rambles

I go through spurts with blogging. I don't know why. I wish I were more consistent. I'm going to try, which I always say.

Callie has recently got me into couponing.... I know. It's nerdy, whatever i'm saving my family a TON and getting some nearly free stuff along the way!! You should check out http://www.frugallivingnw.com/ and www.hip2save.com both are pretty rad and you can even make money buying the things you would already need!! How neat.

This week I was super stoked because I went to Freddy's where they had a sale on 7th generation natural chlorine free diapers they are 50% combined with my $2 manufactures coupon (that you can print online) when you buy two and my rewards rebate. I only paid $3.31 for two packs of awesome diapers! Love it!


In other news Quinn and Deacon are awesome. I love being their mom. I am humbled on a daily basis by how awesome these kids are. Today Deacon was a pill but in all of his screaming and wiggle and crying, it was beautiful. What he wanted was to connect with his mommy and be loved and cuddled. That's all. It's so simple for children to find their comfort and so often I think i'm "too busy" to give it to him. I adore that child. Quinn is the single silliest, sweetest, and smartest kid i've ever known (yes, i do realized EVERYONE says this about their child... get off me she is.) Today she was terrified of the vacuum and she just clung to my chest petting my hair and whispering mama, only to get up when Auntie Callie was done and run around with no pants on giggling. She has such extreme emotions and moods, I can barely keep up but I love it. She also wanted to hang out with me while I was cleaning to so she sat on my shoulders, held onto my neck and snuggled my head while I ran around cleaning it was awesome!

Okay now it's time to stop rambling and go watch Modern Family with the love of my life!

peace. aj.
