Already April. Where is this year going? It looks like we may have some April showers today. Lets see whats going on. This weekend my hubby decided to take me out for our 11 year anniversary which is not until Friday but with his work schedule next weekend we wouldn't of been able to go anywhere. We went to Bravo's. Last time we went I wasn't impressed and this time I'm still not hooked on the place. I ordered the calamari it was ok but not the best I ever had. I actually sat there and peeled the fried stuff of and just ate the calamari by itself. Then I had a salad and the soup of the day was creamy asparagus it was like eating baby food. Emma didn't like it either but then again she doesn't eat baby food. She rather eat off of our plate. Then we went to the mall to find me a ring. I wasn't finding the one I really wanted. I wanted something white gold and plan and simple but the girl said they didn't really have anything like that. I did find one that matched my bracelet that he just bought me for Valentines day so I guess it worked out. My mom ordered me a mini loaf pan and gave it to me already. I am so excited and not sure what I want to make in it yet. So many different ideas are running through my head. Today I am going to try and make it to Kid to Kid our local consignment shop. They are giving 30% store credit on items that are given. I have a big bag and a basket full of clothes and shoes. I also want to look for a bow for Katies hair for her graduation. I may do flowers instead. Haven't decided yet. I like to check out other things they have in there. Sometimes you can find a good deal. Our netflix movie this weekend was Nanny McPhee Returns. The girls loved it and want to put it on their wish list. Its a cute movie. Our next movie will be Legend of the Guardians. We are wait listed for Tangled and Jackass 3. Tangled might be in their Easter basket. Its another one on their wish list. I seen a cute little skirt that I would love to get for Sara for her to wear for her birthday. She is such a girly girly and loves to be dressed up. The mom whos little girl I seen it on said she got it from Target last year. So now I am on the hunt for that.

Sunday March 27, 2011

Where to start? I'm still sick since I can't take much of anything. We woke up to water in my middle bathroom and kitchen due to a busted water heater on Friday. That was a full day there but then my mom started a new job and alot of her work will be done at home so her stuff started coming in and I helped her put everything in its place. Trying to figure out where things can be set up. That was 13 boxes of fun.

We recently watched Legion on the netflix instant watch and it was a very interesting movie. End of the world movie where God doesnt' think there is enough good to continue human kind living so he sends his angels to kill everyone. One angel works against the others to save a baby because he needed to show God there is still some good in this world. Pretty good movie but too scarey for the kids.

We also watched the movie Jackass 2.5. It was a pretty gross movie. Not sure why people think it is so funny to watch grown men take a crap. Also throwing up. Not a movie I would recommend to anyone especially those with a weak stomach.

With my mom starting a new job she has to learn the body's anatomy and I sent this anatomy arcade to her to make it fun. Maybe it will make it a little easier to learn and I will put it up on the kids account when they need to learn it.

Yesterday my mom and I went shopping for Katies Kindergarten graduation dress. Since its before easter we figured it would be easier to find one now instead of later. We went to alot of stores before finally finding alot in her size at burlington. We were able to find a Ruby Rox light pink dress for only $20. Its just like the picture except its light pink. Now we need to find shoes and a bow for her hair. Its so cute and grown up.

We stopped at Target and found these cute shoes for Sara. They were $14.99. I wish they would of had Katies size but we only found up to size 11 in the store. Online only has up to 9.

I am trying to get together little white dresses for the girls and white shirts for Sammy and I to go take some really good professional pictures at city park. I have a certain way I want it to look in my head and trying to find the girls the dresses seems to be the hardest part. Then I have to get my hair cut and I want everything done before it starts getting too hot. So many small details to go into just trying to get family pictures done. I did find Katies dress so 1 down 2 to go.

Already Monday. Katie will be going to school today but it will be hard for me to get there this week. Which is not a good thing b/c we have a book fair this week and no parents ever show up to help even if its to walk their own kid around. I have 2 sick little girls and myself to worry about. I didn't even get a packet to go over with Katie what she would like to buy. This will be one of her gifts for making all A's on her report card. Yesterday since we were resting I was able to finish reading my book.

Lost recipe for Happiness. Very good book. A plus with all of the recipes inside. I haven't tried any of them yet but the churros might be one that I do try. Its about a woman named Elena who was in a car accident when she was younger the only one who survived. The ones that she had lost come and visit her through out the book. In a good way not haunting her. More of encouragement. Shes a chef and just been fired from her job b/c an article was written about her instead of the head chef. As she is walking out of the restaurant the owner Julian is pulling up. Takes her to breakfast to talk about her becoming the head chef of a restaurant that he just purchased. She agrees and moves to Aspen. It takes a while for the restaurant to open with all the details that have to be set. During this Elena and Julian fall in love but b/c of her past she is having trouble letting him into her heart. In the end one of the good chefs gets in a bad car accident and brings up past. She finally goes to the place where the accident happen to let it go. When she comes back she is then ready to let Julian in. The book ends with a recipe for Mexican wedding cookies which I would love to try. So the read is left to think that they did get married.

We didn't feel like cooking so hubby decided to just order pizza. I was not crazy for dominos before but like the commercial kept saying they have changed. It was super easy to order. I didn't even call them. I went online to their website dominos.com . I put in our zipcode and started our order. I built the pizza how I wanted which was extra pepperoni. The deal was 2 medium 2 topping pizza's for $5.99 each. I also got chicken wings 8 for $5.99. I was impressed with the taste of the pizza not so much with the wings. They pour a whole bottle of sauce on 8 wings way too much. After I placed the order they have a little tacker to tell you wants going on with your pizza. I thought was pretty neat. Next time you order try it through their website.

The whole family is now sick. Hate when that happens. Hubby is in bed trying to sleep it off while I try and keep the kids quiet.

Yesterday we tried to take the kids to the zoo for the earth fest. It was so busy we could not find a parking spot.

I really wanted to buy the Johnette Downing book and CD Today is Monday in Louisiana.

So we decided to take the girls to Destrahan Plantation. Fun to learn how and where people lived back in the old days. Could you imagine taking 1 bath once a year and in this order? Dad, Mom and then oldest to youngest child in the same bath water? Dinner being a 2 1/2 hour event where everyone dressed up in their finest and you had to be at least 11 years old to eat with your parents. Then at 14 you had to move out. Married men and women slept in different rooms and if the husband wanted to get with the wife he would have to write and send it to the wife and wait to be invited into her bedroom. Of course my kids didn't know what they were talking about but they did like looking at the things. Never too old to learn something new or something old in that case. Makes you think about how different life was back then.

On the way home we found a meat store right across the river called Emmet's. We purchased an artichoke stuffed chicken for $12 and want to try that out this week. Nice to have a place alittle closer then the butcher block which has moved farther away.

After that we decided it was time to come home and rest while watching movies on our netflix account through our xbox which is really awesome. It is so worth having when you like watching movies.

We watched Queen of the Damned I know an old movie but it was still nice to watch. Its about vampires and a girl wanted to be a vampire who also grew up around vampires. Of course in the end she gets her wish and is turned into a vampire.

Then Happily N'ever after 2 for the girls. It was a cute movie. Teaching the girls how its not just whats on the outside but what is on the inside. Its good to be nice to others. Did it help them change of course not but for them to see how things turn out when people are mean and then the difference you can make when you are nice. Its worth watching.

Since we are sick we decided to order some soup from Chan's Far East. 2 x-large wonton soups, comb fried rice and crab ragoons. It was very yummy and made us feel a bit better. Now its time to go rest talk to you tomorrow.

Proud Parent

My daughter who is 5 and in kindergarten got all A's on her report card. I am very proud of her. I remember when I was in kindergarten I was just learning my ABC's and now a days they should already know them. She can read which is super awesome. She reads signs while driving on the road or tv shows that we watch and gets excited about it. She is realizing that she can also read most of the books that is on her bookshelf. Great job Katie, keep up the good work.

update

I spend way too much time on facebook now a days. Cafe world is my new thing. Its easy to sit at the computer while feeding and putting to sleep my little one. I just got an email from bzzagent. I haven't been on there since 2009. Which is pretty bad. I don't even check my email much anymore. One day I will be able to come back to the blog full time. Until then I hope everyone if anyone still reads this is having a blessed life.

Saturday November 13, 2010

This week went by pretty fast. I spent pretty much all day Thursday trying to catch up on clothes. After 5 batches there was still a basket full. Of course I had a bag of hand me downs to wash and blankets off our bed. Can you really ever catch up with 5 people in the house? At the end of the day there is enough clothes to wash 1 batch on a good day. So I will still stick to washing at least 1 batch if not more a day.

I can't wait to see A Christmas Carol with Jim Carrey. I would like to buy the DVD right now there is a coupon for $10 off the blu-ray set. Here I will probably buy it on black Friday. I am sure they will have a deal somewhere on it.

Speaking of Black Friday Target, Toysrus, Bestbuy check it out here.

I kind of want a nook for Christmas. I miss reading a good book and there are so many out there. I have always wanted a library and this would be a way to get it.

Everything is right around the corner. Thanksgiving is only 17 days away which means Black Friday is 18 days away and Christmas is 47 days away. I have been checking Gottadeals.com for any updates on black friday store ads. Of course the ones I really want to see are not posted yet.

Every year I get some pretty good deals at halfpricemall. Its local deals but you can check out your local radio station to see if they offer anything. They have a new one every Friday. I don't see anything really jumping out at me just yet.

Also WWLTV is also offering a deal once a week on different local restaurants to try out. Why not buy it at a discounted rate? This week they are offering Flaming Torch a $50 gift card for $25. Before purchasing any of these deals make sure you read all the fine print. Some have restrictions. Only can use them on certain days or before a certain time.

Deal of the Day. Today you can get a $30 gift card for 2 Chic hair & Skin in kenner for only $15. The gift card doesn't expire until 11-30-11 so not too bad. Make a great gift. You could sign up to get an email everyday for the new deals.

38 days until free shipping day. On December 17, 2010. Check out which retailers are offering free shipping here. You can also sign up to get a reminder that day.

This is a pretty neat website if you have an iphone and would like to get some free apps. I don't have that type of phone so not sure how great the downloads are or if its just a trial on some of the stuff but its worth a try. Check it out here.

If you have a kindle you can download tons of free books. Which makes me want one. Unless I find a really cheap laptop on black friday. Hubby says I don't need a notebook but how easy would it be to have all my recipes right next to me while cooking or to be able to read these free books at night when I can't sleep. Or even if I could do things while sitting in the carpool line waiting for my daughter to get out of school. So many things to do. Anyway here is a free book Safely Home by Randy Alcorn. It has pretty good rates and one of those can't put it down books.

Wow I really have not been on here forever. Well I had the baby on July 22, 2010. Her name is Emma Isabelle. She weighted 7lbs 15.2 oz. She is already 3 months old now. Everything is going well. I did have to get myself in a routine. Very different with 3 little ones. Katie is now 5 and in Kindergarten. Sara is 3 and we are trying to get her out of sucking her thumb with the no bite nail polish. Today is day 3 using it. Last night she decided to put her other thumb in her mouth. Katie's asthma is alot more controlled this year with the meds that she is on. Of course when she gets sick it acts up and she has to do treatments. I did find out that when she coughs the mucus up and swallows it back down is what is making her throw up. So I try to tell her to start spitting it out from now on. Emma is sick with her first cold that she caught from her bigger sisters. She has been coughing for 3 weeks now. The nose spray doesn't really help so today I decided to try some lemon juice with a little sugar and water. So far she is keeping it down so thats a good sign. I did read that lemon juice also helps with asthma also. By taking a teaspoon before each meal and right before going to sleep at night. Hey its worth a try. I rather give her that then all the meds they want to put in her. So next time she is sick thats what I will do.

Almost there. I'm 37 weeks and 3 days today which was when I had my second daughter. I try not to complain too much but I do have a very long list of things that I am going through. Dr told me that now I am tired of being pregnant. Umm where have you been? I have been tired of being pregnant months ago. I don't tell my dr everything that I am going through everytime I go in. I've told her once why would I think she would keep wanting to listen to the samethings over and over again. Chocolate has been my best friend. It gets me through some hard times. lol I just love when people say your almost there.
School is not too far away. What sucks is I dont' think I will be able to drive my daughter when she starts school :'(. I just have to be there somehow. I think we are pretty ready. I lucked out and found her skorts at the family dollar. 3 pair came up to $21 can't beat that. Her pants I was able to find at walmart. They are really long so I do need to hem them. I will wait until it gets closer to the time to start wearing pants. Its so hot here I dont' think that will anytime soon.
I do have to say I am excited today b/c I was able to turn in some swagbucks today and order another amazon.com card.
Back to School- not much right now but I am sure there will be more in the upcoming weeks.

Walgreens this week- Colgate total 5.8 oz $3.49 get back $3.49 RR so freebie

This is the way I look at it with these types of deals. You have to go to walgreens or CVS for something already. So pick these things up also. Pay for them then use the rewards that you got from purchasing the other things toward what you were already buying to begin with. Just as long as its not for prescriptions. They may have other restrictions so you may want to pay attention to that also.

Wow what a busy week. Yesterday we went to check out the new Twilight saga movie Eclipse. Very good movie and of course I want to read the whole thing again and watch the movies all over and can not wait until the next movie comes out. Once all the dvd's come out I want all of them.
Katie's birthday party is this weekend so I have to get ready for that. I was giving her a pool party at my moms but the pool decided it had enough and busted. It did last for a long time though. So we will have a mini waterpark kind of thing. We will have some small pools, sprinkler, slip n slide. It should still be fun.
Besides that our week is filled with dr's appointments, shopping for school uniforms, washing clothes and still trying to get everything ready for baby. I'm exhausted just thinking about it.
