Nearly every pair of jeans had gigantic holes in the knees.
A little hole in the knee can pass as rugged/cool, but when it's a seam-to-seam hole it just looks homely.
I don't know why I even bothered storing those jeans.
On top of that, the few jeans that were in decent shape, no longer fit the boys.
Luke apparently went through quite the growth spurt and half of his size 8s are too short for him. Josh Oliver has to really suck it in to get into the 5T slims, which is pretty much all of them.
The only one who was doing alright was Henry--the boy who wears uniforms everyday.
After about a week, I got so fed up that I got rid of almost all their jeans and replaced them with nice, new, dark ones.
While I was at it, I also had to buy them all new tennis shoes and church shoes.
Apparently, they've all had quite the growth spurts over the last few months. (Josh jumped 3 full sizes, so I'm not exactly sure how he was even getting his old shoes on!)
It's nice to think that the boys are now set until spring, but in reality, I give them about a month or so before I start to see holes appearing again.
Plus, Luke's shoes only made it one week before the ends of the shoelaces completely disintegrated from being walked on.
Seriously!
Seven days!
