1 candle on his cake

My baby is a whole year old! His actual birthday was Thursday, the 24th, but his FIRST 1st birthday party was today, at Chik-fil-a, and he will have a SECOND 1st birthday party NEXT Saturday (kinda hard to get all our family together in one place)

eli in his highchair

just wanted to share this pic from a couple weeks ago. he LOVED sitting in his high chair at first, but now, if there isn't any food on the tray, he escapes.

Cheesin

This is the "momma you love me even though i'm diggin in stuff i'm not supposed to be diggin in" face!

shoes

Just wanted to brag on my new shoes. They were only $15 thanks to my mom, we saw a sale B1G1 50% on already-clearanced shoes. So she got hers for $30 on clearance and then told me to pick a pair, so mine were $15, on clearance for $30, regular price $60.00. Not bad huh?!

More Huggies!!

As if I don't already have enough, but I just can't help myself....I was grocery shopping at Albertson's and they still have the Huggies on BOGO and I still had the stinkin' coupons in my purse....might as well get some right?

2 Huggies wash @ 3.99/ea= 7.98
-BOGO sale= 3.99
-(2) $1/1 mfr q's
$1/ea. These are lavendar, so I won't be using them on Eli. Did you know lavendar promotes growth of breast tissue in males? No man boobs for Eli, thank you. But Anniston can use them.

4 Huggies cleanteam wipes @ 1.49/ea= 5.96
-BOGO sale= 2.98
-(2) $1/1 mfr q's
.49/ea. not bad!!

Bargain of the Day

I have been wondering how Physician's Formula compares to Bare Esscentuals. I had seen this gift set in the Rite Aid clearance bin several times but there was no price on it. Today I asked the cashier, she said it was marked down to 6.97. I was like "YES!" I ran out to the truck to grab the $5 off coupon I swiped from Walgreens. Then I came back in and "bought" it for 2.53 after tax. (They actually bought it for me, with a free gift card they gave me for transferring a prescription there.) Not bad huh? Each item separately is priced around $11-$12 in the store. If you find yourself on the corner of Ambassador and Kaliste Saloom, go steal a coupon from Walgreens and then go use it across the street at Rite Aid. Hurry there's only one left!
