All the little things ...



I have a confession - I have been doing a little bit of "nesting." Ok, so I have been collecting baby items for a little lot longer than little baby has been around. Brandon has approved of my obsession of collecting diapers, wipes and clothes since around the time we got married. He he, silly me. I am just a planner ok! But look at all those cute baby clothes waiting to be washed and worn! If we only knew what gender our darn little nugget is!


Some diapers, mostly size 1, baby wash and baby wipes. I have given a lot of my diapers away for baby showers so it is time to start my stocking up my collection again - if you can believe it I used to have more!

I love all the little toys, books and gadgets we have been collecting. I found a this Bumbo in GREAT condition at a garage sale for only $10 (they are like 40 bucks new! bleh!) And a holder for little pacifers and spoons for the dishwasher. Plus, I have been hoarding that cute little baby Elephant in the box for about 2 years - I was going to give it as a baby gift, but it was so dang cute that I kept it!

Chicka-Chicka-Boom-Boom is my ALL time favorite book. It was the first book I could read on my own (probably memorized it rather than read). You can still my name and scribbles all over my book I had since I was 5 years old. So I bought baby their own book and toy durable enough to chew on while we read with Mom!

 We also found this tiny pack and play at a Garage sale - so adorable right? And only $10! Looks like it came from a good family too. I will probably use it as a bassinet in the bedroom or as a babysitter for the living room when I need a break - he he. I even have a few toys in it already washed and ready to go.
Look at this - I found this cute little baby Elephant squishy toy at a garage sale for $0.50. It looked durable enough to make it through a hot wash so I bought it. I happened to be at Target the other day and found the same exact toy for $5.99 brand new! I hot washed it and still looks brand new. Garage sales can really pay off for that baby stuff.

Thank you garage sale people!!
