Mini-moose outgrew his newborn clothes last week, so I'm finally giving in and packing them up. Red rocket ship jammies, I miss you already!

Seriously this kid has the coolest pajamas. Where in the world did you find all the rocket stuff?

Cute! The little man outgrew his newborn clothes really fast, too. :( Actually, he was born too big for some of them. He's a long baby.

It's so sad to see your favorites go, isn't it? Until you develop a new favorite in the next size up.

Oh, for us it was the "Red Apple" outfit that broke our hearts to pack away - so I didn't. I bought RJ a doll that was newborn baby sized and dressed it in the "Red Apple". Of course then one day we had an outbreak of scabies at day care and I had to pack away all of the dolls in a garbage bag for several weeks. My husband, not realizing the dolls weren't trash, threw out one of the bags - the one with "Red Apple" baby in it. I was so sad - still am!

Kiwi, the outfits came in a big pack from Kohls. Red rocket jammies, short-sleeved alien onesie, long-sleeved striped onesie, pants with alien heads on the feet, and a rocket ship bib. I think they're Carters. I found another alien onesie the same place. Maybe I'll have to go back and buy another set in a bigger size, but that feels like cheating.

He's a long, skinny(-ish) baby, so he was too long for the newborn Gerber clothes from birth and still swims in the 0-3 month stuff he needs now for length. He has no pants that currently fit in both length and waist. Grr...

I think I'm done tearing up over a silly piece of clothing now, at least.

I don't think we've actually bought anything in newborn size. Mo and Max were 8lb6oz and long when born. I've noticed that 0-3 size is larger than the newborn size. What's that about?

I love that Mini-Moose is playing his air guitar! Rock on little man.
