I love good deals! Last night I ran to JcPenny's and I swear all the clearance was $1.97 and under. I'm the type I always buy a season ahead. Some people ask me how I do that. I buy a size or two bigger. I ususally hold up them up against each other and compare whats different about them. I usually find its the length of the sleeves, which I'm okay with rolling them up. I also look to see if its 100% cotton, I dry EVERYTHING and it always shrinks. Anyways I bought my youngest 5 different outfits for under $12. (10 pieces total) Brock, I picked up 2 packages of white t-shirts (5 in each package) and underwear(4 in a package) for $1 each. My little man plays hard and who can complain 5 plain white shirts for $1. I actually bought a couple more packages, the daycare kids and I will be doing tie dye shirts this spring. Of course my oldest didnt get a thing. :(
After getting all my deals at JcPenny's, I ran up to Younkers. Their clearance is an additional 60% off and in Sundays paper they had an extra 20%. I love shopping!! :) Of course I never once went to my section to see if I could find anything. I'm always worried about my kids.

If anyone of you ever find a good deal please share...who doesnt like getting things for cheap or even FREE!!



Today has been a very busy day. The daycare kids and I made cupcakes this morning, worked on our preschool activites, played out in the garage for awhile. Some of you may ask...the garage.. Its to cold to be takin the kids out to play, so I turn the heat on in the garage and we get to play out there without a coat. :) When we got back in they all decorated their cupcakes and we finished putting our snowman book together. I actually got all the kid to lay down at the same time so I actually got a full workout in. :)

I cant believe its only 12:40pm. Ive already fed breakfast to 8 kids, got 2 of them on the school bus, loaded the rest of the kids up for preschool to realize someone left the tv on and the Yukon battery is DEAD!! So plan B.... all the kids did the preschool activities with me this morning, colored and pasted our mitten puzzle. We made trail mix for morning snack and finished up by having freetime. During all of that I fed the babies 1 bottle each and changed their diapers 2 times. Oh and cant forget trying to potty train 2 of my daycare kids. I swear that takes so much time, every 30 minutes we have a bathroom break. We just finished lunch (fish sticks, french fries, green beans and apples) And now the kids are all reading a book before we have rest. OH REST TIME is the best!! Thats if I can get them all to sleep at the same time.

I'm sitting here now debating...do I clean the house while they are napping or try to get in some workout time. After this last baby I'm having a terrible time losing the baby weight. I'm so excited during lunch today UPS dropped off my P90X videos, I cant wait to start doing those. I just need to stick to their diet plans though- FOOD is my biggest challenge.

I better get off of the dang computer and get something done. I'm hoping to start posting crafts the kids do and other activities we do during the day. I just need to get a hang of this whole bloggin. I'm still trying to figure out how to set everything up. Its not as easy as facebook. :)

I cant believe its already Sunday night. I swear this weekend FLEW by. This weekend we were so busy with running errands,cleaning house and trying to get everything ready for our kids baptism. Ugh..its always something. :) Today we actually found some good deals at The Factory Card Outlet. We got plates and napkins for a dollar each. This afternoon we did get to sit back and kick our feet up and watch the Packers kick butt!
Now its time for me to start preparing for tomorrow. All the daycare kids will be back and Brock has preschool. Somewhere between running back and forth to preschool I HAVE to finish the invites.

Well I suppose to should get off of my behind and kid the little ones to bed!!

Trying to figure this out

WOW!! I never thought trying to set up a blog would be so difficult. Of course just started figuring this out and lil Lily is crying. Off I go to take care of her. Hopefully I will get back to this in a bit.
