Cole has a far bigger wardrobe than he needs. I thought I'd need so much more than I actually do, especially since I still do laundry at least once a week. Here's what I've learned he actually needed in each size...
6-8 Sleepers (he pees through at night, otherwise I could get by with 4-5)
3-4 pairs of pants that go with many shirts/onesies
8-10 onesies and/or shirts
5 pairs of socks
1-2 "outfits" that all go together
1 sun hat
1-2 swimsuits with rashguards (weather permitting/appropriate)
2 winter hats
1 sweatshirt/jacket if seasonally appropriate
Now here's what he has that fits him right now when he's in a few sizes at once...
14-16 sleepers
9 pairs of pants
26 onesies and/or shirts
17 pairs of socks
6 pairs of shoes
4 "outfits" if you include the short sets that fit but he can't wear due to weather
2 swimsuits and 1 rashguard
2 pairs of sunglasses
1 sunhat
4 winter hats
2 sweatshirts/jackets
I think it's a little overkill...granted a lot of it is because he's between sizes so lots of things fit right now, but I have a hard time picking what he will wear, because I have favorites I want him to wear over and over again, but also don't want there to be things he never wears!
Moral of the story: if you are shopping for a new baby, do NOT buy so much so stuff! If you get too much as gifts, exchange them!
