I have spent today dying all of toms blue babygrows purple! been having great fun, and will be doing some more tomorrow. i have just found a load of white ones that i might dye pink, to disguise any small stains on a few of them, and there is a snowsuit I'm dying to get my hands on!
at the moment Ive just been straight dying them purple, but now i might try tie dying some funky colors lol! will put some pictures on if successful, i was quite surprised how cheap it actually is to customise them, the plain ones i have various bits and pieces to sew on and make them unique. its sad i know but I'm actually really excited today especially as I'm drawing nearer to the 30 week mark and i know shes nearing the "safe" zone.
sorting out all of toms stuff has been so much fun today, i had no idea how much unisex stuff he actually had, alot of it can go straight in the draws ready for her. i really cant believe how tiny Thomas once was and even though some of it isn't salvageable and will have to go down charity shop (football babygrows, navy stuff) i feel more ready to give it away now, before i was holding on to it for dear life!
another thing that has shocked me this week is that Thomas' birthday is only 5 weeks away. my baby will be a year old already! what with the increase in his walking, the few words he has picked up (nan, cat, grandad, etc) he looks so much more like a big boy. the funny thing is that although i love each change and new thing he learns, i almost grieve for each little bit of "baby" he loses.
parenthood is a funny thing :)
