I finally did it. I have now given away all of my baby clothes. I wanted to keep Sam's baby clothes until I knew what our last baby was going to be and when I found out that our last one was a boy, I think I was in denial and just wasn't ready to give them away.
So after Taysom was born I still kept Sam's clothes and I even boxed up Taysom's clothes. I knew we were done, but I just didn't have the heart to give them up. I have so many memories of the kids in each of the clothes, especially the boy clothes that all three have worn.
I must have a caught a bug or something, because I just wanted to get rid of as much clutter and baby stuff as I possibly could. So I took a deep breath and headed to the garage. I condensed all of Sam's cute, tiny clothes from four or five plastic containers to one!! I saved the ones that I loved the most and gave the rest to Vaughn's assistant that is having her first baby!
As for the boy clothes I couldn't do as much because Tays is only in 9 month clothes, but I still gave away the majority of it. There were so many cute clothes that were just purchased or given to us for Taysom and I wanted to make sure they went to a good home (sounds silly, I know). Thankfully, I have a bff that is due pretty soon with a baby boy and her other boy is almost 8, so I thought she could use some next to new baby boy outfits! She'll probably just throw them away, but as long as I don't have to do it, then it doesn't matter to me!
Anyway that was a long story just to say I have given away my baby stuff and it feels great! I feel like it was what I needed to do to feel like that chapter of our lives had really ended.
