My brilliant husband came up with an awesome solution. Zip ties! You know, those little plastic adjustable ties that you can tighten, but not loosen back up again. We just throw that around the belt loops, adjust it to the right size, and voila'! It can get thrown in the wash and dryer, no problem. When he grows a bit (" a bit" being the operative term in this house-- my 2 1/2 yr old is wearing size 12-18 mo pants), just cut it off and put in another one.
I may be small, but I'm cute!!

Michelle - I have the same problem. Trevor is 2 1/2 (end of Jan) and he wears 18 mos. He has such a skinny waist that we were wearing mostly 6-9 mos over the summer. Now, the pants like for yoru little guy, are much harder to fit. I did find some adjustable waist for Trevor - but it is hard t find them at that size.
Your little one sure is cute! I think Trevor would be trying to rip the zip tye off!
My middle one is real skinny too and my oldest wears a slim (but he is getting closer to being in a regular size!
And I though Kaylee was skinny! She's 17 months and still wears 12 month clothes, but they're starting to get tight (and of course the 18 months are huge on her).
Zip ties are a good idea! My boys are growing upward so quickly that for a change we are growing out of pants lengthwise before we annihilate the knees.
Pants with waist sizes too big - every boy mom I know deals with this.
That and not being able to find wide shoes.
I think I smell a new business venture...
That really is a brilliant idea. One I'm going to have to try out since I have a kid with the same issue.
