Current Baby Clothing Inventory (as of Feb 7th)
We have already amassed a bunch of early-baby clothing and wraps. We’ve purchased a few items and also had a lot of items handed down to us from our friends who have just recently phased out of 0-9months baby clothing. Deenie just sent us a few more basic onesies along with a good diaper bag/backpack. I photographed all the clothing we had just to figure out what we have and to give the GPs a good idea of what we already have. I’ll include an inventory list of items.
I know all the grandparents (GPs) are eager to express their grandparental-joy with gifts and cute things for the baby, but you’ll quickly find Lia and I do have a threshold for the amount of stuff and items this baby needs or should have.
The world is a mess with excessive consumerism and unconscionable capitalism and unsustainable practices and now that we are parents and forced to participate in more than normal consumerism we would like to do so responsibly and in good conscience with our child’s future in mind. How you guys as grandparents choose to interpret that is your choice. There will be plenty of ways to ‘spoil’ your grandchild, and we promise to try our best to figure our how to satiate your rightful desires to shower our child in gifts. I think for now Lia and I are trying to only purchase items we will need in the next 0-4 months. By the end of summer and when the baby is 6months old we can figure out what may work for us.
Alright alright I’ll stop lecturing you guys and being such a stick-in-the-mud. Here is a big photo gallery of our current clothing inventory. You’ll see we also already have a couple of baby-wraps and carriers and swaddling blankets and a sleep sack which may be new items from your parenting days. Babies, even those not born in log cabins, seem to wear more mittens these days then I ever remember wearing as a new born, but they seem to be part of the whole baby-wrap/swaddling get-up for new borns.
