Well, it's official: my kids did get taller over the summer and are skinnier than ever. But not for a lack of eating! I know some of you family members like to get the kids clothes. This is very much appreciated, but we have a lot of some things and not enough of others. So, if you are inclined to purchase clothing items for Will and Xan this fall and winter, here are the sizes and what they could really use:
Will
Will is in a size 12 slim jean. Old Navy seems to fit him the best and don't shrink up as bad as other brands. Do not by loose-fitting jeans, they just bag up. Will would love some long pants, jeans and cargos. He is a 10/12 in shirts and could really use some nice long sleeve, button-down and polo shirts. He is drowning in long sleeved tees. His shoe size is 6.5 mens. Not the easiest size to find, but he has two pairs of sneakers now (thanks Aunt Jill! See the video below), so he should be good. He's got new underwear, too.
Xan
Xan is in a size 7 SLIM jean. And I mean slim. Old Navy seems to fit him best, also, for the same reason as Will. This are pretty baggy on him already, since he is a twig, but the length is great. He is fine on pants. Actually, he is fine on everything because we have a bunch of Will's hand-me-downs. The only thing he might need in the pants area is one or two pairs of jeans for school. We have some new ones, but the hand-me-downs from Will have holes in the knees - that was Will's sliding-across-the-floor-on-his-knees stage in life. But shirts (he's a size 6), PJs, etc., he is just fine. He is also doing well with size 13 shoes. He has three pairs. And he also got new underwear.
