a Productive day, but ugh to children's clothing sizes

We had a very productive day, I got 2 loads of laundry done, the dishes are washing as I type, and I got to Target to get some much needed items for feeding Matthew. My big project was to go through Matthew's clothes and to get the 3-6 month clothes and whatever 0-3 months stuff still lingering in the closet into boxes..and I pulled out all the 6-9 month clothes..here is where I got super frustrated...so Matthew is around 15lbs and 24-25inches long....he is really skinny so the 0-3 month pants and shorts are what he wears with his shirts...I have all sorts of cute 3-6 months pants but they are for the most part too big in the waist. As I am pulling out the 6-9 month stuff, I notice that Carter's has 6-9 months as 12.5-16lbs and 24-26.5 inches vs some other brands are 6-9 months are 16-20lbs and 27-29inches...come on...so most of the stuff that is Carter is basically going to only fit Matthew for about 1-2 lbs and 1-2inches more?? This totally frustrates me...but the silver lining is b/c he is skinny, maybe the pants//shirt separates I can get more use out of despite the weight/height...

Here is my 2 cents, these kids clothes need to get standardized...every brand should be the same in my opinion...make it easier for us tired moms.

otherwise a good day, Matthew's 2 bottom teeth are coming in nicely and we got tooth paste today to start the habit of good oral care.
