Trip to the Second Hand Baby Markets

We went to the second hand baby markets this morning & picked up some bargains (as always!). Excuse the picture quality, im having trouble locating the camera so these were taken on my mobile.

I got this big cardboard book for 50 cents:


A stack of clothes for varying prices:

A sheepskin cot liner (its folded in half here) for $7. Im planing on using this one for over the pillow on my happy hangup (the baby hammock) because regular sheepskins are a bit hard to fold over it:

A sheepskin car seat liner (i dont think this one was ever even used) for $10:

A toddler seat for our pram for $20 (normally $100!):

A pram & baby for jet $6:

Mum bought jet this scooter for $15 - not sure if thats cheap or not?

Some maternity clothes for $6, the skirt is a bit big, might have to stick some elastic in it:

A(nother) nappy bag (well, its a nice one!) for $5:

Think thats it! I love going to the baby markets, you can pick up such great stuff at really cheap prices. Its especially good for clothes although you mainly find newborn to size 2 there, you cant get much for the bigger kids which is a shame.

Ive Been Very Naughty.....Again

3 Large Minky Bubblebubs arrived in the mail today. Couldn't help myself, they were 15% off (they are the old hemp ones) with free postage. Im a sucker for bubblebubs! they are officially my all time favourite nappy :D (now to try & hide them from Rocky).

Check out the size of that foot!

Other updates: Our washing machine was making a really funny noise after DH totally over filled it on the weekend. The service guy came out today & its going to cost $250 to fix - bugger! its still under warranty but theres a coin stuck in there somewhere which requires him taking the back off so he can get the front off so he can get the drum out (apparently). oops! at least it wasn't my fault (although i believe it could have been my coin).

The Baby & Kids Secondhand Markets are on again this weekend in Ryde. Mum & I are going down to grab some more bargains. Mum loves looking for clothes for jet, they are always really cheap there & im after some toys that he can use once he starts pulling up on stuff. You never know, i might even find some MCN, last time i found 2 x newborn bubblebubs for $2 each, bargain!!!

Monkeys in the Mail

More fluffy mail from Darlings Downunder!

Theres 2 x Micro Monkey Doodlez, 1 x Baby Beehinds PUL Cover & 1 x Amber Teething Necklace.

Now for the agonising wait~

Will I Die If I Dont Buy An Ergo?

It sure feels like i will - think im going to explode i want one so much (do you think im addicted to online shopping?!?)

Look, theres a new retro green one - oooohhhhhhhhh preeeeettttyyyyy

If i buy one from babies in arms then i get a free pair of baby legs (not actual baby legs there like stocking things) & they have free postage - how can i pass up an offer like that? Rocky can i pleeeaaaassseeee get one.... i know im on a sling buying ban because i have 6 already but this one is different to the rest & i NEED it, promise i wont buy any more ever.........im just going to assume that if you dont tell me i cant get it then its ok (hehe - hopefully he wont read my blog!!!)
