Day 347 : Clothes-ing Up

Sadie -

Your continued tremendous growth has left us with a bit of a problem: you are too big for your clothes. Over the past few weeks, mom and I have had to put aside shirt after pants after dress that you just can't squeeze into anymore. With your birthday gifts still a few weeks away, we were starting to wonder, "What are we going to dress Sadie in?!"

Then your Aunt Amy called last night.

It seems that when your Cousin Jasmine was your size, she not only had some clothes of her own, she was given a tremendous amount of hand-me-downs. Your Uncle Steve volunteered to bring these clothes by on his way into his job. We were expecting some clothes - but he arrived with bag after box after bag of beautiful, cute, clean clothes - that most importantly were in your size!

Mom has now loaded up your shelves with all of these new outfits. You even wore one of them to school today. (It was an adorable little black and white dress! Mom said you looked British in it!)

It is great to have a generous Aunt and Cousin, huh?

Give them extra hugs next time you see them...

- Dad
