Let the Garage Saling Begin!

We were excited to hit up a few garage sales Saturday, but were surprised to find there was only one that sounded very promising. I always look at craiglist so that we only go to sales that will have what we need and don't waste our time looking at ones with egg cartons full of golf balls. :) This trip the mission was baby boy clothes - and we had great success! Had to include a pic. Amazingly they all look pretty much brand new, and some even still have the tags on them. We ended up with 10 sleepers, 3 pairs of pants, a shirt, pant oufit with two shirts with a puppy on it (from Lorelei...had been looking for one like this!), a light sweatshirt, 2 pairs of socks, and a hooded towel. All for only $9.50! (Thats 19 items folks!) We are definitely going to make garage saling a priority this summer because for those prices we can get out little guy a great wardrobe! :) Hopefully we will continue to have such good luck.

As always, Lorelei comes back with one toy from the sale...this time we ended up with a talking Elmo...he tells stories, jokes, dances...you name it. She really enjoys him, but Brad and I keep looking for a volume button...the mom at the sale warned, "you are going to want to turn that thing off!" :) Lorelei wouldn't cooperate with the video and just wanted to watch behind the camera to see what I was recording, so you only have an Elmo solo for now.

*Forgot to tell a cute story in relation to this post. As I was trying to get her to be in the video with Elmo, she was obviously not going for it, so I just dismissed it and said "okay, fine" when I quickly heard hear response back... "fine"...oh boy just the word I needed to add to her vocabulary!
