I am struggling with what to do with baby stuff that we no longer need or use. The dilemma is that I don't have a good reason to hold on to anything except for the sentimental value. I have passed along some clothing and toys to co-workers and friends but there are some other-bigger or newer- things that I could sell and be using that extra money towards things we need now. I can put everything in storage... but why? One of my best friends gave us a pack-n-play that she had stored in her attic. I was excited to use it because I had great memories of her kids using it. But when we went to put it together, squirrels had gotten into the netting and ruined it:[ It sounds like I know what I want to do but when it comes to actually doing it, that's a different story. I have totes full of LB's clothes from this first year because I just can't get rid of them... yet. I have one small tote of maternity clothing because I can't do that either... just yet. But, take the walker for example. LB loved it and so did we. But we haven't used it in weeks and I look at it taking up space and think about how another little one could be enjoying it. That is when my "can't let go" struggle sets in! We have such great memories of him cruising around in this walker.
If we were not done with ART and TTC then I would hang on to everything and hope that it would be used by a sibling. But that chapter is closed so I need to separate my emotions and let go of some baby stuff. I'm predicting that's easier said than done...
