Just a Suggestion

When buying baby clothes for a shower or baby gift it's a good idea to buy larger than newborn size so they won't grow out of the clothes so fast. However, when buying for future use, it's a good idea to make sure you get clothes for the appropriate season. Say you buy an outfit size 6-9 months and in 6 months it will be February - you don't want to buy them shorts and a tank top!

I just put this out there because until I became pregnant I never would have thought anything about this. I generally bought larger sizes so they could get more use out of the clothes, but I never gave any thought to whether the clothes I picked would be appropriate for the season they would end up being used for. I have gotten some really adorable clothes from a lot of people but some of them may never get worn because who's going to put shorts and a tank top on a baby in February? Not me!
