Yesterday, I had the willpower to finally put Martha’s onesies, bibs and shoes in a box for selling. Better yet, I was finally able to part with Matthew’s Nike shoes since he was a baby (He had more than twenty). They were all put in a box for selling in an effort for me to get rid of clutter (again - didnt I just do that two months ago? We were able to fill 3 boxes, sell it and make money) and raise money for buying new stuff for the house.

It made my heart cringe a little. Despite the fact that I dont want a baby right now, I love having a baby in the house - it just brings so much joy to me - the smell, the smile, even the cries at night - it was just the right type of “busy” I need. Oh well, another three years and I can finally have another baby again.

The only baby stuff you will see now at our house are Martha’s bottles (which I need to replace by the way), her highchair and her stroller, which I plan to dispose of too and just get an umbroller. It is just more convenient. However, pushchairs will be more practical since when we go out, she can stay put and even sleep there (we get to swing some stuff on its handles too). The Hauck Icoo - Plasma 7 - Lollipop Red would be great for Martha, dont you think? When Martha was a baby, since she was the second child, she didnt have the privilege of having new baby cribs or
travel cots since most of them were hand-me-downs. I was also more practical because I knew Martha would be co-sleeping (I was determined to breastfeed). So I never planned to have a crib, I wanted a travel cot so she can sleep soundly when we go out, but she was a big baby and we never found one that she would be comfortable in. So the pushchair/stroller was the greatest investment we purchased - alongside my breastpump
