I think she will still be wearing some of her summer stuff this spring/early summer. I loaded up on sale stuff 12-18 mo. Oh, pre buying. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/same-size-following-year#post-2474536 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 13:20:09 +0000 ShootingStar 2474536@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think we'll be able to use a lot of his summer stuff from last year. He was in 2T for shorts and shirts, and I think the shorts should be fine on him, they all have stretchy waists I think. The shirts might be ok, some might be short on him. I'll have to go through everything, a lot of stuff took kind of a beating with stains from daycare. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/same-size-following-year#post-2474534 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 13:19:42 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2474534@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Last year ds had a lot of 2T stuff and he wasn't even 18 months yet. I tried it on and most everything fits! Woop! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/same-size-following-year#post-2474531 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 13:18:52 +0000 catlady 2474531@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not yet. Usually the most we can do is re-use stuff between fall and spring. I bought most of her outerwear this year in a size up so I'm hoping we can at least use those again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/same-size-following-year#post-2474529 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 13:17:01 +0000 delight 2474529@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes my DD's 2Ts from last summer still look like they will fit! The shorts were all too big last summer. She will be In a mix of 2t and 3t. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/same-size-following-year#post-2474528 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 13:16:39 +0000 mediagirl 2474528@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Some things and that is just happening now. But I bought size 4 dresses last year and they were big last year, will fit well this year. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/same-size-following-year#post-2474524 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 13:15:44 +0000 Purpledaisy 2474524@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. She's very petite and grows so slow! It's nice to be able to get tons of wear out of clothes though! She usually grows out of shirts first. Pants take forever. She will be 3 next week and can still wear her 9-12 month shorts from last year... I think she has shorter legs and a longer torso. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/same-size-following-year#post-2474220 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 11:45:25 +0000 Alivoo01 2474220@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Shorts/pants, he gets a bit more wear with them. Not shirts though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/same-size-following-year#post-2474188 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 11:40:12 +0000 yin 2474188@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes for certain clothes like shorts, swimsuits, and jackets. Sometimes shirts can last 2 summers as well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/same-size-following-year#post-2474184 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 11:38:30 +0000 MrsKoala 2474184@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, we're lucky if we can make it more than 3 or 4 months in one size! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/same-size-following-year#post-2474164 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 11:34:14 +0000 psw27 2474164@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Maybe some shorts, but I doubt it. LO is huge compared to last year! I'm thinking once he gets to 2 the growth might slow down a bit. He's so tall his shorts might be a little short on him if we re-use them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/same-size-following-year#post-2474129 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 11:21:42 +0000 QBbride 2474129@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, DS wore his summer clothes for 2 summers. They were 18m-24m clothing and he was 13-14 months the first summer and 25-26 months the next summer (and super small!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/same-size-following-year#post-2474090 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 11:12:41 +0000 Smurfette 2474090@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: I wish she would slow down! She doesn't seem that tall to me but all the 3T is getting short on her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/same-size-following-year#post-2474087 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 11:12:17 +0000 winniebee 2474087@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, we haven't been able to. T is almost 4 and now needs 4T tops and 3T bottoms (skinny!) We have to buy new stuff every season. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/same-size-following-year#post-2474085 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 11:11:34 +0000 Adira 2474085@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: haha, my kid is a midget. :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/same-size-following-year#post-2474082 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 11:10:20 +0000 LovelyPlum 2474082@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, not yet. We are getting between 1-2 seasons per size. She's transitioning fast between 24 months and 2T. I expect we will be in 2T-3T by the time it's warm enough here for summer clothes (June). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/same-size-following-year#post-2474065 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 11:05:48 +0000 Smurfette 2474065@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: R is outgrowing 3T already! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/same-size-following-year#post-2474064 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 11:05:18 +0000 Smurfette 2474064@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She was wearing 2T all last summer for the most part. Some hand me downs 3t at the end of the summer. She might be able to wear the shorts still. but she is about to outgrow her 3T winter clothes. I am buying 4t for this summer, especially dresses and shirts. I don't want her dresses or shorts too short. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/same-size-following-year#post-2474063 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 11:04:59 +0000 Adira 2474063@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For certain things, definitely. Xander's reusing all his 2T winter gear again this year, but for clothes, he's starting to outgrow his 2T shirts. I'm betting he'll wear 3T for two years though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/same-size-following-year#post-2474054 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 11:01:52 +0000 avivoca 2474054@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think H will be able to fit her shorts/capris from last year for a little while. Some of her shirts will fit too, but she has a long torso and really needs 2T shirts now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/same-size-following-year#post-2474042 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 10:58:27 +0000 lamariniere 2474042@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For DS, I buy tops and they usually fit for 2 years. Shorts have lasted 2 summers. </p> <p>With DD, her growth has been a lot more unpredictable, so I don't know yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/same-size-following-year#post-2474040 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 10:57:16 +0000 regberadaisy 2474040@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes for shorts because last year 3T was too small but 4T was just slightly too big. Dresses are being worn as tunics now with leggings. :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/same-size-following-year#post-2474038 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 10:55:48 +0000 Mamaof2 2474038@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS - yes for shorts</p> <p>DD- yes for shorts and dresses </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/same-size-following-year#post-2474035 Thu, 25 Feb 2016 10:55:03 +0000 Bao 2474035@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Has your LO been able to get two years of use out of clothes? For example if they were in 3-4T last summer, will they be able to use the same clothes this summer? </p> <p>LO1 was in 3-4T last summer, and I think they will fit this year too. 3T is getting small but all her 4T stuff fits well. With shorts and dresses I think it's easier to fit for longer. LO2 was in 24m-2T last summer and I thought for sure it wouldn't fit this year. I put on a romper and it has a good inch of space between diaper and snaps, so I think as long as she doesn't have a huge growth spurt some stuff can be used again. Fingers crossed! </p>
