Rhea Lana

Danielle and I hit the Rhea Lana sale a few weeks ago and made a hall on some adorable baby girl clothes!

Danielle is expecting a baby girl in July, so we got to early to the mommy to be sale!  We had so much fun picking out clothes for baby Cunningham and Miss Ava Kate!  

 They had soooooo many baby girl clothes to choose from!  Baby Cunningham and Ava Kate are definitely set on clothes until next fall....they even have a matching summer outfit!

Josh and I have been going to Rhea Lana since before Owen was born, but this was probably my most  successful shopping trip yet!! Owen only got 2 shirts and 2 pairs of shorts because there were very few 3T things to choose from.  Ava Kate, on the other hand, got so many things that I had a hard time choosing a "few" of my favorites for the blog!  

Rhea Lana

Another Rhea Lana experience....but this time I got to shop on both the girls and boys side!  My mom-to-be pass was for Saturday at 4:00pm on one of the hottest days of the year!  But it was inside, so no big deal, right??  WRONG....they were having problems with air-conditioner so it was just as miserably hot inside as it was outside.  We had already driven to Rogers and waited in line, so I decided to stay and deal with it! To speed up the process,  Josh and I decided to split and concur.  He focused on Owen and Toys while I hit up the girls section.  Despite our efforts, I was only able to make it through a 1/3rd of the baby girl clothes before I had to throw in the towel.  Owen is at an age where most of the clothes are really worn, so we only found one pair of pants worth buying....but we ended up with some really good finds for Ava!  Here are a few of my favorites!

a few precious Zutano outfits

I thought this orange and black tutu would be perfect for Halloween.  She'll only be 1 week old, so I figure all the Halloween costumes will be too big!  

Love this little Mud Pie outfit...can't wait to see it on Miss Ava Kate!!

two adorable polo dresses

Baby Nay and Baby Gap...so cute!

Rhea Lana

Rhea Lana is a children's consignment sale here in Northwest Arkansas. They have a sale twice a year (one in the fall and one in the spring) with about 50,000 items each time. It is major chaos with a lot of moms rushing around to get the first pick.

Josh was really "excited" that

he got to go...can't you tell?

The first time I experienced Rhea Lana, I was only 10 weeks pregnant with Owen. It was in a small/crowded building, I didn't know what I was having, and I was really overwhelmed...so I ended up only buying a few maternity clothes. Since then, they have moved venues and are now at the John Q Hammons center in Rogers, which is much more spacious..thank goodness! It's still very chaotic and the lines are pretty long, but you can find some great deals. This was only Josh's second time to Rhea Lana...it's a miracle I ever got him to go back after the long line he had to stand in the first time, but it definitely goes a lot faster when there's two of you. Our strategy this year was to split up and then go through everything while we stood in line...I stuck to the clothes and Josh hit the toys, shoes, and some clothes. We ended up finding some really cute things for really cheap...it was totally worth it! Here are a few pictures of my favorite finds...
