the hat. it no longer fits.
this is a very sad day around here... the hat has been p-ray's trademark for quite some time. but it has gotten to the point where it leaves red marks on his forehead when he wears it & that can't be good, right? we don't wanna restrict his brain/head growth or something, i guess. so the hat has been retired.
why do we get so emotionally attached to our kids' items? i'm sure parker couldn't care less. we bought another hat for him in the next size up but it's just not the same {we couldn't find the exact same hat in toddler size. boo.} but maybe this new one will grow on me. we'll see.

NO!!!! I love that hat!! Oh, it will be sadly missed!
ReplyDeleteoh sad day!! he looks so adorable in that hat!! it will definitely be missed for sure!
ReplyDeleteI know exactly what you mean. I am getting things ready for consignment and I keep staring at these white sneakers of Rebecca's that she wore for a short time, I just want to take them and put them away because they were really her first walking shoes. I did keep the real first pair of shoes, but there is something about these sneakers that I may not be able to part with.
ReplyDeleteOmg. I wanna squeal over that baseball bat picture. This is too cute. Sad that the hat is too small. :/
ReplyDeleteOh no! I would be heartbroken too... hang in there mama!
ReplyDeleteoh that is so sad!
ReplyDeleteOkay the funny thing? Looking at all of Parker's outfits in these pictures.. Bennett has like almost all those same clothing items. Except the hat. I need to get a new M's hat for Bennett, too. He grew out of his last summer. Although, he doesn't wear hats on a regular basis so I wasn't super sad about it. ha ha.
ReplyDeleteAwwww, that hat is so cool! Here's to hoping the next hat grows on you too.
ReplyDeletei have braedens newborn clothes still. i just cannot part with them.
ReplyDeleteim still impressed you got him to keep that hat on his head. i tried. failed. and gave up.
Awww! It was TOTALLY his trademark :(
ReplyDeleteOh no!!! Save it for him for his future kiddos... that is his trademark hat!
ReplyDeleteI'm pouring out a little coffee in P's hat's honor.
ReplyDeleteawww, sad day!! i have gotten attached to my kids clothes/things too. those are the ones i put in keep sake boxes for them. :)
ReplyDeleteI remember that is how I felt about your little red & white infant Nike's!
ReplyDeleteAt least you have all of those cute photos of him in it! Now you can take lots of cute photos of him in his new hat!!
ReplyDeleteHe defiantly is the cutest little guy especially in that hat! You got a good collection of photos tho. so you will always remember! I can't wait to see the next one.
ReplyDeletei can't picture him without a hat!!
ReplyDeletethat is his trademark!
