When Lily was about a week old, I found this adorable jacket at Macy's. Not knowing what size she would be during the winter, I bought it in size 3-6 months. Then winter came, and the jacket didn't fit--It was much too big! It stayed hanging up in Lily's closet, with the tags still attached, for more than a year.
Recently, I rediscovered the coat and was bummed that she never had the chance to wear it! I also had to laugh because the jacket was $42.00 (but I got it for 15% or 20% off) when I purchased it...but now I would never spend that much on a white coat--knowing how quickly kids grow and how easily things get stained! Ah, what a difference a year makes in the life of a new parent!
As I moved her outgrown clothes down to the basement for storage, I took another look at the jacket and decided to try it on her. Much to my surprise, it fits perfectly!
