Success!

I went to the clothing exchange this morning and had great success! I took about 2 1/2 boxes worth of Macy's old clothes and brought home tons of great baby boy clothes, shoes, and accessories. Some things are still in their package or still have tags! I also took a box of diapers which sold as soon as I said they were for sale! Easy 20 bucks! And I got some great designer baby boy crib sheets for $10. I'm so excited and feel so much more prepared for this baby now! And it was great motivation for me to go through ALL my baby boxes and sort out what could be used for the new baby, donated, exchanged, sold etc. Now I just have to clean out, trim out, paint, and re-do the floor in our spare bedroom. I'm thinking baby blue, brown, and orange. Could be fun. Oh, and if anybody wants to get rid of a dresser, that's the only furniture I need.

I talked to Jorelle this morning at the exchange and I'm excited to get to work with her on an exchange set for sometime in August in Idaho Falls. So start going through your stuff now and be prepared for a GREAT event! There will also be a consignment area for things you want to sell. Please start spreading the word and please feel free to ask questions or make suggestions!
