The adventures of Mommy woman
And thanks to my friend Heather

As some may know, I am expecting my third child soon.  My first two both have the Anne Geddes "My First Five Years" baby books.  I so wanted to get the same book for my third but was told it was out of print and I couldn't find it anywhere.

Luckily, for some reason, I mentioned this to my friend who started searching the internet for me.  She found used ones on a couple of sites but I really wasn't interested in anything other than a brand new baby book.  Then my wonderful friend gave me a call and told me to check out overstock.com.  There it was for only $9.95!  It was the 1996 print and exactly what I wanted!

I received the book yesterday and it is in perfect condition.  It actually cost about $5 less that what I paid for the first two.  Maybe it's silly but I kind of like the fact that all three babies will have been delivered at the same hospital, by the same group of doctors, and they will all have the same baby book.  There won't be a lot else in life that I can do as equally for them but at least they can feel that they got equal starts.

Overstock is one of my favorite sites as well.  That is why I do most of my shopping on the internet.  Let the search engines (mysimon - pricewatch - google even) do the searching!  I'll just do the buying.

Wow, Jill. Very cool.

Believe it or not, Xavier has that same baby book.

My boys were both delivered at the same hospital, by different doctors, but...I was put in the exact same room both times, lol. Crazy.

I like that site too. I thik I may even still have my copy of that book which I've used for all three of my pregnancy!

This happened with my first two pregnancies, the exact same room on the same side of the room too because I had one room mate!

I buy from Overstock.com regularly.  I got some Dr Martens for $30 there earlier this year, and I've NEVER had a problem with anything I've bought from them.

Congrats on getting your book!  It's quite a thrill to find exactly what you want at an awesome price, isn't it?  I can see whay people get addicted to eBay....
