Garage Sale FUN!

I know it's been forever since my last posting, and my belly has grown quite a bit since then, but baby girl attended her second garage sale (but this one was all for her), and we wanted to share our booty! I have been busy bargain shopping for awhile trying to collect and nest away everything that we'll need, and while I am nowhere *close* (who knew having a baby would be so overwhelming with STUFF), we are getting closer and closer... Main purchases thus far have been our strollers, car seat, enough cloth diapers from eBay to last us a very long time, and our latest purchases came from a Mom's of Multiples sale this past weekend. We were hoping to find some furniture, but instead were faced with a bunch of clothes! We figured since the average outfit seems to run from $9-$15 that we'd go ahead and stock up, so bought the following: Non-clothes:

• Squishy, noise making blocks


• Dishwasher bottle thingy


• 9 books


• 1 CD


• 2 DVD's


• Bathtub


• 4 Toys (stroller attachments mostly and a cute stuffed giraffe that Curt picked out)

Clothes:

• Hat


• 9 Dresses


• 9 Onesies


• Maternity dress for me


• 1 bib


• 1 jean skirt


• 1 top


• 2 pajamas


• 1 sleep sack


• 2 bathing suits


• 1 jacket


• 2 leggings


• 2 Aggie onesies, matching socks, and a football wristband


• 1 ballet skirt / tutu


• 1 pair of the most tiny and precious tap shoes (Curt insisted - it was the cutest EVER)!

We got all of the above for a whopping $67. Keep in mind that in buying used stuff, especially for Baby, I am picky when it comes to quality. What's great about this sale is that these parents have so many kids, and thus so many clothes, that if you took the time to dig a little, you could find some almost new stuff - it was so fun! Conservatively I estimate that we saved a little over $300, and have some GREAT stuff to take her through the first year (we tried to buy for all stages of the first 18 months as we know babies grow so fast).

Note that Maverick is getting used to all of this new stuff, LOL! :-)
