What do ya do??

Last Friday I met Megan as she got off the bus. I noticed something tied around her waist. It was a rope looped through her pants. I did not send her to school with a rope belt. Hmmmm. I asked her why she had a rope for a belt and she looked at my very sheepishly and said that today was PE day and she was running around and her pants fell down. Poor little thing! Apparently the adjustable waist was pulled so tight it broke. I swear I feed my kids, but you might not believe me after this next story................
I picked Katelyn up from Awana's last Wednesday and she immediately showed me her owie on her knee. I picked her up and she buried her head in my shoulder seemingly embarrassed about something. The kind lady that worked in her classroom told me that during game time, they were running around the gym and and her skirt fell down and she tripped.

Seriously, both kids....same situation, same week! So, I'm still trying to fatten them up! Here Kate....lick that spoon!

Oh my!! Diapers are always sure to keep Brenton's pants up... maybe they need to start wearing those? Totally kidding! Poor girls! Sounds like its time for belts and elastic waist pants. Oohhh... winters coming and leggings would stay up. Maybe your girls could just wear dresses and leggings. Nothing to fall down then!

We don't have that problem here!!

Do belts help?

or how about some suspenders?
I used to have a pair of the Mork rainbow ones!

Poor muffins but totally adorable! Be glad it's embarassing. My girl has a few outfits that fall down when she jumps or dances. She thinks it's funny. I'm working on her! But it's so hard not to laugh too.

thanks ladies..I will take all your suggestions into consideration...for now, both have informed me they will NEVER wear the skirt and pants that caused the commotion!

i agree with those leggings... poor sweetums... too funny - i think you need a special scrapbook page for "sisters whose pants fall down" to remember this by :)
