Hey, I'm back!

Okay, so I know I am horrible at this blogging thing. I was working and tired and I can make a million excuses as to why I haven't been on here, but to be honest, I just haven't had anything to write about. We moved, I quit me job, I am now a proud Aunt ( =] ) Well, I just thought I would update for now since its been so long since my last post. I promise though, I will post tomorrow, along with pictures =] My daughter is going to grandma's tonight so Mommy and Daddy get a night off!

A month from, well...

So I havent been on here often because about 3 hours after my last post, my amazing daughter decided to plug  something into my dc jack on my computer... Needless to say my laptop is ruined in the power department. To fix it will cost almost the same as a new laptop, so we are working on that now... Then about a week ago, my husbands transmission went out in his car. Since we are new to this budgeting, saving money, couponing lifestyle, we don't have any money saved up for repairs. He can fix it which saves about $1000 since a new transmission cost $1200 and he can get the parts for $200 at his work. I know we are very blessed to have him as a mechanic in his spare time and working at an automotive store. Another blessing is having two cars. =]

So for now, there won't be any pictures of my shopping trips because 1, I don't have a computer to take them off my camera.. And 2 I won't be doing any shopping in the next few weeks.

But since I hate to leave on a bad note, Kenna now knows where her ear, feet, belly, mouth, hair, and eyes are! The ear, hair and mouth are new this week! =]

Happy Earth Day!!

Did not do a whole bunch today except carpool to save the environment! I did recieve a free Glade Spring Collection coupon today since their website was denying me any access to coupons a few weeks ago. But I also got my student loan bill... =[ Not too long though and we will be %100 debt free!

I also started a new job this week! I wasn't really looking for a job because my husband had wanted me to stay at home with our daughter, but this was a pretty amazing offer and it is only 2-3 days a week. =]

Well, other than that nothing really important going on, but I figured I better write in here today so I don't forget about it again =] I will be posting pictures later of my coupon binder that Collin at hip2save.com showed me how to set up! =]

Bye for now!

What was in my mailbox!

Horray! My mailbox trip today!!

My Target Trip!

So its only taken me a few weeks to finally upload my picture from Target! This was my first big coupon trip and I spent $0.11 out of pocket for about $100 worth of items!!! Woooo!!! Now I just have to spend $15 for printer ink because I wore out my printer!

This week...

So this week will be great once hubby gets paid! =] Thursday Kenna has her 15 month shot's dr appointment which won't be good on her part, BUT I get to get ink for my printer which ran out yesterday, Walgreens & Target shopping! Plus sometime this week I should get my $20 Target gift card from Plum district. I feel horrible for Kenna though because we have to miss baby yoga and she has to get shots. She looks forward to yoga and once she realizes we aren't on the highway to go to Springfield she will be bummed.. But I will get her ice cream after shots so she won't be too mad that we have to go shopping after. =]

I will post thursday my deals that I got to score! It won't be nearly as good as everyone elses deals since I am new but I am quite excited for what I have listed so far! =]

Welcome!

Hello everyone! I am a mommy to my beautiful 15 month old daughter and married to my best friend as of November 6, 2010. This will be my little area of space to write about the deals I score as I learn more and more about couponing and sales as well as getting my own space to write about the up's and downs of being a young mom while trying to have another baby! =]
I hope you come back!
