Us too! But the school has a nasty stomach flu going around. It lasts 3 to 7 days!!
that's so kind of you sheets!
I was wondering why no one was emailing me ..realized its a US holiday....ugh so bored
Hello all!
I finally found 6 tubs with the Astro pins!!! I'm so excited. I got 2 Strawberry, 2 Blueberry and 2 Red Velvet! I asked if they had any in back but the guy said no.
Oh well at least I was able to get 1 Free pair of shoes. :) :)
I'm 2 pins away from a second set too! So happy, I really needed new runners!
Glad to hear your furnace got fixed quickly and cheaply kw01ai!
And so nice of you to give your old clothes to the needy Sheets!
I have a VERY weird attachment to all my kids' clothes. I cannot bare to part with anything. Everytime I start thinking about it (or DH starts the conversation) I get super sad and teary. lol.
At least everything is organized in tote bins so they'll be fine for awhile. lol
@Lola, I have decided to kep NB-2T almost permanently... since I have 2 girls 2 and 10months and didn't know the sex we have lots of gender neutral. We don't know if we are done having kids BUT storage of clothes can become a space eater...since I have a new niece, I decided keep NB-2 and then pass 3T and up along to her (once we are using that size and are down with them).
Had a great time at the Early Years Centre
Off to put the bunch down for naps and then I am going to read...Midwives of Venice. It is very good.
There are certain pieces I just will not give up... favorite shirts, stuff that they wore for a special occasion, etc. Little guy has an angry bird shirt that my Mom bought him in the states last weekend... I can't see myself ever giving it up because it's so darn cute!!! And, we had a heck of a time finding it.
DD is just in 4T and I've saved everything so far. Considering we have a girl and a boy, it's a lot of stuff. lol.
I think I'm going to have to set an age and then starts giving stuff away. Maybe anything over 2T, since that seems to be when they started getting really rough on their clothes.
We're also not sure if we're having more (we'd like to but...) so that's probably one under lying issue I have without getting rid of things...
I recently got DS a new bed and mattress that someone had offered for free on a FB site... when we went to pick it up the lady had bedding, clothes, toys, movies, and all sorts of other goodies she had gathered up for me! I was completely floored and I'm more than happy to pay it forward :) I've got some stockpile stuff I'm going to go through and I'll make the family up a box of food, toiletries, cleaning supplies, among other things. I can't even imagine losing everything in a fire :(
It's bad enough dealing with the devastation of having a fire but the amount of people without insurance is just scary!
Hey Sheets...
I've been meaning to tell you...
It's not Christmas anymore...
I laugh everytime I see Charlie and his tree. lol.
LoL almost a month past Christmas...you're right...Quote:
