Pull Out the Footie PJs

All summer long, I had to hide the fuzzy footie pajamas from the kids because in ninety degree weather they would insist on wearing them for whatever reason and then spend half the night complaining how hot they were and would inexplicable refuse to change into light summer pjs or simply wear undies and a tank top or something. Bonkers. 

It's getting colder. Today on a car ride, my son and I started a new fall game: "Yellow! I see yellow leaves," I would shout. Super excited to have seen the colors morphing beyond the green we've been seeing all this long hot summer. 

Of course, he didn't quite get the game because he would keep yelling in between the red and orange spottings, "Green! I see a lot of green leaves, Mommy!" 

We still have a way to go, but they are changing and they will probably all be aflame soon! But that means we've been pulling out the socks and the sandals have made their migration to the back of the closet and the footie pajamas have been revealed once again. 

So, what was my daughter wearing last evening? A flimsy summer nightgown. And tonight at dinner she had the nerve to complain about how cold she has been in the night. How she needs more blankets. 

Hm. I'm fairly certain that it's the wardrobe choices that are the problem. Now to find a hiding spot for the summer pjs...
