Children seem to change clothing sizes while they are asleep. You give birth to this little, tiny baby who swims in the newborn sizes and then before you know it, they are wearing 12 months, then 24 months and then they are in toddler land. My son’s 4T jeans fit just fine one day, and then they were an inch too short the next day. He grew taller before I could even blink. Cooler weather was upon us and I couldn’t send my son to school in shorts. He’d freeze, and then what kind of mother would I be? But I didn’t have time to go to the store between being taxi driver, cook, housekeeper, tutor, nanny and all the other hats I wear. Besides, I needed a particular type of jean, not just the first thing I could pull off the rack. My son is very thin so I have to purchase adjustable waist jeans to make sure they don’t fall off his small frame.
Luckily, I was able to go to www.kidsclothing.ca at 11 p.m. and get exactly what I was looking for. There were jeans from GAP, Old Navy, Children’s Place, Osh Kosh and more, and my purchase shipped to me within 48 hours of my order. Since my son has grown too tall for the toddler sizes, I was confused about the difference between the 4T and size 4 pants. Thanks to the sizing chart at Growing Growing Gone, I was able to understand the height and weight that each size is recommended for and pick the perfect jean for my son. I didn’t have to worry any longer about him sitting down at school and showing three inches of his leg. After all, we all know how children can be teased by their peers and that’s the last thing I wanted for my little guy.
