So I’ve been doing a lot of resale shopping lately. I think I’ve become addicted to Mom 2 Mom sales and Craigslist.org and Freecycle.org. Love them. I’ve gotten some great, much needed and gently used baby stuff. Diaper Champ, cloth diapers, books, NWT clothing items for a $1! It’s fabulous. Saturday I went to a mom2mom sale, and Levi fell asleep on the way home. Didn’t find much there, but we have been looking for a few of the “bigger” toddler items, like a convertible car seat. And since he stayed over at Joy’s for a day, he played with their cozy coupe car and loved it. He also loves the ones at church in the toddler room, so I’ve been keeping an eye out for one. I digress – he fell asleep so I decided to keep driving around the neighborhoods, taking the long way home since Levi will wake up when the car stops. I’m swinging by garage/yard sales and slowing down and looking, since what I’m looking for is big stuff. I’m talking to Becky on the phone who assures me that at 11:00 in the morning, everything is picked over and I likely won’t find what I’m looking for – and as she is saying this, I pass a sale with this in their yard:

Becky asks what I’m willing to spend, to which I reply, ahhh, $10. And voila!, $10 it was. 🙂 And one super excited wiggly boy as he opens his eyes to me trying to cram this thing in my back seat! When I got it in, he stroked it and said, “Oh Yeah! Oh Yeah!” in his ‘I’m the luckiest boy in the world, it’s exactly what I wanted!!!” voice.

Guess it makes up for me locking him and my keys into the car on Mother’s Day… that’s another story!
