So today I am going through all of Dean's old clothes (0-9mo) and even some current ones if they are small. I thought that Dean would need a TON of clothes....that is really not the case. I honestly think I was given (as presents and as hand-me-downs) enough for several kids. So, to keep with good karma, I am separating out all the clothes I'm not super attached to and giving them away.
I think one of my friends has the key to handling baby clothes: several onesies both with long and short sleeves, a couple of pants (and/or skirts if a girl), some footsies (nightwear), jacket or two, bibs, a jumper or two and THAT'S IT!
I, on the other hand, have so many items that I don't really get to enjoy him in my favorite outfits because I'm too stressed about making sure he gets into each thing we have been given. I know that may sound funny but I want to make use of everything that we have been blessed with and...well...that can be slightly stressful.
So, to recap: don't buy so much! Keep it to a couple of weeks' worth of clothing and that's it. You won't have to buy much (or receive much) and it'll keep clutter and stress levels down. Now I'm off to separate more giveaways!
