I can't wait to have little girls someday so I can take a fashion cue from you! My first thought when you said you had clothes to sell was also that I would love to take some, and I don't have kids yet! Keep dressing your precious girls just the way you like, you do a great job!!<br /><br />~Lynn in NYLynnnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29488101.post-73819775185669266092009-10-22T05:16:56.603-07:002009-10-22T05:16:56.603-07:00Do they have Mom2Mom sales in your area??

In fact, i often see that we buy alot of the same items--MJ has been one of my favorites since my daughter was 9 months old!<br /><br />On the excess clothing issue, I usually try to find someone that I think would really like the clothes and pass them on. OF course i always keep some sentimental pieces but the bulk gets given away. Now that my financial situation has been changed, I may have to start doing the consigning thing as well. Let us know if you find out an easy way for this!<br />Tara C.Tara Cnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29488101.post-84832061498700531002009-10-21T12:33:17.371-07:002009-10-21T12:33:17.371-07:00I'm a first time signer, but I LOVE the way yo...I'm a first time signer, but I LOVE the way you dress both of the girls. I check in each morning to check out your pictures and read your post. <br /><br />Like others have mentioned, I have found that I do best with selling my children's clothing through the semi annual consignment sales. Most consignment stores only give you 40% however in the semi annual ones you can earn up to 65%. It does take a little work, but it feels so good when you get that check. I pretty much invest what I earn right back into the next seasons wardrobe! <br /><br />Keep up the great posts!<br /><br />BethMy Sweet E'shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05126658599895950000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29488101.post-43589636961905839212009-10-21T12:27:02.181-07:002009-10-21T12:27:02.181-07:00p.s.

I forgot to mention, you may see signs around your community that says "SALE - Gently used clothes, books, toys, etc." Usually I see a church name or Mom's Club sponsoring the sales.Moniquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00325442545246710477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29488101.post-16865853257850445582009-10-21T12:24:25.600-07:002009-10-21T12:24:25.600-07:00I don't know if you'll get a chance to rea...I don't know if you'll get a chance to read my comment amongst the many you receive. <br /><br />I participate in a "children's sale" that is held by a church. Check all churches in your community and ask about children's sales or Mom's Club. Usually you get a percentage of your sale and the church gets a percentage. What ever is left over either gets donated to good causes or you can claim back.<br /><br />The sales usually happen once in the Spring and once in the Fall. I am able to get rid of the previous season's clothes and shop for the next two seasons. The money I make at the sale gets turn around and spent. So it's like an "even exchange" plus you don't accumulate a big inventory.<br /><br />I've been doing this for years and it's a whole lot better than having to pack and ship one piece at a time. More like bins at a time. <br /><br />MoniqueMoniquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00325442545246710477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29488101.post-92190753154842674022009-10-21T10:51:51.416-07:002009-10-21T10:51:51.416-07:00Your daughters look beautiful!

"...the only time you can have a tummy or rolls." What the heck?? Anyway, your daughters are perfect and they always look amazing.
