Well today is one for the books! I sold Rainey Grace's baby bedding today:( We are giving our crib to Taylor's brother for his daughter that is due in September. So last Friday I decided to list RG's bedding on craigslist because I just KNEW it would take forever to sell it! Well, about two hours later I got an email from a very interested buyer...then about three more after that! The sweet lady that emailed me first actually bought it!
It is so bittersweet because Rainey might be our last "baby". As I was packing up her bedding I thought about what a sweet time it was having her and how much fun these past two years have been with our little girl. Taylor was so sweet as I was literally bawling over selling it. He said "Shelley, you really don't have to sell it if you don't want to." I think he was pretty shocked how much it effected me. I did think about keeping it but I am very excited for the next little girl that will be sleeping in that gorgeous bedding! And, I am not quite sure what I would do with it if I kept it. I didn't keep Terry's so I am OK with selling hers. I know it seems silly but it is a day I won't forget!
But, I did order Rainey's big girl bedding...here is a pic! I will have to post a pic when we get it all set up. She will stay in the crib for about another month until we pick up the day bed we have at my in-laws. I am sure that will be a whole other post on how transitioning her to the bed--not looking forward to that!

You may be surprised at how well she does in the big girl bed. From our experience, girls "seem" to get it easier than boys. I know you are cherishing these sweet milestones . . . RG is growing fast and is so pretty. I hope to hang out with you and the kids soon - this summer has been much different than I imagined. Good, but different. Love you!
