Mr. Potato Head

Not much new happening with me. Im just trying to convince mommy that it really is not that cold outside and we can go out and play but she dosent seem to believe me. So i spend a lot of time playing inside and looking out the window. Sometimes we go to the library and that is fun too. Mommy is excited because she got accepted into a CPE program for the fall. She says it will help her minister to people more effictively. Daddy is working hard at work and school and I think he will get straight A's. Here are some pictures of me keeping myself busy... These are the lips from the police officer spud and his whistle.

Here I am in the tunnel. Its so fun to go back and forth and I love when Mommy comes in with me.

just monkeyin around with my monkeys. we also like to jump on beds, climb up things and steal the phones.

Cutting costs

So the ladies at www.moneysavingmom.com try to post what they bought and how much they saved in their shopping trips. Here is the one my sister and I did tonight at Jewel.

We used lots of coupons, buying things that were only on sale. We got a huge bag of carrots, 16 drumsticks, 3 air sprays, 2 cake mixes and 3 frostings, 10 Dannon yogurts, 4 baby food, 1 Earthgrain bread, 1 anytizer, 1 simple harvest snack bar box, 1 true delight snack bar box, 1 quacker fiber bar box, 1 tostinos pizza puffs, 6 lean cuisine meals, 1 hot pocket meal, 2 bottles of chocolate milk, 1 reusable grocery bag, and a pack of schick disposable razors.
so that is a lot of stuff, right? It should have cost us $88.... but with our savy shopping and coupon cutting, we paid $47.78. A total savings of $40.25!! I still think we could have done better but not too bad in any case. What do you think?
