I didn't really realize how attached to the girls things I am. And I didn't even go through there clothes. I felt some sadness tonight knowing I am getting rid of some of there stuff. A huge part of me wants to just hang onto everything!!! This will be the first time I have gotten rid of anything of the girls. I would really like to pay it forward and just give the clothes and some bigger items to a friend that would enjoy them as much as I have. We were very grateful for the things given to us.. so would love to do the same! That is once I can let go.
Letting go.. How do mommies do that? I know these are just material things but seeings how they have now gone through both girls they are sentimental. I had a hard time just putting the swing in the attic today because Juliana is to big for it now. I am not ready at all for my Juliana to get big. Talking to Jason tonight I said I am in no hurry for her to take a sippy cup most of the time or eat anything but baby food. She isn't crawling which I am perfectly fine with. But Jazlyn didn't crawl until 8 1/2months. So I am giving her just a few more weeks.
I remember waiting for every milestone with Jazi and couldn't wait for her to reach most of them. With Juliana it is completely different. I almost get sad when she does reach a new milestone. So who is to say that baby fever wont come around again. Someone told me that you will have this complete feeling when you know you are done having kids. But as a women do you ever loose the baby fever feeling?! I had baby fever with Jaz when she was so little.. Esp. when she was 10months old. In fact it kicked in overtime while Jas was in Afghanistan :) So I told him to watch out since he is going again in July. He would die, he is is 100% done! I guess I just start asking myself questions when I decided to let go of some baby things. Maybe its the sadness of my girls getting bigger talking. Who knows..
