Baby clothes... baby clothes

Last Sunday evening April came over to go through about 10 tubs and 6 large garbage bags full of baby clothes before our planned garage sale. The garage sale was supposed to be this past Saturday but we postponed it until mid October. She was filtering out what she definitely didn't want and everything that wasn't season appropriate for her new addition due in February 2009.

We started with the largest tub of clothes and decided to try and go through them in the living room so she could sit on the couch. We both figured the kids would be very interested but she said she didn't mind. As soon as they saw the large plastic tub coming their way their little eyes just lit up. What is that and when can we explore it? First they stood around it and tossed clothes as fast as they could over their shoulders. Then they decided they weren't really getting the full effect of the experience so they climbed on top of the pile of clothes. April and I continued to dig out clothes around them and from underneath them laughing the entire time. Paige was trying to wear them all and I love when she tries to dress herself or put lotion on herself. Those little grown up things she does are about as cute as you can get in my opinion.

Once we reached the bottom of the tub we tossed it to the side so the kids could play in it while we finished separating the piles. I was tossing the garage sale clothes into the kids tub and they thought it was great so I covered them with all the garage sale items. They looked so cute with nothing but their top halves sticking out the mountain of clothes.

Safe to say we had to move our operation to the guest room after this tub was finished.

*I lightened the three pictures above, saved them and they look stupid. I don't want to wait to post this until I bring the camera back to work. AKA pardon the horrible color. Oops!
