Should it stay or should it go?
E and I are facing what a lot of couples face when they decide they are done having children: what to do with all the stuff. When we moved here, we decided to throw all the baby stuff in a box for a "just in case". Since I am doing all I can to ensure there will be no surprise, I want to declutter the garage. I keep asking E if he is okay with me donating or taking it to a consignment shop. I don't really get an answer. He keeps joking about having a third, and even though I know he is fine with two, I am afraid he is going to jinx us. So I ask you this, for those of you who knew they were finished having children how long did you hold on to the baby items? The infant seats, the high chairs, jumpers, bath tubs, etc. I am terrified if I get rid of it, I will need it. At the same time, I want it out of my garage.

My sister gave me all of their baby stuff for when we have kids, it was hard for her to part with everything but she just knew they were done after two.
ReplyDeleteI know we will face this same issue when the times comes for us. If you have any concrete solutions be sure to share them!
ReplyDeleteWe are one and done. The minute little man outgrew something, it was donated promptly to friends or goodwill. I've kept a few small things for sentimental value, but all those things you mentioned are long gone.
ReplyDeleteI'd just give up stuff and buy new if the time comes.
