Hand me downs

This picture just makes me laugh! We have been very blessed to have a generous family that has given Eli all of their son's clothes as he grows out of sizes. This has been a huge help! This summer, though, we have discovered a new danger in hand me downs, since this is the first time he has not worn one piece PJs. After a few children have worn them, there is generally not much elastic left in pajama pants. Since our cloth diapers for overnight are larger than our day time diapers, this is generally not a huge problem. However, the first few times that Eli wore them, he would begin playing in the morning and as he woke up more and became more active, this inevitably was the result. The first time it happened he was shocked. Then it just made him laugh. And rest assured, I have since replaced the elastic in these pajamas. It is no longer a problem.
