There is a church that has a huge community of families with children and they put together this kids consignment sale and it is amazing! It starts in the middle of the week rather than on a weekend which works great for me cus its not as crazy. This particular church has their sales twice a year and I was first in line last year and this year i was again and you really don't have to get there that early cus it starts at 9 on a wed. so what usually happens is there are a handful of new mommies at the door when it opens, but the rest of the mommies come after they drop their kids off at preschool so from 9-915 or so its fairly empty so i can look at everything before it gets to be a madhouse which all of these consignment sales end up becoming!
Last year i got those two wicker chairs i always sit katie in, I have a billion photos of katie in those chairs and they were only 8 bucks for two! The sale goes for 3 days and the last day is half off everything so i usually go back and get books and things for a quarter. OMG today i went and spent 50 bucks and got a TON of stuff!!!!! I got a bunch of clothes, a few books cus katie likes particular ones (i usually wait to go back and get books for 50 cents or a quarter but i paid a buck for these today cus i didn't want them to be gone by friday) some toys, puzzles, bathing suits, and a walker that ya push when just learning to walk. Here are some photos of the clothes. I didn't take a snapshot of the walker but for you mommies out there you know what I mean and I only paid 6 bucks for it. The clothes are to die for!!!!!
some toys, not including the walker and 2 other wooden puzzles! 
bathing suits!
a little of this, a little of that. the dress in the middle is too big.will be great for next summer. i couldn't resist it was only 2 dollars and it's a lilly P!}
Dresses!
separates!Of course Nana came with me and got her fair share of things for Katie as well including a pink and cheetah luggage set with a dress bag and pull suitcase and matching purse, a fisher price chair with a light next to it,i had never seen it before so i can't really explain it but i think katie is gonna love it!, and some silk dress hangers for all of katie's new clothes along with the wooden puzzles. We both did great! Katie is a lucky girl I must say!!!
