Weight Gain or Age Spread

I have been skinny my whole life...so skinny that my granddad use to sing a song that went like this:
Yeah Oh I got a girl named Bony Moronie She's as skinny as a stick of macaroni

Even through high school I was small, now I did have a little shape but fast forward to two children and almost 31 years old.  I am 5'4'' and my ideal weight was 125, the highest I ever got was 117.  Now we just recently moved and I am fulfilling a military commitment and to my surprise I have noticed that the clothing I brought with me was fitting a little snugger than normal. But I shrugged it off to shrinkage in the wash/dryer.  Well one day I decided to jump on the scale in a warehouse I work in and it read 127, I said no way and began taking everything out of my pockets and reweigh myself, no change.  So with that being said minus the 5 pounds for my uniform and boots I weigh 122, now while I have dreamed of this weight and really love how my body looks minus a little pooch I don't appreciate the prospect of having to purchase bigger clothes.
