Baby Hugs

Recently, Madeline has started giving out

hugs.

She runs up to me,

wraps her tiny arms around my legs

and squeezes.

Before I can blink, she is off and running,

to bigger and better things.

I love that sweet baby and her

baby hugs!

Free Initial Tee

I mentioned, my friend, Melissa in my last post! Guess what??!! She is giving away an item from her etsy store!!!! Yay! Go check out her blog for more info!

Cupcakes at Pre-school

I took cupcakes {yummy} to Kaylie's pre-school class, in celebration of her fifth birthday.

These were so much fun to make!!

My girl will be 5 on Saturday! {gasp}

I should mention, if you like Kaylie's "5" shirt you have to visit Melissa's ETSY store! She is a very talented and creative friend of mine!! She recently moved to Kentucky {tear}.

She did not make this shirt; unfortunately I didn't think to order one from her in time! This was my poor attempt to duplicate one of her tees! I actually "Liquid Stitched" the "5" on...lol! Melissa's tees are much better quality! I assure you she does not use liquid stitch! Please check out her store! I just love her stuff! Check out her blog too! She and her husband have four fabulous kiddos and she always has something fun to blog about!

CO2

Today, I received a Fed Ex package that included a few blocks of dry ice.

Kaylie...
and her Daddy{grin}...

had a lot of fun playing with it!

It's all about Kaylie

We went to Kaylie's "open house" at her pre-school on Friday. Yes...my girl is starting pre-K. I can't believe it! Anyway, she was so excited that her teacher gave her an assignment to do over the weekend. She couldn't wait to get home and do her "home work". Haha!

Sweet and Sassy

Kaylie and my niecy girl, Alyssa, got their hair cut at "Sweet & Sassy" today. They both have a flower, and lots of glitter in their hair, and they smell of cotton candy. {Yummy} Oh, what a fun day it was! I heart my girlie girls!

Coupons, coupons and more coupons

Okay, so I admit it, I'm a little crazy when it comes to organizing things. Especially my coupons! I use baseball card holders to keep track of my coupons. My coupon binder also has a compartment for all of my sales flyers for the week.

Today, I spent $20.48 at CVS. I had $23.89 worth of coupons! Here is the best part...I earned $18 worth of Extra Care Bucks to spend at my next visit!! So, basically I paid $2.48 for $44.xx worth of products.

I also went to Publix and spent $64.05, and I SAVED $64.54 {grin}. I had $36 worth of coupons and saved about $28 with BOGO and advertised sales! So, it pays to be organized...right?
