Coupons & Parties

Today I am thankful for ... coupons~ Ha that sounds so funny!
If you knew me you would know I am BIG into coupons & can get alot of stuff for a little $$ or almost free. For instance I got 12 packs of Huggies wipes 218 ct refill & 4 Jumbo packs of Huggie diapers for a total of 5.00. Yes.... $5.00
and NO I am not pulling your leg.
I also just got 12/ 12 packs of Pepsi for 10.00.
4 things of All almighty lndry soap for 4.96
6 things of campbells tom/ chicken noodle soup for Free
2 12' Frozen red baron pizzas for Free
3 jars of pickles FREE
12 bars of Johnson & Johnson buddy sudsy soap bars FREE

Ok I think you get the idea. Its not that I am looking for something free. I just am trying to save money, cut corners and save. I would love to adopt again and with an economy that has been shaking I worry that we may never feel safe or comfortable adopting. So that is why coupons are important... to help us be able to have a better chance of that. My husband is a cars saleman & truly I can not complain to much he was doing pretty well up till the last 2 months ... they have been slow. Not his fault..... Just signs of the times. As my dad would say


So anyway I read a blog about a lady who trys to save and see even post coupons & stuff. Well I signed up for this thing she had to get coupons for Juicy juice & a chance to have a Juicy Juice Shining Moments House Party. Several ( hundreds of people did this) and never got picked from her blog. I got picked and here is what they are sending for our little party for Jacob & his friends.

Good night

I'm Still Here.....

today I am thankful for a moment of sanity. My mom & dad took Jacob to their house. Which gave me a chace to get my work done and clean the house and tag some stuff for the multiple of mothers sale that is coming up. Lately I feel like I have no time. I have to admit we have been spending as much time out side weather permitting. Also I have been reading a book in my spare time. New Moon the second book from movie Twilight. Then I will move on to the next one. Its the first time in a LONG time I have read a book. to bad these were not out when we traveled to Vietnam to adopt. I mainly read childrens books ... to my son... not to myself...silly~

Also Jacob has been crazy. Into everything! running, jumping, and just being a boy. A few saturdays back he hit his eye on the open car door when I got him out of his car seat he threw his head back cause he was mad I would not let him run all over the garage bare foot... ( yea my son takes his shoes off any chance he gets) I did not think he needed stitched but figured since it was his eye better to be safe than sorry so I took him the urgent care... 4 stitches.... and then a black eye... Lovely~ it was horrible. I felt so bad I had to hold him down while they did it. And I could have sobbed but I knew if I did he would be worse. So I held it together. Barely!

Well stitches are out. 3 days later rolling on the floor the corner reopened. they rechecked & said he would be fine. I hope it does not scar. Any thoughts on how to keep it from scarring please comment.... thanks~

I always worry but I think I even worry more now if that is possible. I might put him in a bubble. I kep t calling him my little bruiser... my football player... he would just growl...

My poor little guy... I love him so much

Anyway so really Jacob & I have just been busy...going to the park, walking and now movie night with my friend and her children which are his friends. One of gets the movie and brings dinner & the other brings drinks & desserts. and then we switch next time. Its nice

Well I better go... here are some pic's
