I'm not in need of any of this, meaning we will get by just fine without this stuff but it would really help out right now.
I could use for dd (sz. 12-18 months):
mittens or gloves
winter coat that's not too bulky
footed sleepers
For ds (size 4T):
winter coat
I would also love to find him a kindergarten/first grade aged computer game that helps with reading/phonics.
I do have some stuff cluttering up the kids rooms so I'll be watching this thread to see if there's anything I can give.
much love

Selissa ~ do you care what type/kind of yarn? I may have some hanging around, but most likely acrylic or chenille and not whole skeins.
Ours ~ none of this is stuff we cannot absolutely live without and I can pay shipping, but not until Friday ~
Warm tights for the girls, sz 6-12 or 9-12 or 9-18 (anywhere in that range) for Lauren and 2t-4t (anywhere in that range) for Caitlyn
Soft, but warm dresses for the girls 6-9 or 6-12mths for Lauren and 3t or 4t for Caitlyn. Love the play dress style (i.e l/s cotton simple), but we need any. Lauren has like 2 dresses suitable for "church" right now and is about to outgrow them both. Caitlyn has a few more, but mostly jumper dresses which we don't have shirts to go under.
Boys dress shirts (long sleeved) and pants in size 5 or 6 and sz 7 or 8. Clip on ties would be great, too.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I have to offer (need receiver to pay shipping, though, it's *really* tight here)
All from thesoapdeck.com
bar of moisturizing lavender
lavender diaper balm
6 diaper buddys
a wrapped bar of baby oatmeal unscented soap from appalachian naturals.
some various (mostly small) beads of various colors
some newborn baby girls 0-3mths clothes, sleepers, gowns, etc
blue boppy w/ dragonfly print (stain on one side)
i'm sure i have more since i am decluttering. will watch this post to see what i might have.

I have to send a pair of pink JoShoes size 18-24 months, really wide width. (plus I think they run a bit big compared to Robeez) They won't stay on my girls feet even with socks. But would be great for a little one with chubby ankles/feet. Unlined - MaryJane style. Like new condition - only worn inside a couple of times briefly.

I am iso a few premie sized girl things for our new baby - due Jan 3rd. I just found out I have pre-eclampsia again this time (I had it with my oldest son) so there is a very good chance the baby will be a bit early. It would be nice to have a few things that fit well.
I can pay for shipping.

We're just in need of Gift cards to grocery stores (Save-a-lot, Aldi's, Kroger, Walmart) or food items (anything). We're having some major medical expenses right now, that even with insurance, are costing us a bundle in co-pays and up front expenses. Things will be very tight for us for a while.

Great idea!
These are a mixture of wants/needs. I can probably help with shipping and will definitely "pay it forward" by sending anything that we are no longer using to someone else in need.
Needs:
~size 2T jeans for a girl....nothing extremely long as my little one has short legs! Prefer good condition (no stains or holes or excessive wear).
~little girl's winter boots (think snow boots)...size 7 or 7 1/2 (wide would be an extra plus, but we could probably make do with a regular width)...
~hooded sweatshirts for a size 5 boy....he just loves hooded sweatshirts, but his head is so big that he outgrew all the 4t/4's that we had from last year!
Wants:
~a yogurt maker (hey, I can dream---maybe someone is decluttering and doesn't want theirs anymore!)
~longer length women's long sleeved shirts, size Large....v-neck, crew neck, pretty much any color/striped/etc.....prefer good condition...no stains or holes!

sz 2 Abercrombie and Fitch flare jeans-these are very broken in, but have NO holes and only slight fray at hem, good for someone who loves faded jeans, great condition considering they WERE (pre-preg) my favorite jeans and they are 6 years old
light blue knit crib sheet, this sheet is supposed to be standard size but was a wee bit small, it was great for use in our Pack N Play though, good condition maybe a light spot here and there
this is it for now, but keep this thread nearby, there will be more to come when we move into our new house and have all our stuff out of storage

i need hats for eleanore. she is always cold. her dr today said that probably the reason is from her brain bleeds, they must have destroyed what regulates the core temp.
so we need to keep hats on her this winter. really would love any. hanna or under the nile pilot caps would be wonderful or some little knitted or crocheted hats. even cotton knit knotty hats. wahm is fine and i can pay shipping and maybe more too.
thanks
