Sunday Funday Couponing Trip! Spent: $3.09 Saved: $23.67!! & Lots of Updates on Abby!

Happy Sunday! It's been a while! I haven't been in the mood to post. I also missed posting my couponing trips last Sunday. But today was great. I went with Nancy and we did some major damage. I think I did pretty awesome! She did too! I didn't see much of anything I wanted this week but I had to burn my register rewards at Walgreens. So decided to get the Huggies Diapers Slip-Ons. I think it will be great when Abby starts to crawl, etc.

Here is my trip from Today:
TOTAL OOP (out of pocket): $3.09. Total SAVED: $23.67!! & I left with $3.50 in RR's for Walgreens; and $2 ECBS for CVS for next time! I also have my $10ECBS from my last weeks deal at CVS! 



I bought a pack of 216 ct Huggies Wipes (My fav.), Huggies Slip-Ons, Carmex Lip Balm, St Josephs Aspirin, and Always Liners (CVS Coupon Machine spit out one for FREE!), and 2 pocket prong folders as fillers.

I loved Today! I also went to Kroger and used my FREE Kroger coupons a friend gave to me because she doesn't use it. So I got a 24pack of water, 1lb of bacon, 1bag of Ruffles Chips, 1 Digornio for 1 all for FREE! I saved $15 bucks that trip!
I am loving this week! Here is last weeks trip!
Last Sunday's Trip...was AWESOME! I spent $7 OOP for ALL OF THIS! Including the Bounty Paper Towels, 4 Puffs boxes, Drinks, cereal, cans, peanuts, prunes, chips, 2 toothbrushes, and Palmolive! I left with a $10 dollar gas card AND $10 Extra Care bucks for next use! SO exciting! I built a great ECB pile so I was able to use it. My total before coupons was $70 bucks and total after coupons $35 bucks then after ECBS it came down to $7 bucks! The cashier told me GREAT JOB!
I usually run into bad cashiers sometimes but lately..doing my trips..I've been getting COMPLIMENTS from them. Today at Kroger's the cashier told me "Not bad, good job!". LOL!

Anyway, there has been LOTS going on with Abigail. Her eczema has been a huge pain for me and her. I feel so bad. I hate having her scratch, itch, and get frustrated. I have spent hundreds of dollars on so many great creams, natural creams, etc. The only thing that works is putting 3 types of creams/ointments and lotions on her. So our routine is 3 creams about 2 times a day. I cant bathe her in anything which sucks but I think I remember that bathing her in Johnson and Johnson Natural Wash did not make her break out. So I might resort back to that. I've tried so many creams. A couple of days ago I spent 30 bucks on a wash and Eucerin cream. And it did NOT work. I've heard great things about Coconut Oil so I had to order that and hope it works. I stopped solids, resorted to bathing her every 2-3 days and I just hate it. I wish I could find a solution.

On a brighter note, Abby CAN NOW ROLL OVER! I put her in her Pack and Play and noticed her always trying to lean to her side. She rolled then rolled back in place and kept rolling back to tummy. After about 5 minutes I decided it wasn't a FLUKE and wanted to record it. She slowed down! Typical! Whenever I try to get a picture she stops doing it lol! But I did get a couple!
This video was from yesterday. Sorry its NOT viewable at all due to the dark nature of it lol. I just HAD to get it because she was laughing/giggling so hard when her daddy was messing with her!

Here are recent pictures of Abby :)
Her looking a mess! Abby has on her HazelWood Necklace I ordered from Eco Baby Buys  per the suggestion from Nancy! I'm hoping it works. The first day her redness from her Eczema calmed down a bit so I'm hoping it helps more and more each day!
After I fixed her back up. Her eczema was under control yesterday but today it's dry and red. This is a LONG battle.
Last night before bed. Sorry for my child's monster hair. I couldn't find her brush! LOL!
I found a GREAT solution to stop her from scratching the sides of her legs. She loves to do that! My S/O and I HATED putting pants on her because it was a PITA to get off when changing diapers. Well I had mommy brain for a couple of weeks I guess...I have a BUNCH of Baby Leg's AND Leg Warmers (Same as Baby Legs just generic version from Target). DUH! I can just put it on her and diaper changes are THAT much easier. I have 6 pairs so I don't know why I didn't use it. I guess because its so HOT here in Texas and anything with layers right now isn't my favorite.
I haven't updated for a while so sorry if my blog is a bit long. I need to update often. I love it!

Tonight for dinner..I'm cooking Lasagna! It's currently in the oven right now. What's for dinner tonight for any of you guys? I would love new suggestions/recipes.
