Yard Sale Scores

I have always loved the idea of a yard sale, but not being much of a morning person, I often sleep through the best deals.

Lately, I have managed to hook up with several great yard sales that have proved very fruitful. A co-worker's niece has a daughter a year older than Hayden, and she was selling all her baby clothes a couple weeks ago. I ended up buying almost all of them - they were nearly new, or in some cases, still new, and this woman has great taste! Score! I was so thrilled! With the cost of new clothes, I quickly got over the "new baby - new clothes" thing I'd had going in my head!

Last weekend, I found 4 amazing ladder-back chairs for our porch. All they need is a little paint, and they'll be perfect! Score!

Today, my mother in law called as I was getting ready for work to tell me that some friends of ours were having a yard sale, and they have a pile of kids between them, so I swung by and got a great stroller (and a toy stroller for Hayden to push), some other toys, and even more great clothes - score!! :)

I am SO psyched about the stroller! I can't wait for our next farmer's market excursion so Haydie and I can go wheeling around! Heck, we'll probably take a spin around the driveway tonight!
