Week 3 Layout

I’m playing catch up tonight and posting layouts and missing photos.   So first thing first, my week 3 layout.  I just love the way this one turned out!

Day 16 – 19

Wow, I have really gotten behind on my posting this time. Oh well, at least I’m still keeping up with the picture taking. My kids are thinking I’m nuts with all the photos.

Day 16 - It seems like I don’t get as many pics of Sean as I’d like so today I caught him watching some TV and snapped the moment. Hard to believe he will be 11 on Friday.

Day 17 – We’ve been talking about letting the boys share a room for a while now but were scared if the boys would sleep good. Well on a whim we decided we wouldn’t find out unless we tried so we made the move. Great news is they are actually sleeping better!

Day 18 – This was Chase’s first ever bubble bath. He wasn’t sure what to think of the bubbles at first but it didn’t take long to start splashing and playing away.

Day 19 – I got a new Blackberry!! Woot!! Woot!! My Curve’s OS wasn’t up to par with some of the apps I was wanting to get. Danny was wanting to get himself a Blackberry so the rep worked us out a deal that benefited me too. Yay!!

Week 2 Layout is Done!

Days 14 & 15

I've gotten behind a little on posting by pics but I've been really good at least about taking one!



Day 14 - Today was grocery day. I spent a lot of time this morning planning my weekly menu (based on sales), making lists, and clipping coupons and matching with sales. I use a great site called Southern Savers to let me know where the best deals are. Today's trip was to Kroger and Publix. This is everything I got for $88.00. I saved $55.00.


Day 15 - We finally have some warm weather and sunshine! It got up to the mid 50's today and was beautiful outside so I took the boys over to play with the neighbors for a bit.

Day 13 - McDonald's Substitute

Today is day 6 of being on Weight Watchers and also doing the Biggest Loser challenge. I've been doing very well but this morning when I took Matthew to school I was really wanting to swing through McDonald's and pick up breakfast. It would have been so convenient and quick. But I resisted the urge, drove home and made my own version of an egg mcmuffin. Yes, it looks a little odd but I used 1/2 cup of egg beaters so it was too much. Next time I know that 1/4 cup will be plenty.

Egg McMuffin = 7 Points My Version = 4 Points

Day 12 - Christmas in January

Matthew looked over the backseat of my van and discovered a Christmas present that we had long forgotten about. Chase got it from his aunt and uncle at the Christmas Eve party and the present never made it into the house. So they enjoyed playing with a brand new toy yesterday!

Day 11

It's cold outside and that has been keeping the boys indoors a lot. This means we've been trying to find other things to keep them busy and entertained. Today we pulled out a puzzle that hadn't been played with in a while. I love pulling out those kinds of toys because they always have a "new" interest in them.
