Sorting

D is sitting on the floor in the living room, going through all of the clothes and accessories that we got for Andrew.  They've been sitting in plastic tubs in the room we've picked as the nursery.  She's sorting out the ones that could still be appropriate for a girl and the other ones that might be a little gender-specific.  We'll pack all that up and save it for baby #3.

There's a lot of beige, yellow, and green stuff that we can still use, but D is worried about putting a baby in blue before she's old enough to be distinguishable as a girl.  Of course that doesn't mean she needs an entirely pink wardrobe.  We kept out the "I Love Bugs" shirt and the vine-climbing monkey outfit, but we put away the "Future Quarterback" shirt, at least until they create the WNFL.

Almost all of our big, nice blankets, especially the handmade heirlooms, are very blue.  We'll still use them when we're around the house, but they could be confusing in public.  We have very few normal, cotton, swaddling blankets, and I know we're going to need more burp cloths as well.....that's advice we've gotten from every parent we've ever met.  However, we've got plenty of socks.  They are darn cute, too.  We're also thoroughly covered in the classic book department; I love that our families know all the coolest books!
