Children's Consignment Sale

My friend C and I went to check out a local Children's Consignment Sale this morning that happens 2 times per year. I have a friend that does practically all of her girls clothes shopping at consignment sales so I was really excited to check it out! C and I were able to start our shopping early with the "first time moms" group, doors were opening at 8am but we got the jist that we should be there early, so we showed up at 7am and NO ONE was there!!!! We decided we would go to breakfast and return in an hour and that worked out perfectly :) C and I tackled the toy section first and got some really great stuff and then I moved on to the clothes to see what I could find. I had a strategy...no pink (if possible)and no Carters brand (I already have a lot of Carters stuff) and I think I did pretty good!

This is what I came home with:
Toys- $33

Clothes- $41




Not too shabby! C and I plan to return to the next sale in the fall...with prices like this, you don't feel guilty shopping!!!!

Busy Bees

Harper and I have been busy little bees so far this week...Monday we had her 2 month doctor's appointment, Tuesday we met some new friends at a Stay-at-Home Mommy Group we joined and yesterday we went by my old office and I introduced her to all my old co-workers! Harper has been doing really great as Mommy drags her around all over the place! Today we are taking a break and hanging at home...need a little down time and Mommy has a sore throat, blah!

Here is a cute pic of Harper just because:

Chris and I took Harper to her 2 month appointment today. She is now 8 pounds 15 ounces and she is 22 inches long! And the part I know I was dreading, her vaccination injections...she handled them pretty well considering she was getting stabbed in both her legs, but she let out the most horrible scream we have ever heard...and this scream has continued throughout the day...it just hurts us so much to hear, I never thought about how much it would hurt to hear your child in pain, it's awful! We gave her baby Tylenol for the pain and will continue to give it to her, hopefully that will help. She has been sleeping a lot...and this afternoon she slept on Mommy's chest for over 2 hours, it felt good to have her close to me and I like to think it helped soothe her too :) Our little angel is currently sleeping away and I hope the worst is over now....ahhh, being a parent!

Harper & Daddy

Look who is now wiggling her way out of the bouncer!

Happy St Paddy's Day!
