I love free stuff!!

August 3rd, 2010 at 02:22 pm

SIL works as a nanny for a family who evidently doesn't know that once their children outgrow items they can sell and make some money back. They told SIL who told MIL whoever wants their stuff can have it. MIL jumped in and claimed a whole bunch of stuff for me and T (and the baby)! Evidently they have a cherry (not a big fan of cherry, but hey, it's FREE) convertible crib, changing table, and dresser ready for us to take. Plus MIL got a whole bunch of their swings/bouncers/etc (including a Graco SweetPeace?? MIL was saying how it's really cool...I'm still not sure I know what it is, but has anyone out there used one with their baby?) I told her to take anything that wasn't nailed down because even if we don't use it, we'll sell it to a consignment shop or at a yard sale. T and I might go up to the in-laws this weekend and see what else they've taken for us so far...I'm so excited!! Smile

On the cleaning front, things are inching on. T finished painting the babies room and the ceiling, so now he has to do one final sanding of the floor before he does the first coat of stain. It's so exciting to see everything coming together. The whole moving thing is seeming more like a dream now than anything, but I'd still be interested in putting up the house for sale just to see if there's anyone out there interested. We still need to get some more things in order, so maybe we'll just ride it out with the pregnancy and finish up the odds and ends and then in April list it?? I dont know..it seems things change around here minute to minute!

    That's great! People pay top dollar for baby stuff - so should be easy to sell anything you don't want or need.

    That is totally great. Bake them some brownies or something so they keep you in mind for other stuff!
