Ridiculous is the only word that came to mind when Brian and I pulled all of Mersadie's old clothes down so I could put them in a garage sale. These are the clothes from Newborn - 18 Months. Can we say excessive? The sad part is I don't think that we purchased more than 6 outfits for this girl in that time. All of the clothes were given to us by grandparents, aunts and uncles or friends. There were 6 large buckets, 1 small bucket, 2 large space bags and 1 medium space bag and they were all stuffed so much most of the lids wouldn't stay on. I started feeling really guilty about having so much for her. The only thing I could justify all of this with is the fact that she was the first grandchild on both sides. I should have just had everyone put money in her college fund. Way better investment. Now I'll just have to sell them and put that money in her college fund!
Hey, a girl needs a lot of clothes! I don't think it's ridiculous at all. Sadie's hair is getting so long! She looks so cute.
ReplyDeleteI agree - the girl needs lot of clothes! It is so much fun to look and buy - but I promise I will not do so much in the future. I will use the money to buy airline tickets to visit!

That is seriously how our storage space looks in our basement. TONS of tubs of Bennett's clothes! I figure if we have another boy someday, we won't have to buy much :)
