sizes yet we still all buy baby clothing labeled by month.  Baby Clothing should all be labeled by height and weight.  My little boy is getting longer and longer everyday!  I know he is gaining weight too but not toooo much.  We went to the doctors about 1.5 weeks ago.  He is in the 98% for height and 60% for weight.  Now 6 month cloths do not fit him in length wise but weight he could get another few weeks out of.  I had to change him into all 9 month sleepers about 2 weeks ago.  I tried to keep a few 6 month sleepers out because they were clean and helped while I washed all the 9 month sleepers.  I feel it happened over night!!!!  His poor little legs were bent in the sleepers!  : (

So now my almost 7 month old is in all 9 month clothing!  A few of my mommy friends told me to cut the feet out of the sleepers to get some more time out of them.  While I see the point, I did not do it.  I feel this is my first kid, why not just have enough sleepers for each stage because my next kid will need sleepers too!!

I went out today and saw some cute outfits but they were only marked by month not weight and height.  I ended up not getting anything because each brand is so different.
This was my little vent for the day!

Sick Mommy

It took over a week but I finally caught my husband and son's cold.  This is the first time I have been really sick since having my son over 6 months ago.  The cold hit me like a truck.  I have been thinking though, maybe it didn't.  Maybe, (because I am a mom, my husband was away, and I had a ton of other things going on ), there were signs the whole week before and I just ignored them.  I thought I was doing everything to NOT get sick but I am.
SO now what do I do?  Even with an amazing husband, mommy does not get a sick day.  I took care of everything when my husband was sick.  I don't think men are wired like that.  My husband was away when I got sick.  After a night of no sleep because of a teething baby and sick me, my mom took the baby for a few hours on Sunday.  I slept and ran out to get more cold medicine.  I know how blessed I am, to have a mom who can help.  Once my husband came home, I was back in "mommy and wife mode."  I did cut back a little but there are no sick days for mommy!
