I can't wait for the day when Ana and Evangeline are the same size, really.

Right now they're *close* to the same size, but not exactly, which causes no end of frustration. It'll be simpler when they share the same clothes.

Ana has no long sleeved shirts that fit. Evangeline has no *pants* that fit. I know, you're asking "How can that be?" Well, I'll tell you how it can be - because Ana spent so long in 3T pants that when she finally outgrew them I headed online and, lured by the promise of adjustable waistbands, bought immediately into size 5! Evangeline, of course, is a size 4 or even 4T (bigger waist) in pants, and we have none of those at all.

But we've got plenty of shirts for her for winter next year - Ana outgrew 3T shirts long before she outgrew 3T pants.

Maelle is going straight into the clothes Kira just outgrew. Out of one drawer and into the next. We had all 18 month size SHORTS and Ts though, and only 2T pants and long sleeves. All the next size short sleeves are 3T. The kids are just in opposite seasons, so I still have to buy clothes. :P

I really came here to recite a poem to you though. I just was reading Kira good night poetry and read her this poem by Jack Prelutsky:

An Unassuming Owl

An unassuming owl,
having little else to do,
remarked within the darkness
a discreet and subtle

A self-important owl,
puffed and pompous in the gloom,
responded with an overblown
and condescending "WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!"

I remember that one :)

Heh. A friend gave me all her daughters' old dresses and such, 24 month, 2T and 3T sizes (her younger one was then in 4's). Annika started wearing the 24m and 2T by the time she was 5 months old, and the 3T by 8 months old.
