I have a few small shadow box style protectors, but not the big ones.

I think I have a few true baby clothes packed away, but not having a hope chest, I'm not sure where they are. I did keep a few clothes of Matt's that I passed on to Caleb. Matt was a skinny little stick, and Caleb is anything but, so he's never been able to wear them. There's a green velour dinosaur costume I'm hoping will work in a year or two!Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05510788797735066383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4746656646280276215.post-10077698587790875182013-11-05T11:52:00.737-05:002013-11-05T11:52:00.737-05:00Wow how precious do they look on those!

I bet they had that problem of ending up with both legs in one leg of the suit too!Lisa-Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03150130990478203351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4746656646280276215.post-6897335434935705762013-11-05T11:35:18.154-05:002013-11-05T11:35:18.154-05:00I know exactly why you are keeping them - the same...I know exactly why you are keeping them - the same reason I have Rachel and Jon's up in my loft! Too precious to give away.

I have to laugh when I look back - our hospital had a rule that all babies had to go home snug and warm, in a "snowsuit" - you know, those puffy all in one things? Fine for TTO, who is a February baby, but a little bit over the top for our May child..TTO was 4lb 11 when he was born and I can remember sending his Dad out to buy special, extra tiny suits. You are bringing the memories flooding back - it's brilliant, thank you! Your girls look beautiful in their special outfitsSianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01764280029794453933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4746656646280276215.post-88962062457857280242013-11-05T05:14:49.904-05:002013-11-05T05:14:49.904-05:00This is such a lovely post with beautiful photos. ...This is such a lovely post with beautiful photos.

I still have the one I bought Gracia home from the hospital in. I bought a white babygrow and then knitted a cardigan, hat, bootees and mittons - 1 set in peach and one set in aqua as I didn't now if I was having a boy or a girl. I was so glad I could give the aqua set away.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4746656646280276215.post-12719515968966221082013-11-04T18:04:46.726-05:002013-11-04T18:04:46.726-05:00These are lovely photos ...

A friend of mine has just created a quilt from the box she'd put up in her loft.<br /><br />Think they still sell those page protectors, I've seen them not that long ago...Missus Wookiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08137463465514115553noreply@blogger.com
