Not really:p

But thats what I thought for a while...Until my tired brain kicked in.

You see, he used to be quite a bit over the second from the top slots of the radian in my CRV. It just boogled me that the installation in a different vehicle could cause him to be under those slots now, esp since he just had a growth spurt...

Then it hit me, DUH! We stopped using cloth and went back to disposables.

Really, I though I was going nuts for a few days.

LOL

We go back and forth between cloth, sposies and underwear so you can imagine the torso changes happening here. :rolleyes:

But actually, DS's torso did appear to shrink once (we were using exclusively sposies at the time, so no butt padding there) and all I can figure is it was because he went from very chubby to very skinny in like 2 months. His chunky little butt got all flat and he lost a good 1/4", if not more. :p

You might be on to something, he just stretched out 2-3 ins and gained 3 lbs, but then lost the 3 lbs so now he is even skinnier.

Before he thinned out, DS had to wear 3T clothes just so he'd have enough room in the waist and after he thinned out, he can fit into 18 month shorts :eek: and I have to put a belt on his 3T pants to hold them up. He grew taller *and* lost weight (though he's finally starting to gain back). He doesn't even look like the same kid!
