Well, I most happy to report that our expedition was a smashing success. After only two stores --The Children's Place and Old Navy, many clearance racks, and lots of strangers telling me how cute my baby is in her leg warmers (it's true, she is), we came away with all of this:
That right there is
3 pairs of matching pj's (how fun is that?)
10 shirts
4 dresses
2 incredibly cute plaid hats
2 pairs of shoes
1 pair of knee-high socks
4 pairs of leggings
3 pairs of pants
2 baby rompers (I think that's what they're called?)
and 3 skirts.
Everything all together cost less than $150. Now, in case you didn't do the math, that is an average of a little over $4 per item.
Booyah.
As a reward for my diligent bargain-hunting, I got myself a few things too... of course. :) These adorable flats literally fell into my hands as I was rummaging through other things. The fact that they were children's shoes didn't stop me from purchasing them. (what. I have small feet.)
I had to laugh at my $2 shirt because really, it's just so true for us right now. And in all honesty it will probably be worn as a pj shirt-- while we watch TV and cuddle and be the homebodies that we are. Very appropriate indeed.
So, yes, I am quite pleased-- and grateful-- with the results of our afternoon's endeavors, and very excited to dress my girls in their fun new things.
I think they're pretty excited too. New clothes are always a cause for glee, wouldn't you agree?

YOu are all the most adorable little homebodies:)
i am particularly fond of the raspberry colored skirt with the mustard yellow accents. i think i even pointed it out to lorie last time we were in old navy. is that where you got it? (Lorie was still pregnant and i was trying to get a feel for her style in clothes in case she had a girl).

I must agree with the sisters...seeing that adorable baby and her chubby leg rolls in leg warmers must be a site for sore eyes!! :)
You SCORED big time my friend!!!! I completely LOVE Old Navy and their clearance racks...there is simply nothing better!
Wow I am so impressed! I was hoping for a picture of a cute little baby in leg warmers though! And I LOVE your shirt ... I would SO wear it out! You are too cute Talia =)
Well, it's decided. You're taking me shopping and showing me your bargain shopping ways. I am your student... teach me. ;)
YAY! for bargains! :)) I am sadly disapointed that there is no picture of that cute little baby girl in leg warmers though! :() lol All these clothes are fun looking and very cute! WAY TO GO MAMA!!
Wow, crazy deals! I LOVE a good sale, and I swear when it comes to kids clothes sometimes I want to procreate just so that I can dress babies in cute clothes.
Obviously that's not a good enough reason, but it's tempting.
I so want to go shopping now!! I haven't even started looking through the boys' stuff to see what still fits and what we need to buy. I should do that soon. I love your shirt and shoes! And the girls are so cute laying across their new clothes! I want to buy a bunch of clothes for myself and do that very thing. :)
Jackpot!! So cute and so fun! I love shopping with the girls!
oh wowwwwweeee! look at all that CUTE little girlie loot!!!!!!!! I love shopping for my kids, isn't it SO fun?!
i love that you got them matching jammies! i love matching jammies! lol! oh who am i kidding, i just love matching! ;)
Missed this one too!:( Love the picture with Emma and Annabelle swimming in their sea of new clothes. How fun is that? Makes me fondly remember our family shopping trips with you all in tow and returning with bags of new things and having to do a fashion show so we could have everyone else marvel at how wonderful and stylish we looked!
Ok, I'm finally looking at this on a computer rather than my phone and able to see more detail. I saw those shoes in Old Navy- your shoes- they are SO CUTE! Also- those tiniest baby crocs I've ever seen?? OH BOY- CUTE!
WOw! Great finds, Talia! And I love that shirt! Staying in is wayyyy cooler than going out in my opinion! And those butterfly shoes are too cute! You got such a lovely pile of loot there! All the pinks and purples! Fun! ANd yes, yay for matching PJs!
