Michael Aaron is fifteen weeks old (and a day - I’m late again!). I don’t have very many pictures from the last week. I took so many over Easter weekend that my camera went in to hiding! (Not really…I was just a slacker this week!). I can’t remember if I sent out an email when [...]

Laundry on the Cheap!
Early on in my quest to save money, I read a post on NeverPayRetailAgain in which the blogger stated that she rarely paid more than $2 for a bottle and averaged about $0.50 a week for laundry. That sounded great to me! I generally buy the Publix brand detergent - the cheapest at $9.99 for [...]
Saving Money!!!
As my previous post stated, I’ve been getting very interested in saving money through the use of coupons and shopping the sales. I’ve been having so much fun with it and I think I’m doing pretty well! In the past week, I’ve paid 81.32 for $242.23 worth of groceries - a 66% savings. I’m quite [...]

However, with our new single-income life, frugality is becoming more important. So, I’ve joined the coupon game. My new favorite websites are: Never [...]
Michael’s 1st Photo Shoot
Last Monday Michael had his very first photo shoot. I wouldn’t say it was a smashing success, but he didn’t cry and we did get a few cute pictures. You can take a look here.
If you want to actually order any prints (without the Olan Mills slashed through them!) you can go to this link: [...]
Milestones Galore
