October 27

Today was a day of decision making and revelation.

I have always stored the outgrown baby clothes that all three littles have worn. They sat clean and folded in bags waiting for the next baby... today I finally took the step that tells me I am done... there will be no more babes for me. 

Those cute little clothes and sweet little outfits that I have been keeping are gone. In the next few days I am sure that most of them will be on their way to new homes and owners. I helped the biggest load up his car with the bags and he drove them to the op-shop for me, before I could change my mind!

Then, I sorted through the many clothes that have been outgrown by bigger littles and donated to us by bigger cousins ( that makes 4 older boys than the littlest little, I doubt he will ever be short of something to wear) and rearranged and stocked up for Summer the littles drawers and cupboards.

A certain someone though very excited by 'new' clothes found the whole long exercise very tiring!

At about the half-way point things were looking like this.....

This storage idea is new to me and the revelation I had today. I am hoping it will change my life as much as the idea of storing your sheet sets in a matching pillowcase has done. Stack all the t-shirts vertically instead of horizontally - you can see which one you want immediately and you can get more in the drawer. G. E. N.I. U. S.

Love these pants though they are starting to look a bit small. I will definitely be making some more.

And in other news.... This little has a birthday tomorrow... plans are in full swing!!!!!!
