I'll have to remember this because my little girl only grows up and not out and has weighed 38 pounds since she was 4 (she's almost 6). We've found that GAP 5slim fit her the best, but the one pair she has was bought by my mother. I just can't bring myself to spend $25 dollars on a pair of jeans for a little girl.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6431546681992202722.post-12462206361074512992007-09-21T00:46:00.000-07:002007-09-21T00:46:00.000-07:00you are sooooooooo smart!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!her SMILE ...you are sooooooooo smart!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<BR/>her SMILE says it all. tooooooo cute.<BR/><BR/>i have a pair of jeans that i cannot get let go off. the problem is they're a size16 and I'm a size 10 now. *sigh**Tanyetta*https://www.blogger.com/profile/14339189484151758472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6431546681992202722.post-60066669114962753552007-09-20T03:46:00.000-07:002007-09-20T03:46:00.000-07:00What a nifty idea.

Had I only known...<BR/>My DD is a little one, too. She will be 11 in a few weeks, and her size 7s fit in the waist, but not lengthwise. Today she measured 54" tall and 62lbs. I hope she stays that way instead of ending up fluffy like me.Tracey in CThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01172273610231927352noreply@blogger.com
