I don't think I was ready for this time to come. Nicholas needed bigger underwear (and socks). Elmo and Diego were getting a little small. I went to the new Wal-Mart by work on Friday to score some new underwear and socks for the kid.
He no longer fits the toddler section. How did that happen seemingly overnight? I had to go the boys section for size 4 underwear and size 10-2 socks. And I even ended up with a pack of solids and camouflage underwear to top it off - no characters! (He was totally stoked, by the way.)
So I was okay about it. It's just underwear and socks, right?
Saturday we went to the mall for tennis shoes for the boys. Travis had beaten his up pretty good. Nicholas only had his Vans which were too flat and clunky and he ran goofy in them. They had their feet measured. Of course they had both grown. Nicholas has moved on to the kids shoe section! Aacckk. I was bummed. And he was even more bummed. Shoes with real laces! Adrian helped him pick out a cool pair - you know, that would make him run faster.
Nicholas is becoming a big boy. I knew he was growing but the thought of shopping in the kids section hadn't occurred to me yet. But maybe, just maybe, I think he might be able to wear 4T pants in the fall and we can still get some bargains in the toddler section. It's too early to tell. We might be in a full on transition to the boys section.
