Party Animals

Our boys are growing way too quickly. It's disturbing me. I've tried to will the time to slow down or even stop. Maybe it's because I know they are our last babies and so every week that they grow it's the last time a child of ours will be that small, or that helpless, or that innocent, or have that exact look. I can't stand it.

"Hi sweet boysyboysys, don't look so serious."

"That's better sweet babybubbies; after all, your shirt says it all..."

Speaking of these shirts... I came across this little t-shirt from Old Navy. It had the tags still on in size 3-6 months. I have a weird ability to remember exactly where each item of clothing (toys too!) came from and who, if anyone, gave it to us. My memory is absolutely awful but in this way it's remarkable. I'll never understand it. Anyway, I came across this shirt and I thought it was cute but I can't remember who gave it to us!? It is the perfect size for one of them to wear now. They don't have many clothes so I wanted a duplicate so they would match. One late night I randomly typed in "Old Navy Party Animal shirt 3-6 months" on eBay. Lo and behold there was the exact shirt being sold for $3. What are the odds that someone had this exact tshirt in the exact size I needed and listed it (new with tags) on eBay at the exact time I needed it? Crazy. Anyway, I contacted the seller and asked if she could put a "Buy It Now" button on the auction so I could have the shirt sooner than later and she obliged. I got the match in the mail and only spent $4 including shipping. A bargain if I must say so myself.

Slow down little party animals. You're growing up way too fast for Mommy's liking.
