Well, thank you!! Cuz today I've felt like nothing but a big grump and then worse/guilty because of it!!!
I've either wanted to yell or cry all day. I guess it's just one of those days. *sigh* Tomorrow - I hope it dawns nicely.
I do have plans to go hang out for a little bit with a girlfriend of mine, so that will be nice. Well... it should be...
Sorry, but by definition, there's no "foolproof" way to guesstimate anything.
Adjustable waist pants/shorts are always nice if you can find them. The recent Cherokee jeans at T that went 75% off all had them.
It does seem to get a *little* easier to plan after they get a little older. I've been fairly lucky so far buying DS1 (who turns 8 in a couple weeks) "the next size up" -- whatever that might be. At T, that's been a size 8 in pants and a size L in shirts. (Although I just bought a pair of 75% off size 10 shorts with -- you guessed it! -- an adjustable waist.
But DS2, who's two-and-a-half? No such luck. He's big for his age, but often falls inbtw sizes or has a growth spurt at the worst time (at least wrt clothes). But, if you can get them cheap enough, even if 2-3 items end up not working out, you're still saving money compared to buying them full price "in season."
HTH -- a little.
My littlest one has been lethargic today and has had a fever, gradually getting worse. While I was at SW, hubby called and said it was 103.4.
And that is SO hilarious about that reporter and coupons! Thanks, Smeg, for pointing out that lovely post.

Ahhhhhhhhh, thanks for the tips gals. I need to remember to make sure to save back the stuff from this summer too - I bet over half of it will end up fitting next year. At least the tops. I dunno about the pants but I seem to be finding plenty of cheap bottoms at T. lately - usually it's tops that I find more of. That's why this all came about...pretty decent markdowns here today for her sizes. And all of a sudden I was standing there holding stuff up trying to figure out what size I was gonna buy.
And on the topic of clothing why don't they make more Toy Story stuff that's geared toward girls?? I feel like my home has been invaded by boy stuff

Thankfully, we have enough kids at our church that someone usually has some kind of hand-me-downs to share if we can't make it through a season.

Kind of related- just before ds#1 turned 3, we took him on a roller coaster. He met the minimum height requirement of 42 inches tall. Ds#1 is the exact same age in months now and is 2 inches shorter than his brother was, and a good 7 lbs less. He looks like a shrimp compared to the older kids.
flugette, hope your dd is feeling better soon.
btw too bad some of you with younger/ smaller kids don't live nearby. I have lots of Rubbermaid crates of kids clothing in my basement. I really need to have a garage sale.

Two sets of closet rods worked well for me , cut the closet in half length wise , one rod about three feet below the other.( I used one of those pressure shower curtain rods , that pushes against both walls) didn't need dh to install it lol hung everything that didn't fit yet on hangers sorted by size worked like a charm.
