Summer PJs

It's summer time and the temperatures are soaring. Fuzzy, footed winter pajamas are retired and light weight cotton pajamas are moved into the pajama bins. Whenever we change out the pajamas there's a little bit of trauma when we give Bentley's old favorite pajamas to Jake. On the happy side, Bentley gets new pajamas! Here he is modeling a pair of his new pajamas:


Some of Bentley's new pajama bottoms are a little long for him. We've moved him into 4Ts (he is four after all!) because Jake needs the 3Ts. Bentley fits a 4T fine except for the leg length which is absurd. Fortunately he likes the extra long pajama bottoms because he can wrap them over his heel. (See photo above.)

Bentley is the perfect build for children's summer pajamas which are cut for very slim children. It has something to do with fire danger. Is fire a greater danger at night than during the day?! Children's regular clothing isn't cut so form fitting.

Yes, fire is a greater danger during the traditional pajama wearing hours. I googled the topic and learned this: "Children are most at risk from burn injuries that result from playing with fire (matches, lighters, candles, burners on stoves) just before bedtime and just after rising in the morning." Huh? Young pyromaniacs do their thing just before bed or right after getting up?! Seriously?!! Is it a lack of parental supervision during those times? The parents think the child is sleeping when he's in his bedroom lighting fires. One more thing to worry about.
