Lee is very sweet to always be thinking of the kids. It's one of the things I love about him- he can't help but spoil them. But this gift made me laugh.... He said he was at the store and saw there were a bunch of kids outfits clearanced to $3 a piece. What a steal! He bought Will an 18 month Thomas the Train outfit. It's cute, a little big, but he'll grow into it.
Then I noticed Amy's outfit. It was a size 3T. I said, "Lee, you got the wrong size." He said, "They didn't have anything bigger, so I got the biggest one they had." I said, "But Lee, she's almost 5, she wears a FIVE." He said, "Well, it'll be tight, but it was only THREE dollars!!!"
He was really, really excited about his deal. Oh dear. I think I truly have married my father.

It is tight. The pants are flush with her skin. I don't know how she gets them on and off. But her daddy bought it for her, so she wears it proudly. Although- we do make her wear it as pajamas.
So thank you Lee for thinking of our wonderful children. But I am grateful that you didn't buy me anything. Who knows what I would have wound up with! We love you!! :)
the shirt fits at least
ReplyDeleteNever can have enough PJ's. We are headed back home. It has been a wonderful and event filled trip. Yes, you married your father in many many ways, but it worked out great for me, it will be great for you too. Love ya! Oh, this is your mother speaking not GRAM.
ReplyDeleteHow cute. New pajamas are always good. Love always.
ReplyDeleteHahahaha! That's hilarious! It's still pretty cute--kinda looks like leggings and a long shirt. I can't stop giggling.
ReplyDeleteWhat fun--having Dad find a bargin! Kids grow so fast anyhow it is hard to figure out the right size they wear. You at least tried. Both Amy and Will look pleased and that's what counts. Love to you all, Gram
ReplyDeletePS It's really quiet around here without your Mom and Dad. I like it better when someone is here. Loved every minute!!!
