The 1st Baby Purchase!!!

WOW - What a day I've had! Today was the 1st day that I spent shopping for baby! If you haven't heard of or been to a Just Between Friends sale yet - it is a must!

I do I have to say that I was a little disappointed at first but I won't be next time because now I know what to expect!

First of all, if you are a 1st time mom (within the last 12 months) and have never been, you can sign up online for their pre-sale events... 1st pick of everything!
Second, don't go until you know the sex of your baby. Otherwise you really can't shop for clothes because while you can pick through it all to find those "gender neutral" items, everything is separated by boy/girl.
Third, if you are looking for specific or in demand items and can't take advantage of the pre-sale, you must get there 1st thing on the 1st day. I was looking for big furniture items but went on the second day and in the afternoon so there was only a total of 3 cribs, 4 changing tables and no dressers left. None of which were cute. Boo! :(

I wandered around this expo center for a good 2 hours checking out the clothes, shoes, blankets, strollers, toys... etc! All I came out with was a set for $13 which included 5 onsies (brand new tag says $22!), a receiving blanket, and two sleeper shirts. Check it out!
It was my very first purchase since we found out that we were expecting so it was very exciting for me! I wish Adam was not out fishing with the boys tonight so I could show them off... soon enough! At this point I am feeling like Baby Schultz is destined to wear only green and yellow! How do people plan without finding out the sex???

Anyway, the next JBF event that I'll be attending is next month over in Couer d'Alene. I cannot wait because I'll definitely be getting there early and Pepper is coming with her son Chase. Then in November there is one in Tacoma - hopefully I can make that one too with my mom! Plus by November we should know if we are Team Blue or Team Pink! Woot Woot!
