And with all those fluids circulating, there's bound to be leakage. He's kind of in between premie and newborn sized diapers. Most of his newborn sized clothes are still too big. So, we've had some emergency shopping trips by Grammie Debbie and Aunt Punchy for a few pieces of premie clothes to tide him over. But frequent leakage + limited wardrobe = frequent laundry days. In explaining this predicament to my mom, bless her, she offered to make him some pants, which were the top priority need of the moment. She used a pattern she had for sizes Premie - 24 months. She whipped up 2 over night, with 3 more pairs to follow a few days later.
Did she measure him? Why bother - how much variation could there be to patterns for premie pants?
Thus, the birth of Webber's "Hammer Pants", named after the unfortunately dressed rapper of the 90s, M.C. Hammer.
The purple fleece ones are his most Hammerific, on account of their extra bulk.
I will say again, bless my mom. It was just an unfortunately sized pattern.
Too bad he couldn't show us some dance moves while modeling the Hammer Pants. Maybe when he gets older.
Nicky, Nate and Webber
