Our blue Bumbo. These retail for $39.99 and I picked this one up for $15. It was used ONCE and the seller's son's legs were too chubby and it didn't work for them.
Our aqua Combi (very similar to a Pack n Play). It is not even a year old and has great features like a changing table, bassinet, lights, sounds, vibrating thingy. :) They retail for $119.99 and I bought it for $50.00. It was very gently used.
I also found a Moby Wrap used only a couple of times. This pic is from the website but the one I bought was black. I got it for $20 and they retail for $39.99. I'm excited to explore the world of baby wearing. I think the bonding will be great and so will the convenience of not needing to always push around a stroller.
I also have drawers of very gently used clothes in small sizes (to tide us over until baby shower time) in name brands that I got for 75% or more off of what you'd pay in stores. Our little guy will look cute rocking his Carters and GAP clothes that I got a steal on. :) We're slowing getting more and more prepared and can't wait to meet our son! Keep praying for birth mom and dad and their hard days to come.

Great finds! I want a mobi wrap too!
Wonderful finds! You will LOVE the moby wrap when the baby is little- it's so comfy and easy and natural. My parents have a pack and play and it's great for the baby.
As for the bumbo, we (yes all 3 of us!) love it. The baby won't be able to use it until about 3 months. Also, I can't imagine how big the previous owner's baby's legs were! My son has HUGE thighs and he fits in it fine (though it's a bit tricky lifting him out!)
Thanks for visiting my blog and letting me know you're here! I'll be back, I'm so excited to hear about your arrival!!
Great finds. We are using the Bumbo seat with our daughter right now. She loves it. I think she feels like a big girl in it.
I LIVE for craigslist. I think I might be addicted...seriously. I have bought and sold so many things! I even go to the extent of picking trash and THEN selling...okay enough airing of my dirty laundry :)
Everything you got is so cute! I too want to use a wrap. I heard they're especially nice for adopting families, for bonding purposes. I'm hoping to wear one even around the house, when our baby is a newborn. Nice find!
You rock! I think I'm gonna have to take part in this great site as I get rid of some of my old house stuff to get new stuff for my new house! Yippee! :)
Wowo, what great finds. I love that pack n play.
Yay for Craigslist. We used it alot in Boston and are so glad Nebraskans are catching on! You'll love your Moby. We have a red one and it is fabulous. Evan has loved it since day one. I ordered mine online, but just saw that they sell them at Target now. So excited for you friend.
What's a Bumbo?
Ashley, this is all really exciting! You'll be a great momma when the time comes. Prayers with you and the birth parents in the next weeks.
