Ahhh, about the tags on the clothes, those are still on the clothes! I was removing tags from toys, boxes, etc. Because, like any adoption, nothing is final until our day in court...so, for us, there is a back up plan. We are expecting a baby girl directly from the hospital but the possibility does exist that the birth mother could change her mind. Should this happen, I have receipts for everything that is gender related and most everything still has the tags on it. I did wash some onesies that I got at a second hand baby shop to have in the diaper bag and so I have SOMETHING ready for when the baby arrives. I have 2 other outfits that I have removed the tags from...the coming home from the hospital outfit and another for whatever reason. I also have sizes of all kinds from preemie (good chance that this baby will be early & I only have a few as our hope is that she will grow!!) through newborn to 3-6 months.
    Also, the places I have been buying from have a 90 day return policy (perfect!) AND I have shared our situation and some of the bigger stores have said that they would give me my cash back if the adoption of this baby girl doesn't work out even if the 90 days is up. I think that's pretty darn nice! :)
