I kept every single one of Matthew clothes when he was a baby and then when Josh came along I hardly had to buy any clothes at all! Now as Josh grows out, they either get tossed because they are ragged or they get sent to charity. (Some are very nice, Osh Kosh and such.)
I keep few toys. Some are very sturdy and I put them in the attic for the grandkids someday. Some are sentimental and I put them in a bag in the attic too...probably for grandkids as well.
Steve is worse than I am about holding onto his clothes. He just knows he's going to get his age 26 build back someday. After the first baby, I got rid of anything under size 8. Except I have a size 4 black suede skirt...I take it out and look at it now and then.

Hey, I can understand saving clothes to put on the younger kids, but saving them on the off chance her sisters
might have another kid...well... send 'em to her mom then...make no mistake here, I
love Mrs g'nad...
Tell Steve I said I understand... While I have only gained 10 lbs in the last 14 years, I've added three inches to my waist?... the Corps gets all the credit for keeping my max density within reason...

He just knows he's going to get his age 26 build back someday. Well, me too. But when I do I want NEW STUFF!!!
