The Budget Conscious Momma

Most folks who see Anders and Jorja on a regular basis know that I tend to purchase oversized clothing for them. There's this frugal impulse that seems to take hold of me when I'm in the midst of buying them clothing. Questions begin to swirl around in my head. Does the temporary inconvenience of rolled-up sleeves and pant legs really warrant the purchase of a smaller, soon to be out-grown, size? Is the extra toe room in these new sneakers going to stunt the progress of this child's mobility? Is the largeness of this new parka going to inadvertently suffocate this child? Of course not.

And here they are blissfully frolicking around the yard in their oversized parkas and one and a half sizes too big sneakers.
