A couple of things

Randy and I have found a new passion... a new way to have fun and work together...an exciting adventure...



Can you guess what it is?


Yep...COUPONING!

Who ever knew that couponing and saving money could be so fun. We started getting Sunday papers about 5 weeks ago...I got a book together and a way to organize all the chaos that is coupons and we have fun looking at the website "southern savers"...which is AMAZING as well as all the sales papers and finding things already on sale and then knowing we have a coupon for it...it is truly exhilarating...sad, I know, but fun!

I've become such a fan of publix...I feel so relaxed when I go in there and love that I got a container of ALL detergent last week for .99! Between that and the homemade detergent my mom made and gave to us, we are set for a while!


Secondly, I've debated on whether or not to receive the H1N1 vaccination this year. Randy and I are vaccine hesitant on a lot of fronts and educated about it. Anyways, I decided to get the vaccine since I am in a "high risk" category and work in a school. After I got the shot yesterday, the nurse said it would take 6-8 weeks to be fully immunized, which takes us to the end of December at which point my pregnancy is in its last days. Oh well, I'll just keep praying for protection and washing my hands constantly!

I am not a very inspired coupon user so I need more tips from you K. Although I used a load of diaper coupons on my last visit to Wal-Mart and saved $13. I felt like I had really accomplished something. We all got the H1N1 and flu shots to protect Anika. There is a lot of debate about it but we felt it was best to do everything we could to protect her from getting sick. And we wash our hands A LOT along with A LOT of GermX wipes and gel!
