Best Sale Ever

Last week I got to go to the best sales thing ever!! It's called Just Between Friends and it's a traveling consignment shop. You get to drop off clothes and all things baby one day, come for a pre-sale (if you dropped stuff off) and then it's open to the public. This one took place in Sacramento at the convention center. It was amazing. There were aisles and aisles of clothing from new baby to size 12 or so, shoes and then on the other half were aisles of the baby gear. Dozens of swings, exersaucers, toys, swings, bouncers. In the back were strollers, cribs, bassinets, changing tables, gliders and more!! They even had diaper bags, wipe warmers, seriously all things baby!! I got some awesome deals and am hoping to head back to the one in Roseville with Audra and my mom.

Here are some fun toys I picked up for Thomas. The slip in slide was $4, all the dinos for $3, the shoes were $5 (practically brand new) and then the bag that i took with me. It wasn't quite big enough. You should have seen all the moms with laundry baskets with ropes attached so they could drag them along, seriously!!

I got all these clothes (13 items total) for $38!! They only take clothes that look new, no holes or stains. It made the looking easy because you knew they were all in good shape.

I can't wait for next year when I can take some baby clothes back to sell. Check out their website to find one in your area! www.jbfsale.com

Hats and Clothes

Thomas has recently discovered a love of hats! This is the child who has refused to wear one since he could reach his head to pull it off. At the garage sale a couple of weeks ago a friend brought over a few hats to sell. Thomas fell in love with a white one with a "bob" on the front (it's a tomato, which he now refers to as a tomato, but at the time it was a bob), put it on his head and wouldn't let it go. It makes its way to his head at some point every day. Sunday he even managed to wear it to church for awhile. This last weekend another friend brought some more hats, 3 to be exact. Thomas had them scattered through out the house, on his head, on my head and even on daddy's, at one point he was even wearing all three. Of course he doesn't wear the hats correctly. They are always to the side or backwards and keep in mind, they are mens hats, adding something special to the stylish position.

Now, for the clothes. Thomas loves his pajamas. He loves to pick them out and hates to take them off. I've let him pick them out more recently and he comes up with quite the fashions. One day last week, I'm embarassed to admit, he left his pajama shirt on all day with a pair of shorts. This turned out to make quite an outfit when "grammy" brought him a new shirt to try on. I'm sure someday he'll figure out how to pick out matching clothes and how to wear a properly fitting hat correctly. For now it's fun to let him have some fun and enjoy his own style!
