my husband offered my daughters old clothes and gear to someone who works for him. i was planning on saving them since we have been talking about trying to have another child when my daughter turns 1. she is 9 months now. i think my husband is just assuming that we are going to have a boy. anyways this couple could use help, they both work min wage jobs and he is also in the national guard reserves, so i am going to part with some of the baby's outgrown things.

my question is... would you consider it stingy if i kept the clothes that i loved my daughter in? these are obviously the nicest of all the clothes, and most of these were bought for us by someone else. i am also considering saving some socks and onsies because i know there is a 50/50 chance we are going to end up buying this stuff all over again, and i am not expecting anyone to throw another babyshower for us when we do have our next child. what would you do? am i being ridiculous because we dont even have this child to save this stuff for?
 
There is no reason why you can't keep some of the things that you really liked. My husband and I said that this was our last child..but you never really know. Plus I don't like to have some sort of memento.(sp?) I have kept at least 1 outfit that really reminds me of each one of my kids. You can give it to them when they get older. My mom did that with me. I still have the baby shirt that I have from when I was in the hospital.
