When it's to Cold to Go Outside....

Bring the SNOW inside!!!
Then add some strawberry jello mix for color and let the fun begin!!!

I was happy that the mess did not get out of hand!!

She had a blast and this kept her busy for a long time!!

See.....snow can be fun!!! lol

Brook's Idea of Helping Me Clean!!!!

She told me that she wanted to clean out Maggie's cage and I said sure but, you have to be careful!!!

I guess this is what she thought careful meant. Whenever she cleans she wears these goggles!!! Can't be to careful with your eyes!!! She is so much fun to have around. She makes us laugh all the time!!! We can't wait to have are boys here so we can have 3 reasons to laugh. =)

I hope everyone has a great weekend.

To: Uncle Matty =)

Good Deals at Target!!!!

Regular price: $16.99

I paid: $4.24

Savings: $12.75....wow!!!

Regular price: $22.99

I paid: $5.74

Savings: $17.25....wow again!!!!

I have been wanting to get Brooklyn these boots all season long, but I did not want to pay the full price. Today was my lucky day!!! Target has some great things on CLEARANCE for babies, toddlers, and adults. The shoes is what I found to be the best price items.

It feels good to back in the saving mode again. It was hard for me to stay on track during the holiday, but I am back in full swing!!! Later, I will let you know how you can get 6 dinner meals on a budget. I have been doing this for 3 weeks now, but I still want to give it one more week to get it right before I share. So far I have saved a lot of money and my precious time. I can't wait to share it with you!!!

On a side note.....

This is how I found Brooklyn the other day!!! Good use of her Nintendo DS!!!! =)

Crazy kid!!! =)

Brooklyn Sophia is feeling much better!!!!

Grandma and Grandpa...She sure does LOVE her Hannah Montana Guitar!!!

Her she is rockin out to the music!!!
She is so funny!!! I still can't believe she is going to be 5 years old this year!!!!

2009...BIG year for my family!!!

We are getting our BOYS!!!!
We can't wait to bring them home and start our lives as a family of 5!!!
Brooklyn told me the other day that she can't wait to play with Levi and Noah!!
We are still thinking sometime between March and May. I am hoping March, but with this adoption anything is possible!!! =) Please continue to pray for them and us as we wait and wait for our boys to come home!!!




My baby is going to 5 years old!!! I can not believe it!!! We are trying to think of something special for her big party. 5 is a BIG DEAL!!! lol I will keep you guys posted on the details of her party!!!

Sick

Being praying for Brooklyn Sophia. She is sick with a bad ear infection, a fever that comes and goes and possible strep throat. My baby feels really bad and is sleeping a lot.
