Over the last couple months, I have snagged a few items of clothing when I've found a bargain for our sweet Hayes (check here if you have no idea who I'm talking about and missed our official name-revealing post!)
I got this shirt at the Crew Cuts outlet on sale. I can never resist a good nautical theme! LOVE Crew Cuts!!!
Love love love gingham! I think this shirt from Target is adorable (in a manly way of course, hubby!).
Another great deal from the Crew Cuts outlet! I don't know if the hubby is extremely fond of purple, but I think the skull and crossbones make it more manly!
This awesome vest wasn't purchased at our yard sale, so I had to snatch it up! This will be perfect for the camping trips we love to take.
One of my favorite baby stores, Janie and Jack, was having a huge sale and I thought that this striped one-piece was adorable.
I had seen these swimshorts awhile back (also at Janie and Jack), and was so excited when they were on sale!
The last item I got on sale from Janie and Jack was this plaid one-piece. Love it!
Since we don't know exactly how old our little guy will be when he gets home (0-12 months is our parameters), to be on the safe side all of the clothing I have bought is 12 months or older.
I don't need to buy much since I have 2 adorable nephews who will gladly pass down their hand-me-downs (which I LOVE), but I couldn't resist a few cute things that I've found on sale!
Do you other adoptive mamas buy clothes for your little ones before you even have a referral? It makes it so much more real for me. I like picturing him in his new clothes!
Oh my! GUILTY!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteJust bought the cutest shirt at target "My mommy doesn't want your advice".
Figured we'd be needing that one!
AND I have a hand-me-down buddy too - so Adelyn (Who mind you is not even BORN yet) has a full set of 3-6 and 6-9 month clothes waiting for her!

No, we didn't. We adopted from foster care and were told to expect a child 6 years or older. Imagine our surprise when we got the call saying there was a 13-month-old we could meet the next day. We only had 3 weeks to prepare for him to move in! We had some amazing friends who showered us with hand me downs and a crib super quickly. :)
ReplyDeleteBrooke, sounds so cute! Can't wait to see a picture of her in it!
ReplyDeleteStephanie, it's wonderful to have such great friends! We are blessed by ours too!
