Buying used

I've been trying to buy what I can used lately.  I mean come on stuff for the kiddos can get pretty pricey and if you think about it they only use it for such a short time, so most of the time I can find stuff in pretty good condition. One of my favorite places is Kids Again.  Blah blah blah.  Anyway, today I hit up Moppet Togs, you know that huge one time sale we have here in Boise.  So I just wanted to brag about my scores today!  I've been wanting a bike trailer for the girls.  I have a seat on the back of my bike for Natalia, but that doesn't work with two kiddos now.  I've been watching Craigslist, but all I've seen are ones that aren't in good shape for a lot of money.  Brand new these cost anywhere from $200-$600.  Well, got myself one in excellent shape for only $100!!!  So excited to use this, go away stupid rain. 

Another awesome find is this tub seat.  I saw it online a while ago and thought  it would be great for Lydia.  I love to bathe the girls together now, but Lydia's blue tub takes up a lot of room in our tub and poor Natalia is squished (although she doesn't seem to mind, she asks to bathe with her sister).  Anyway, I hadn't been actively been trying to find a used seat, but was seriously excited to find this one! Both girls seem to get a kick out of the fact that Lydia was sitting up in the tub like this.
I found a bunch of other great deals, including a new carrier similar to a Moby Wrap (retails $60 but got it for $20).  I have an Ergo which I love and will still use, but it's big and bulky and a little hot in this warm weather.  This one is light and she can face outwards which she got a huge kick out of this afternoon.  On top of all that i got some shoes for Natalia, some cute dresses for the girls to wear this weekend, and a couple of birthday gifts for Natalia.  All in all a great trip!  ;)

Ok just wanted to get that down.  We have an awesome weekend coming up.  Charlie's grandparents and aunt Vicki are coming here from Texas. They've yet to meet all thee babies so it's going to be a great weekend.   So stay tuned for some fun pictures.
