Magento 1.9 product attribute sorting issue...

[kokiechick]

The sizing on some of my products displays incorrectly. Instead of doing from lowest size to largest size, it does it in random orders - 12, 18, 24, 3, 6, 9. I'd like it to be 3, 6, 9, 12, 18, 24. The product attribute sorting is set correctly for the display order to show that, but in the product itself, it doesn't display as such. Is this related to the product ID (as when they were put into magento) causing this sorting display issue? How do I resolve this?
