For your first child you get a ton of clothes. But most of those clothes are 6 month sizes and under. And well Rylee grew out of 6 month clothes by month 3 and has been living in hand-me-downs ever since. We are extremely blessed and have had giving people all around us. In fact, we have a total of 6 bins down in our storage room full of clothes for Rylee from newborn to most 24 months! Some even larger sizes.
I started to feel sorry for Rylee b/c she never gets to wear those new clothes. But what does she care. She usually drools, spits, snots and poops on them anyways.
Yesterday for church, however, she wore a pretty special hand-me-down. My mom gave this beautiful red sweater to Rylee a few months ago. Her Grandmother made this for her. Rylee told me she felt honored that she could wear something her Great-Great-Grandmother hand-made and still look stylish. I just think it's amazing that in my eyes the two most beautiful people in my life have worn this, my mom and Rylee.
