{56/365} How do you decide?

February 25th, 2010 | Add a Comment

TWO good things happened today! First, I started preparing for the Mothers of Multiples Sale. Yes, this is something I should start LONG before now as I already know when the two sales next year will be but it is a daunting task with all of their clothing and toys and everything. Plus, I have been trying to decide what to keep and what to let go. We do not feel we are done with children, though we are not sure how the remaining children will join our family or at what age. So it makes it hard to make those decisions. I finally today decided I had to have a special attachment to the clothing or it had to be worn for a special occasion. I then touched EVERYTHING in their closet, storage, dresser etc…and made some tough decisions about what they needed and what they didn’t, what should stay and what should go, and so much more. I didn’t keep much for future babies as these two were so small that I am pretty sure even if I found a way to store it all the next child would not fit into these clothes at the right season, plus I am pretty good at the deals on children’s clothing so I am not concerned about that. But I kept a lot of clothing that had some special meaning to me or Aaron or maybe them as they grow older. This little project took forever but it is done now and I could not be happier ~ now I just have to price all the clothes that need to be sold, that may take a little longer.

Second, I heard from our adoption attorney and our date to finalize the twins adoption should be set soon. Yep we still have not finalized for a host of reasons I will not get into right now. But as soon as we get the date I promise to shout it from the rooftops!

Now for the pictures:
