I know I am never on here anymore. Even though I am now in my second trimester I still get tired pretty easily. I love naps. Sara is starting to sleep on her own which is helping me b/c I sleep better at night now, without little feet kicking me in the back. We decided that our carpet in the house needs to come up. Katie has been having trouble with her asthma and we hope with the carpet being up it will help not to trigger any attacks. Next month we find out if its a boy/girl. If he is a boy then we have lots to do. I only have pink clothes left from the girls. I plan to take the clothes to the store kid to kid consignment shop. They are picky about alot of the clothes they take but it will help for them just to take some and have a store credit toward the things that I do need.

With us having to pull up the carpet and paint the walls b/c I have been wanting to and why not since the carpet and all the furniture will be out of the room. I need to figure out a way to earn and save some money. My coupon book is a bit behind and with the economy the way it is its hard to find the deals as easy as it was before. I do need to get some ink in my printer b/c it seems like a lot of the awesome deals you would need to print the coupons out for. I have been spending sometime on mylot even though it take a while to add up the money on the site it pays once you get to $10 mark. I also have been trying to keep up with youdata every week. Its only about .10 cents a week but it adds up.

With it being the last weekend of the month I have a ton of coupons that are expiring and I really hate for them to go to waste. I check the coupons for small print stating that you can not use them on trial products if it doesn't have that I check out that section in the store to see what I can get for a really good deal or alot of times for free. Also checking out the family dollar and dollar generals in the area is another good way of getting some great deals. You can't use coupons at dollar tree since they make items a certain count just to be sold there and they would have to give alot of stuff away for free with coupons. I usually make a list of what coupons I have that way I don't have to stand and flip through it. Don't forget about those cereal coupons. Walmart don't have many small boxes of cereal but Winn Dixie does and the coupon usually states buy 3 get $1 off and these boxes are priced at .50 cents each so you pay .50 cents for all 3 with coupon which isn't a bad deal when you have little ones that like snacks in the store these are good to have in your bag.

I found this tip on thriftyfun.com since we are dealing with asthma problems right now I may give this a try. Use plain white distilled vinegar and water, you can use this through the house and it gives you a clean smell. It controls the dust and mold. They have many helpful tips you may want to check out on everyday living.

My husband and my grandmother have always been true Saints fans. Wore their shirts proud even before Katrina when they made it to the playoffs. Watched every single game. They won this game for you mawmaw. Now for the first time in NFL history the New Orleans Saints are going to the superbowl. It was a very close game between new orleans and minnesota but after a game fighting neck to neck, bad calls by the refs and overtime. The Saints won the game. Can't wait to see what happens in the superbowl.

Today Katie had a hard time leaving to go to school. Not sure why. Same as always but when I dropped her off gave her a hug and kiss she started to cry while walking to the gate. Poor thing. I was going to call my aunt to ask her to walk her but my phone was dead. Thankfully the teachers assistant was walking in and I asked her to help out. My heartbreaks when she starts to cry. I am sure I will be one of those moms that cry for everything.

Katie doesn't have school today. I am happy about that. I have alot of clothes to catch up on b/c I didn't do any this weekend. Hubby made a really yummy gumbo last night. I could of eaten more it was so good but then I would of burst so I stopped. I swear I feel the baby move. If I lay on my back I feel little movements and I know its not gas. Its the same spot where they listened for the heartbeat. My mom done the ring test on the chain to see what I am having and it says a boy. She did the same to hubby's hand and it also said boy. I had a feeling it was a boy for a while now. This pregnancy is just different. I crave healthy foods, I break out, and the heartbeat was slow during the ultrasound. We shall see in 2 months. On with the good stuff.

Yep this is pretty much all I do is sleep. I try to sleep during the day while my oldest is in school that way when she gets home I can stay up until bedtime. She won't let you sleep no matter what. Tomorrow will be a busy day. Pickle and Popcorn day at school. It seems there are many lazy parents out there that don't want to help get anything done at the school. I think that is pretty sad. As sleepy as I am I still drag myself and my 2 year old to the school to do things and next year I plan to try and do what I can even with 2 little ones.

Katie came home with her first progress report yesterday. She had a lot of 3's on it but some 2's and 1's which made me start thinking of areas we need to work on during the summer and what kind of projects we will do. I would love to do things to teach them how they made things in the old days before all the technology was around. I also want to do things like make a map of our area which is pretty small, study water, leaves and do other fun things. The kids love that I do these things with them. They don't realize I am trying to jam pack their little brains with all sorts of things. My list will grow as summer nears and I am getting ready for it. Another good idea I seen someone use is a calendar to mark the days as you go along which will teach them writing, counting , and days of the week. They also use a weather graph which I think is pretty neat to make them stop and take a look at the weather outside. Once I make it I will have to take a picture. We also have the girls birthday parties during the summer and the baby will be here before we know it. Alot of things to get ready for.

Its cold outside. We will have to go out later today for gymnastics and dinner. We also promised Katie we would pick up a ds game for her which means her sister will also get one. I was able to get a ds game off of amazon.com using my sawgbucks giftcards. I ended up having to pay .30 cents so not too bad. Hopefully I can find some other good games for really cheap.

Today started off with bringing my oldest to a pulmonolist. She has been having a cough for the past 4 months, since she started school. It gets much worse when she has a cold. We were told that she could have a bit of asthma. So now we are trying out an inhaler. Whatever helps her. Its horrible when she starts coughing and can't stop.
I forgot how much fun it was to do deals. I get a high off of getting good deals on things. At walgreens if you buy 8 dove products you get a $10RR. I found dove conditioner for $1.39 a bottle x8 = $11.12 - $10RR= $1.12/8= .14 cents each. Of course I did the finish dishwashing tabs deal $3.49- 2.50 MFQ from this weekends paper = .99 got back $1RR. Also did the Chips Ahoy cookies and if I would of thought about it I would of bought more. The 6oz packages are .99 cents each when you buy 2 you get back a $2 RR so that was free. Revlon Matte Eye Shadow was $4.99 - $2/1 MFQ - $3/1 in ad Q = Free. I love when they pay me to take things home. I also picked up on the aquafina cases of water they are on sale this week for $3.99 with in ad Q. Buy 4 cases get a $10RR so the math would be $23.96-$8 adQ = $15.96 - $10RR = $5.96/4=$1.49 each. Can't beat that for a case of water and name brand at that. I am very happy with what I got today.

Never a dull moment when you have kids. Last night my 2 year old decided she wanted a pickle and she was going to get it on her own. My 4 year old came to tell me this so I am running to the kitchen and right before I turned the corner. I heard the pickle jar crash on the floor. She now has 3 tiny cuts on her and Thank God that is all b/c the jar was in a million pieces.

Today my 4 year old is trying to tell me what she wants to eat for breakfast. She tells me its yellow, sqaure, crunchy and my aunt eats it at the parenting center. ??? I called my aunt to help me out. Honeycomb which we dont' have in our house. My doctors office calls me to tell me that my insurance will not process my claim until I call them and tell them that they are the only insurance that I have. Ok weird. So I call and just tell them everyones name on the policy and she says ok your good for 2 years. How crazy is that?

Yesterday I recieved in the mail a sample of kellogg's new pop tart flavor. Its Wild Grape and they have some pretty neat designs on the front of it. I pop tart flavor was pretty good. Better then the blueberry muffin one they sent to me. I don't buy kelloggs poptarts unless I find a really good deal on them. Walmart sells the big boxes of great value poptarts for pretty cheap. Nope no coupon in the box so unless great value puts it out we won't buy it.

Wow I have so many things to catch up on. I have been really bad. Getting behind on many things.
First off Happy New Years!!! I hope everyone has a wonderful year. With all kind of nice surprises in it.

I do have to tell a couple of people Happy Birthday today.
Today is my brother, Aunt Dolly and Brittney's birthday. Hope you guys have a great day.
Other news and the reason I am so behind on everything is I'm about 9 weeks pregnant so I have been taking a lot of naps when I can. So while others can't wait for their kids to go back to school from the holiday vacation. I am really enjoying sleeping in.

Black Friday

Black Friday is this month and I am really excited about it. Last year I was only able to do one store and it wasn't as fun as it usually is. I love getting up really early and standing in the cold to get that rush of getting some good for little money. I usually get most of my shopping done that day. They haven't posted many of the ads yet but I am sure they will soon come out. Even though I like looking at the ads before hand I really rather see the ad in my hand. A great site to see these are GottaDeal.com . Make sure its for 2009. Check out my counter to see how many more days you have to get ready for the big sale. If this is your first year please be careful. People go crazy over these deals.
