winter shopping

thursday night my mom gave tobe this cuuuutte little outfit, but it was a size 6 months and i though, "sheesh, this is too big and it'll be cold before he can wear it." so when i got home i tried it on him just for kicks. and to my surprise, and later concern, it fit! not a-little-to-big fit or a just-right-fit, but a one-more-week-until-it's-too-small fit. so i dropped everything and ran to toby's dresser to survey it's contents. sure enough i had been subconsciously making piles of fit vs. doesn't fit clothing inside. the pile of doesn't fit had quickly overwhelmed the left side of the top draw. later that night, before i had a chance to communicate my panic to rodney, we saw a news story about a huge consignment event. rodney must-a read my mind when he offered to take me to shop for winter clothes for the baby. so this is where we spent our friday morning, sans children, and we had a blast! now, toby is set for the coming winter months. . . . hopefully.
