I do love a good thrift, and maybe we could go together when I'm in town? Little man clothes are such a novelty to me!

Anyone can find baby stuff there. But finding the perfect little onesie at a thrift store ( i.e. the striped scooter one in the picture) really taps into your pioneer-woman-resourcefulness pride. I think there is a strong nesting push during early labor. But apparently many women also experience a prolonged burst of energy during their later second/ early third trimesters. I never got that. Trying not to feel cheated and bitter... Rachelle,

Actually a long time ago I bought a little onesie with tiny strawberry print at Goodwill, despite not being pregnant, just as a little wish for the future. I think I still have it somewhere. I've heard the full out, clean-the-baseboards type of nesting is closer to labor? I can’t wait for nefting someday!
