A size 18-24M (XL) in Infants is also a size 2T in Toddlers. The difference is that an Infant size garment will likely snap at the crotch.
A size 4T and a size 4 are usually close in dimensions. The difference is the selection of styles in each.
Generally, boys grow faster in their arms and legs before they start to gain weight (or "fill-out"). For this reason, measure your child's inseam and check the garment's measurement before selecting your child's size.
After a child outgrows a size 16 in Girl's or 18 / 20 in Boy's, the pre-teen or teen will move to Women's or Men's apparel
I think a "4T" is for "toddlers" and a "4" would be in little boy sizes. I'm not sure though.
