Amazing good deals!

Twice a year our county holds a huge children's consignment sale. My sister in law goes every year, and this time she took me along. OH MY GOSH! It was AWESOME! It was two floors in a huge gym filled with baby/ kid clothes, books, furniture, and other stuff. It was like an enormous garage sale all in one place. I went through the infant clothes and picked out a few neutral name brand things like Polo Jeans and Baby Gap sweaters. But my real treat was when I wandered into the furniture section, and laid my eyes on this beauty.I had been thinking about getting a cradle to put in our room for when the baby is really young, but I was sold when I saw this! The best part... it only cost $35 dollars!!! Im thinking of painting it, because the cherry color doesnt really match our espresso colored furniture. I'm thinking an antiqued cream color? Thoughts?Here's one of Lola trying it out. She was really freaked out to be in it, and was not impressed with the rocking!

Onto other baby related stuff... Im really excited because this weekend Missy in Pink and I are hosting a baby shower for Missy's sister in law Michelle. The shower has been in the works for a long time and we have had such a great time planning it! I cant wait to show yall all of the cute details! I cant divulge anything yet though, because Michelle stalks my blog sometimes! Its going to be super cute!
