Busy Morning with Mommy!

We have been staying home all weekend and its been sooo boring but its been so hot so I really don't want to take her anywhere as much. Plus I'm starting to notice some type of heat rash or eczema rash on her neck and around her mouth where her pacifier touches her cheeks. Ugh! I dont know what to put or do. =( I was thinking about buying some eczema cream but I don't know if its just a rash.

 I decided to take her bright and early before it hit 100 degrees. Lol! I took her to BRU for the Fisher Price B1G1 Sale :) I love sales! I love coupons :) I think I'm going to start posting my coupon trips. It's amazing. I love the girls on BBC that help me. I have been able to save so much money. Below were my previous trips about a month ago I think. One was at CVS and the other Kroger's. :)

Total OOP: 13 BUCKS --- SAVED: 20-30 BUCKS I think. The bread I had to get because we needed bread ASAP and I usually buy wheat but once in a blue moon buy white because sometimes a girl misses her white carbs!! LOL

 

This was a great week at CVS for me. I think it was earlier in the month of June? Total OOP 19.58 well lets just round it up to 20 bucks!!; Total Saved: 40-50 bucks? Considered a BOX of Pampers is 20 bucks by itself. I did great I think! Lol I got 2 jumbo packs of diapers and 1 big value box plus all the other extras for only $20! I have been able to save so much on diapers from couponing! Its great! I was thinking about CDing when I was pregnant. But after extensive research about it, I don't think its ideal for me. I mean I love how cute those cloth diapers are and have NO problem with them but its just not for me. I'm in love with sposies. So we have a closet full of them. Literally. Lol 

Anyway, I took Abigail out to BRU, Target, and Old Navy. Old Navy had there 20 dollar bag sale. I haven't really bought clothes for myself lately so decided to grab one for myself and DD of course. I really do like the clothes that came in the bag. I mean I was pretty scared I would hate it. I bought one for DH too and I asked him to be sure if he wants it because he's really picky. I bought one and we both don't like what came in his. I love what came in mine and Abbys. Stuff we would actually WEAR and I'm not saying it because it was only 20 bucks. We also went in Target. I love that place!!! They are starting to have their toy/baby clearance right now so there is a BUNCH of stuff on clearance. I think right now its only 30 percent. But I was able to get her 3 cute onsies (different sizes as she grows of course), a 3 pack of Gerber Onsies for 4.48! (Those things at 9.99 regularly!), and 2 cute onsies for her cousin (SILs baby, 4 weeks younger than Abigail), and a 3 pack of Nuk Bottles that I've been dying to try out for her, and a Baby Einstein DVD, CD and book set for 30 bucks. Well I used Q's and a 10 dollar GC I had from a razor sale I did earlier this week. I've been wanting to buy her some Baby Einstein DVDS since I was pregnant! Because a lady that I knew back in 2007, had a daughter I babysat for about 2 years, SWORE by Baby Einstein. I mean she loved the DVDS and bought about 10 or more of them! I've shown some youtube videos of it to Abby and she loves it. She'll stare away at it. Lol Anyway, I'm so exhausted...DH and DD are knocked out and I'm glued to the computer on BBC and March '11 mama's group on FB. 

  DH and I have been wanting a mobile for Abigail for the longest. We just haven't found one and they are pretty pricey. We wanted the Baby Einstein one but this will do just fine. Plus it was on sale and this would be the cheapest I could get it at. She loves it! I put it up right away and she just STARES and it and smiles!


 I bought her this kick and play piano and she's been kicking away at it! She loves it also :)  I like how both of these range from Birth-36 Months. I like to buy things that grow with her. I only spent 45 bucks on both of them. Thats including tax. I tried looking for the push along toys that converts into a riding toy per Mrs. Jess suggestions, but it was CLEARED OUT! I was so mad. I mean geezus I thought the sale just started or was I wrong? Lol So I decided to get her both of these at least they go up to 36 months so that's a plus side. I saw one mobile I wanted that went up to only 5 months for 50-60 bucks! I can't imagine buying anything that only goes up to 5 months unless its a 20 or less toy and even that I would smack myself for. But sometimes you just have to have it for your LO. I mean I just love to get her things and I feel like she deserves it. I had my chance to get everything and everything I've been wanting for 22 years and my baby deserves everything now. I think it all comes from my father getting us the best of things. My mom, not so much. I know you guys probably think I'm psycho for buying all of this for her. But I think its just her being my first and all, its just so exciting AND the fact that growing up, my dad would always give us things that he thought we deserved all the way up until he passed away in 2002. I would want to be the loving, caring, and selfless person my father was to my sister and I. 
I hope everyone has a great day!
