I've bought my first item off of Craig's List! Daniel saw me looking at the website the other night and groaned. Such little faith that man has in me! I was thrilled to find a wooden dollhouse. I have been wanting to give Eve one for awhile now but was being very picky.
Sunday night we set off to check it out. And oh, what a lovely trip it was. Not really. The baby was screaming her head off, the kids were in high anticipation of our weekly Sunday night surprise, Daniel was having a terrible time finding the movie he had in mind for the kids, and it was getting really late. Oh, and did I mention we didn't have any definite directions? But it was so worth all the trouble.
One wooden dollhouse with an open floor plan - perfect. A huge bag of wooden furniture and wooden dolls - major bonus!! And I paid just fifty dollars for it. I was more than happy to buy it for that amount of money, but I did feel bad because the woman could have sold it for WAY more than that. The furniture itself is a treasure!
I am so looking forward to my girls playing with it. Heck, who am I kidding.... Judah will be playing with it just as much as Eve and Eliza.

I love Craig's list! I've gotten a couple things off it and I haven't been disappointed yet! The doll house looks really neat...!
Sounds like a treasure.
What a great deal! Do you have any more pictures of it?
Miller plays with all of Madison's babies and strollers...Scott just loves it...not.
The doll house sounds very nice.
We love Craigs list! I've bought and sold quite a few things on there.
Sounds like an adorable doll house. I LOVE wood toys.

I'm with New Girl on Post - can we see a picture? It reminds me so much of my childhood! I got one when I was 4 - and we had it until we moved to New Zealand when I was 14 - we'd probably still have it otherwise. We had the coolest furniture and Gramma loved sending new rugs and such for Christmas! Hope your kids have years of wonderful pretend with it!
Sweet gift. I love Craig's List... some good find waiting to be found!
haha, my boys love to play with dolls too :)
I've never shopped Craig's list. But I'm beginning to think I need to check it out! What a great find!
I've actually never bought anything from Craig's list, but we have sold a ton of things on it!
Sounds like you found a great buy! Are you going to share more pics?!?!
That is so cute!!! I love it and that doll's hair makes me think we may be related somehow!!!

I really like Craig's List, too! Last year, we sold our car in just one day after a friend told us about it. The doll house sounds adorable. . . I'm sure it'll get lots of use!
I love Craig's list, but it's very addictive and scary LOL
The doll house is such a great deal.
LOL at the Judah playing with it too, Nicholas would be all in there as well :)
Score--I'm glad it was worth the pain in the keister to get there! I love the look of it!
