Menu Plan Monday

Last week was a crazy one and I forgot MPM! So here is the schedule for the week!!

Monday - Coach has his last meet - YAY! Chicken Rice Crockpot meal
Tuesday - Chicken Enchiladas
Wednesday - Crockpot Ravioli. This could change. It is family night at monkey's preschool and we will do pumpkin carvings so we have limited time between swim lessons and this... could turn into a drive though somewhere. His 2 friends are eating and playing at Chick-Fil-A and invited us.. but the thought of germs and H1N1 makes me stay away from places like that right now!!
Thursday - Grilled Cheese and Tomato Soup on my new Pottery Barn Soup/Sandwich plates. Got these in April and have only used them once - they are super cute!!
Friday - Hommade Pizza
Saturday - Leftover buffet
Sunday - Boneless Turkey roast and all the trimmings:)

It's been a long time!

I haven't posted in a while!! Things have been winding down with Cross Country - yay! Coach has the last meet of the year on Monday and then he works on the video for 2 weeks. Not gonna lie, I get pretty sick of the video because I 'get' to see it at least 100 times! Carey and I are teaching a coupon class on Friday for a staff development day for the Kenton County Libraries. Should be fun. We are even preparing a powerpoint presentation. Not bad for 2 moms! I am so ready for fall weather... right now, we have skipped fall and gone right to winter:( I have these cute outfits for monkey and sweet girl for our outdoor fall pics but can't find a nice day to do them! That's about all from here. Sweet girl has started waving and clapping and we even heard her say bye bye and hi! Cutie... I will try to get a video but she doesn't usually preform on command!

Yo Momma's a Liar!

To my precious almost 4 yr old monkey:

I hate to break it to you, but your Mommy's a liar.

The neighbor boys do not always have homework.

The neighbor boys do not take naps.

Eating vegetables will not give you big muscles like Benny.

Dr. Arar's special candy is in fact, medicine.

Your happy meal toys aren't lost, they are in the garbage.

You won't have to get a straw at the hospital everytime you do something dangerous.

We are not always going to be late to school if you don't hurry up.

When daddy and I say we are going to boring meetings, sometimes we are actually doing something fun.

Just because we say it has eggs in it doesn't mean it really does.

Even when you get really big, you will not be allowed to have a Spiderman birthday party.

But I do not lie when I tell you you are the best son anyone could have and I love you more than you could ever know.

Who needs toys?

So sweet girl has decided the heat register and the fireplace are her two favorite toys. And man, is fast! She can get across the living room, to the fireplace and the stuff in the fireplace into her mouth in no time!

Triple coupons

Yesterday, I went to Biggs as they were having Triple Coupons! I went in June also and it went pretty well! I had intentions of taking a picture of all my loot but after the events of yesterday, that did not happen! All I have is my long receipt! Here are my totals..... Total before coupons - $138.86.. total after coupons $52.42... Savings of $84.44! Not too bad but not as well as I have done before - only about a 61% savings !

Monkey's battle scar

Before Stitches

After Stitches

Monkey fell jumping off the couch at the babysitter's today:( He hit his head on their chair rail and had to get 5 stitches! He was so brave and thinks his Scooby Doo Band-Aids are pretty cool!
