One man's junk...

They have about a bajillion yard sales here every weekend. My friend Delia would be excited. :)

We went to a few on Saturday, and I found Halle's high chair for four dollars! I was excited. It doesn't have a cover, but we don't use covers anyway because they just get gunked up. Normally during dinner, I put Halle in the bumbo on the table, and feed her while we eat because she won't have us eating without her. The problem with this is that she is closer to hot food and the bumbo squishes her tummy a little and makes her spit up more. I have wanting to buy Hayden a booster chair, but they are expensive. I would also have to buy a chair, because we only have folding chairs and that wouldn't work. So while I didn't want two high chairs, it's the perfect solution! We just scoot Hayden's high chair under the table so he eats with us, and then I can feed Halle in her high chair. I just never thought I would see two high chairs in my kitchen at the same time!

Look at that strength! And those awesome chubby legs. She just gets cuter every day. She is in 6-9 month clothes now! It's always sad to put away the old clothes, but also fun to get out the new cute stuff. At the first yard sale we went to on Saturday, there were a TON of girl's clothes. I finished off her whole 6-9 month wardrobe for 7 bucks! And I got really cute stuff too, no ugly rejects. The toy she is playing was 5 dollars. It came with a bunch of blocks and three other toys for the blocks, and we already had some of the blocks to go with it! I love a good deal! I'm sort of becoming addicted to yard sales. I definitely have to have a limit before we go out, because I get too excited about all the cheap stuff.

That's awesome!! Those are stellar deals! I think I'll have to go to some yard sales...Hunter is running out of hand-me-down clothes that fit him. What to go! :)

She IS so strong! Wow.

Ha ha. I just have to laugh at your yard sale addiction. It is really fun though huh? It is amazing what people get rid of! Aren't you glad you have your nice big kitchen to house two high chairs?

Those deals are awesome!! That's so exciting to find those things you need. :)

I love the picture of Halle pulling up - I never thought her legs would be chubby, but they are - what a sweetheart! Linus can't pull up to anything yet - weird because Claire was doing so by 7 months. It's odd how they are so different in their development - he's almost crawling though so that is fun.
