Oh, How God Provides

Here's the latest "jackpot" story:
We had been praying about how we were going to do everything we were setting out to do (and afford many things). Well, last Saturday I saw an ad for a yard sale around the corner from us. It was the first one I went to at 7 am - and here's what I got:

A like-new Even-flo stroller - a really big "Cadillac" of strollers with double wheels and a basket underneath that you could even use for a small shopping trip

A walker with a tray on it with little things to entertain baby - perfect for putting Cherios on at snack time

A bouncy seat that you can lay baby in - it also has a detatchable activity center that can be used to amuse baby while you need your hands free

A tub seat a toddler can sit in to get a bath - it has a belt to secure baby in the seat for safety, and suction cups on the bottom to keep it secured to the tub.

A high chair in great condition

A baby monitor set with a cordless (portable) receiver you can even take out in the yard with you or carry around the house.

A Snugglie baby carrier (for on your front or back)

A baby gym - the kind you lay on the floor, and has 2 arches with soft things dangling from it

An insulated bottle bag

A quilted shopping car seat pad - very cool invention to keep baby from sitting directly on a germy shopping cart

Several outfits - 2 University of KY baby outfits, a Peter Rabbit onezie, a Baby Gap onezie, a plain white onezie, and a black baby turtleneck

And I got everything for $56. Fifty-six dollars. That is God providing right there! We had to go nowhere else. Everything was in such good condition and so clean, it was incredible. I came home and washed stuff up, and we started moving things around to fit things into the front room.

I need to take pictures real soon, so I can start to document the process.

Next, I have to tell you about the things I found this weekend for Baby MIA.
