I am sad thinking about some favorite outfits that Braydon will never wear again. It's fun to think about the significance and memories clothes offer! I've been storing and organizing last week and was thinking about his newborn onesies that I just loved.
For instance, he had this green one with a little dinosaur on it and it said 'Lil Stomper'. So, we often referred to him as our Lil Stomper (and still sometimes do).
He had a cute monkey one from Sarah, a cute one with owls, one with doggies, a fun Christmas fleece one...sigh. I even remember the outfit we put on him when we took him home from the hospital!
Bryon bought him a green pilot hat while we were still in the hospital to wear since it was cold. It was so cute! We referred to him as a little pilot...but it doesn't fit anymore :( That was a sad day when we realized it was too small. (Yet, of course, there are great blessings with his "growing up". I've gotten more sleep and sanity, for one).
They are all just adorable and even more, he was adorable in them. And he was so small!
I've been walking through some grieving as he continues to grow out of clothes that I've grown attached to. And there's so many more years to come!! But, onward we go.

hang in there, mommie... he'll be wearing a lot more cute outfits... but I understand what you are saying :(
totally understand....not one of the fun parts. i just had to break out 3 year old clothes for zion and thought, "no way her legs are that long", and sure enough, they fit her just right :(
