The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

The good news: Braylon's appetite seems to have improved recently (not that it was ever horrible, but he has been cleaning his plate at most meals for the last couple of weeks) and he is growing like crazy!
The bad news: Braylon is outgrowing all of his size 3T clothes...his pants and the arms of his shirts are too short. I have been searching the stores for the hard to find size 4 slim as all of Bray's growth has occurred up and down and not around his skinny little waist. And he has outgrown his shoes. We just had to buy him some new size 10 shoes. It is hard to believe that he was wearing a size 4 shoe when he turned two. In that summer he jumped from a 4 to an 8 and he has been in an 8-9 since. His feet are crazy. They stay the same forever, then grow like wild.
The Ugly: The above shoes which Braylon HAD to have. I have just never been a big fan of character shoes-too bulky and busy. Up until age 3.5 and size 10, I had been able to pick out what I liked. Nice simple, solid color shoes. Those days are now officially over. Hello Velcro.
