The Traveling Sleeper











all us sisters have put our babies in this sleeper. we call it the baby who outfit. it looks like something a dr.suess character would wear. i know i have a picture of aidan in it, but its packed away in a box still. this sleeper is newborn size. melanie swore she gave it to me when i was pregnant with Keekee. I moved the week before i had Keekee,so i had packed and unpacked all my stuff, the sleeper was not in my possession, but everyone assumed i lost it. last week mom found it at her house and mailed it to me ASAP in hopes that somehow i could shove keekee in it and not break tradition. well, i didn't think it could be done, but with a little stretching and shoving, i got her in it, took a few pictures and took it back off her to mail to Lynn for little Lucy. What a weird tradition we have going. at least keekee won't be cursed for not taking her turn!
the babies are halle (has the red bow in her hair), trevor next to her. james and then adam and kiera is the bottom pic.

We had a yellow outfit that we stuffed each of our kids in, to come home from the hospital. It was adorable. We'd take a picture of each of them in that yellow outfit their first day home! When Lori was born (at 11 pounds, 6.5 ounces) it boardered on child abuse stuffing her into that but we did it! Gotta keep with the traditions!! After she was born we packed away the "newborn" cloths and the "basinet". Unfortunately, she didn't fit in EITHER!oH YEAH, in case you're wondering, it was "called" natural childbirth, although there is nothing NATURAL about giving birth to a toddler.
