So.... last night my hubby, Katy and I went shopping for last minute things that I have been needing for the baby. One of which was a carseat/stroller combo. I have been shopping around for the best deal so I didn't end up with one like Katy had. It wore out really soon and kept pinching her arms when adjusted. I found the one I wanted at Target. I also got some more burp cloths because there is a certain kind that Target carries that I love. Of course while there and at Burlington Coat Factory (which by the way has one of the largest baby departments of any store I have have ever been in) I perused the baby clothes. I didn't get any of course because I have been pretty blessed with newborn sizes up to 9 months. I am almost overloaded! I will have to change him every hour!! I, along with my mother and grandmother, have hit the consignment sales since I found out what I was having. This may not meet the approval of some, but around here we have about 4 major consignment sales per year that go on in Spring and Fall and you can get things with tags still on. I wait until the last week when everything is 50-75% off. I pretty much cloth Katy from these sales with the purchase of new accessories on the side. Anywhoo... I got lots of last minute things accomplished yesterday. I even managed to get lots of cleaning done in my house and get the baby's room finished. I am sure everyone is ecstatic and jumping for joy while reading this post, but I just had to seal my sense of accomplishment with writing about it..sorry!! Hopefully in a few weeks my blog will be filled with pictures of the new baby(haven't totally settled on a name yet) Tootles for now...

I'm still very jealous of the consignment sales. Glad that you got all your shopping done and can relax now.
Kayla,I often think of you when I go to them and wonder what sizes the boys are in. I have gotten so many of the most adorable smocked outfits for 1.50 to 6.00 a piece at the most. Mom got a Strasburg for him for 3.00 new with tags on! Katy's Easter dress was a Strasburg and it was 10.00 I think. (not that brands are everything but it is cool to find them that cheap) You should plan a shopping vacation under the premise of "saving money" in the Spring/Fall!
Wow, Baby will be here any time now. It so nice to catch up with whats going on in your life. Since I messaged you, I have found out I am preggo again myself. ...must be contaigous... Looks like I will be due in Dec.
