Step 1: Clean Out Closet

I posted the other day about my desperate need for nesting so that we can be baby ready by December. So I made my first step by going through the closet.

I dunno about you but for some reason getting rid of old clothes is an impossible task for me. I will throw away several things with no problem and other things I hold onto as if they cost me a million dollars or something.

A shirt I'm struggling to get rid of displayed in this photo.
In all honesty, I will never be able to wear it again as I was my tiniest at this stage but something about that shirt has me attached. However, I am thinking about adjusting the straps to turn it into a dress for a sweet little girl!

I can't seem to part with my pink sweater as I wore it to my Grandma's funeral. But alas, it's in the pile after several years of knowing I needed to get rid of it. I guess something about getting rid of it says that I'm really saying goodbye to Grandma.

I wore this skirt to my other Grandma's funeral and well I am still holding on to it, or maybe I did finally put it in the pile after all.

Or what about my favorite pair of pants from college? I haven't been able to wear them in 6 years probably but have continued to hold onto them for some reason. I still love them, but it's time to say goodbye.

I absolutely love this shirt, but it's just a little too small. Even after losing 10 lbs. pre-baby it still didn't fit too great. Time to part!

And I guess I should part with this one too! It's cute, but again...too small!

So attached to this dress, but the boobs can't take it anymore.

So anyone else find that it's almost impossible to get rid of your clothes? Find every excuse in the book not to get rid of them? Hold on a few years too many!!

  2. Oh yeah!!! I have lots of clothes I should've gotten rid of a LONG time ago. And every time I start to I think of new reasons to keep them... Now's as good a time as any to get rid of them! :)
