A day of bargains...

I just have to write a quick note about the bargains that were had yesterday. I take pride in finding a good deal and yesterday was a triple whammy!

1: I bought 37 items of clothing for Julia for $50 (onesies, pants, shirts, sweaters, darling jumpers, and dresses). It was a garage sell type thing I found on Craigslist. This nice lady was selling her gently used name brand baby clothes for 1 and 2 dollars. Deluxe!

2: Busy at preschool, Amber got a call from her friend telling her to leave me with the preschool kids (and Julia) and get down to Old Navy where there were racks and racks of 97 cent items. (Mind you, this friend's child attends the preschool! These ladies love a good deal.) Amber resisted the urge to leave immediately and we headed down together when preschool was over. Julia slept like an angel while we tried on dozens of items. In the end, I bought 15 things for $22. (Shirts, sweaters, capris - oh, some were $1.97 - yeah, a splurge!) The only downside: Now not only will Amber and I be wearing the same striped polos, so will tons of other women around here. Oh well, what can you do when it's less than a dollar?!

3: I love when I come home to a package on my porch. Yesterday I received one from ebay. I had ordered two hardback books for Julia's growing library- $7 after shipping. We can't wait to read Click, Clack, Moo and Giggle, Giggle, Quack.

Anyway, that was fun but I best not leave off without posting a picture or two of Julia. She is so hilarious these days. I love when she squeals while laughing.
