making room... Step 2!!

So while I knew what was involved with having a baby girl, Ryan did not. I am certainly not saying that I know all the ins and outs because after raising 3 boys for over 7 years I have turned into sort of a tomboy myself but I did know that like her mommy she would have lots of "stuff" and that she definitely does have! My induction is scheduled for October 21 but already she has more clothes and shoes than all three of her big brothers combined!
gifts....that have no place yet
her crib that needs to be set up
gifts behind the sofa, as tall as the sofa
gifts beside our bed, as tall as our bed
this is Ryan's Tahoe, seats flat, loaded down with donations in order to make room. We have taken 3 tubs of clothes to the children's consignment store and 2 huge boxes to the pregnancy care center...oh and tons of trash to the dumpster!

All of her stuff has now been put away during my last couple of weeks of "nesting," which may I add, nesting is for the birds... once you start on something, it always leads to something else, it is never ending! The nursery closet is FULL and I mean completely full of ONLY girl clothes and she has a tall chest FULL of clothes too. She is not lacking for anything!
