Cleaning up the Nursery
So this weekend we’re working on clearing out the nursery, and doing some toddler proofing. We figure we won’t actually need the nursery, we never did with Desmond, but we figured it would be nice to have it ready if we do end up using it. Since Friday is the day my in-laws watch after Desmond for me, which is really nice, I decided to start early. So I emptied out the dresser of all of Desmond’s clothes from this summer and grabbed the ones in his closet as well.
I then went and boxed them all up for the attic, and can I say the boy has a lot of clothes! All the summer 24 month and 2T clothes are now boxed though as are last years winter 18 month clothes. I just need to figure out if there is a box with room in the attic for the couple of summer 18 month stuff I have or if I need to make a new box for it.
All the newborn and 0-3 month clothes are also now in the dresser. I noticed that most of the newborn clothes are fairly boyish and most of the 0-3 stuff is fairly gender neutral, and then I remembered why. We bought almost all 0-3 stuff before we knew if Desmond was a boy or a girl and we actually bought most of the newborn stuff after he was born and we found he fit in it better then the 0-3 stuff at least for the first 2 weeks or so. I’ll have to take it all out and wash it before baby gets here, but for now at least it is put away and ready for her. I also noted I have 1 dress for her in newborn size and 1 in 0-3 size, but I figure I’ll end up with a few more as gifts and if not I’m sure she’ll end up with a ton in 3-6 month and up clothes, since it is a girl and I can’t see my Mom resisting buying her the cute little baby dresses *grin*, I can’t see me resisting it either.
