Oh no they di-int!

Bean can unzip zippers and unsnap snaps like a pro, and lately it seems that she enjoys doing those things so much, that she’ll relieve her pyjamas of their duties at the expense of being cold, just to get some practice in.
It turns out that two-piece, zipper-free, snap-free pyjamas for 17-month-old girls are not very popular, because I can’t find any. I did have a set of pink jams with little white poodles on them, but they’re size 3T. With nothing else to try, I put them on her.
And they fit.
What?!
I can only assume they shrunk. I got them used from another mom, so maybe they used to be 3T and now they aren’t, but the tag doesn’t self-update… right? Right? My little girl can’t possibly be a size 3T! She’s like 20 pounds!


In the states, pull-on cotton jammies are required to be snug fitting. You know, so that your child does not spontaneously combust in their sleep. Violet has a pair that are a size 6 (she’s only 4) and the wrist and ankle cuffs were so tight I had to cut them off. So, no they probably didn’t shrink, but they probably aren’t “snug” enough to be safe.
