My Weekend: Yard Sales, Walmart and 4D Ultrasound

Mom and I woke up early on Saturday and went yard sale-ing, just to see what we see. Fortunately we found an ad in the paper about a children's consignment sale at one of the local churches. So we decided to stop by there. I got a couple of shorts for Deagan because he had zero so far, a bag of about 8 or 10 bottles that were barely used (only have to buy the nipples), and these adorable shoes... Apparently the sale was for Friday and Saturday and on Saturday most items were half off. (Score.) We spent $13.00 total.

These shoes were immaculate, they don't even look used at all. The sandals and blue ones were $0.50, the white pair was $1.00.


After the consignment sale we hit some yard sales. I got a little chifferobe for $5.00, we just need to sand, prime and paint it to match the rest of our furniture. I'll post that pic when it's done.
About a month ago I had picked out a travel system (carseat and stroller) that matched my pack-n-play (Wyndham collection). Well a few weeks ago I checked my registry and it said it was no longer available online or in stores. So I picked a new pattern (Broadstreet, and it was only available online, not in stores) that had similar colors and pouted about it for a couple of days. When I had my shower Bobby's aunt had bought the carseat, however it was the wrong pattern, but she gave me the gift receipt. Today, mom and I went to Walmart on our usual grocery shopping trip, and I took the carseat in to get credit on a gift card to I could come home and order the 2nd choice pattern online. We decided to walk back to the baby section to again, just see what we see, and low and behold... There was my original travel system (Wyndham)!! Those Walmart.com people are LIARS!! I think I jumped up and down a little in the isle, lol. There was two of them, but one looked like it had been opened. So mom went to the front of the store to grab another cart and I stood guard at my unopened travel system. We chucked that sucker in the cart and dragged it around the grocery section for 45 minutes, ha ha ha!! So that totally made my day, I used the credit from the other carseat towards the travel system, it all worked out and life is GOOD!
So cute... I just gotta figure out how to install the base in my car tomorrow. Oh, and I was so excited I put it together myself. Bobby said he'd help me put it together tomorrow, but I couldn't wait. :o)

After Walmart, we came home and got ready to go to my 4D Ultrasound: an early shower gift from my parents. It was hard to get really good pictures because he was facing my back and would NOT budge. He must be really comfortable in that position because he was in the same position at my last specialist ultrasound 2 weeks ago. He showed us just about every other body part though!! Here's my little Deagan:

His hand is balled up in a fist.
Face: some of the cord was in front though.

Tootsies!

His fingers are making a peace sign. It helps to tilt your head left to see it...

Yeah, he's flexing for all the chicks out there!! He's gonna be strong like his daddy!

Fingers.
