I’ve been busting my butt this weekend trying to get my shit stuff together for a huge children’s consignment sale happening this week at the fairgrounds. I can’t believe all of the clothes I have to get rid of! We aren’t sure if we are done having children, but other than keeping a bag or so of “special” clothes for each of the two kids, I am selling or giving away the rest. There’s so much involved in getting the stuff ready, I’m feeling seriously overwhelmed. I should have started last month preparing, but no, last-minute Amy is my name; last-minute preparations are my game. ;) (Did I mention I’m a dork?)
No time for blogging other than to quickly fill you in on a few good contests currently going on in the blogosphere. Check them out. :)
Nell at Casual Friday Everyday is giving away one full year access to “Menu Planning Centralâ€. This is a $239.64 value.
The Blessed Nest is giving away a $100 gift certificate for use at their own Blessed Nest store.
Mom Views is giving away a Diaper Vest by DadGear.
Mama Mio is giving away a Chic Tots Chic&Cozy Blanket/Bag in a stylish fuschia bloom print.
Steph at Adventures in Babywearing is giving away a t-shirt from Rusty Bumper, as well as letting us in on a 10% off discount code for Urban Baby Runway.
And, don’t forget, I’m giving away a reusable grocery bag.
This last link isn’t to a contest, but I wanted to share about an online store I recently discovered. It’s called Trendy Tadpole, which features cute and funny baby clothes. My favorites from the store are the “AB/CD” design (see below) and the “Boy in Black” design. I’d love either of those for Julian. The site’s logo, which is a picture of a frog with “oh snap” on it, is adorable too and is available on shirts as well.
Stumble it!

Even though we’ve decided we are done done with babies, I’m having a difficult time getting rid of clothes. But you are inspiring me! As soon as the kids start preschool in a Sept, I’m going to sort clothes and start selling!
