I have to wash their clothes twice before they wear them, using the weakest detergent possible. It's insane. But that's definitely a good idea. Baby stains are no joke, so your tip about dying or camuflouging in some way is all too useful. :) Tara http://theyoungmommylife.com You know, I thought about that, but both my kids have extremely sensitive skin so I can’t really put anything on them.

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog and linking to my hand-me-down tips. You bring up a great point ... you'll get the most mileage from the tips I featured if you've got close siblings of the same gender ... unless you go with unisex color choices from the get-go with child #1. The alternative strategy? Let's learn how to tie dye and disguise that girly pink!! Hi Tara! Thanks so much for stopping by my blog and linking to my hand-me-down tips.

I bought Jaedyn a few neutral outfits before ifound out he was going to be a boy. But the same day I found out his sex, I went out and bought something blue. Everything had to be blue. Green? Yellow? White? No way man. Plus blue was already my favorite color. While I don't plan to have anymore kids, so I could care less about the color, I do hand down ALL of Jaedyn's clothes. A lot of my friends had little boys recently and I know it's not easy being a young parent, so I try to help out where I can. (My plan was to be sending you his clothes that are too small but seems like it's going to be the other way around!) I checked out the website and the tips were pretty handy.
