Preparing for more

Part of the interesting part of fostering is not knowing what you are going to need.  We know we will be taking in kids from birth to 3 years.  The thing with fostering is sometimes you get a kid in the middle of the night.  So how do you prepare for that.....craigslist.  J and I have been looking at things we will need and yesterday he hit the jackpot.  We got a van full of things from one person.

 Sweet Baby Boy was so excited to go get things for the new kids.  He couldn't wait to help J fill the jogging strollers tires with air as soon as we got home.
 We got a crib, with a mattress, a blanket with matching sheet and crib bumper.  That adorable giraffe mobile and a uhhh I don't know what you call the other thing but it's cute and the baby will like it.
 Since we picked it all up while Princess and Little Man were at school J wanted to leave it all out in the living room for them to see when we got home.
 Sweet Baby Boy was excited that this came in the loot.
 We got two strollers.  One is a jogging stroller and the other is just your regular kind.

 We also got two highchairs.  As you can see we have one of the more traditional kind and also one that attaches to your table.  I am super excited about these guys.
A pack n play that has a diaper changing station attachment.  This will be very handy if we get a newborn since we could just set it up in our room.

Let's see what else was there....a potty training chair, plus another that just sits on top of your potty lid so the kiddo doesn't fall in, a small box with some bibs and clothes, a Halloween outfit, life jacket, a baby bath tub, and a bumbo.  We got all of that for 120 bucks!!  That was a steal.
