Baby

Monday we are going to do a free 3D ultra-sound, and find out the sex of the baby. As long as the baby cooperates we should be able to see. If it's questionable then we will have to wait until Nov 3rd for confirmation. Wish us luck!

Funny Bel!

This was Isabel's idea at the grocery store a week ago. It cracks me up! Even though the video is short, she did this for about 2 aisles. By the way, it was cinnamon.

Karma

So I had the most amazing experience at CVS last night. Most of you know I shop by using the "grocery game" rules. In doing that I have saved a HUGE amount of money. I usually pay no more than $2 for a pack of diapers. Last night takes the cake. I don't think I could beat it. I'm always friendly to the staff even the mean ones. I had $26 in ECB's(that's free CVS money) and coupons to use . I'm pretty stocked on Isabel's diapers(plus I see potty training in the future). So, I thought it would be a great time to get a head start on diapers for the next baby. I bought Huggies snugglers newborn, and size 1. It was a total of 120 diapers. I used my coupons and ECB's thinking I should pay about $1 plus tax, so roughly $3. I was small talking with the clerk and she said"what else do you got there"? , as I was tearing off other coupons that had just printed. They were for random things like lotion etc. It was nothing I was buying. I started reading them off, and saying it's nothing I have. She grabbed them and just starting scanning all of them. Then she says " you are negative $2.30". I looked confused, and she said "you need to buy something else". Then it dawned on me what she had done. So I ran and grabbed some hand soap. Then she said your total is....wait for it........3 cents. That's exactly why you should be nice to the clerks. I didn't even pay the tax on my stuff. What a deal! I love CVS!!!!

Trip

I know this is premature, but I can't believe we are going to leave town for a day. Except for funerals,(and 1 trip to salt lake city with out the family) we have not left Vegas in 2 yrs. I almost forgot we did take her to Lake Havasu for the day. It was last summer &, was extremely hot. So once for her and Jerry and twice for me in 2 yrs. Still not a lot of away time. I need a break and I'm sure Jerry could use one. In a few weeks we are going to take Isabel to Utah to a corn maze/pumpkin patch. They have a petting zoo etc. We've taken her down town to do things, but haven't really went any where else. It stinks not working and being on a budget. Jerry and I use to go go go. If the trip goes well we will look at going to California or Arizona soon. Since our DVD system was stolen out of the car, I'm praying she will be a good girl for the ride.

Baby News

I'm so ecstatic that we are only having 1 baby. I was so worried. This last month was so physically rough on me and I had to eat so much just so I didn't get sick. I'm feeling better, mostly because I switched my prenatal vitamins. Today was a good day. The baby was kicking a lot on the ultrasound and the heartbeat sounded good. Now just 2 more months to find out the sex. I do however, because of age, have been flagged as high risk. Everything should be fine, but in the meantime I have to have at least one 2 hour appt with the high risk doctors. This should be fun. It is a little funny that my referral paperwork said "elderly" on it today. I get told I look 27 all the time, but I guess that doesn't matter. LOL! The neighbor kid said it looked like we were having a "teddy bear". It's funny, because it really does look like a teddy bear.

Breakfast

We went for a Birthday breakfast early this morning (Jerry's Birthday). I love this little place, it's so close to home. Where else can you get 3 meals and 2 beverages for $8.54!?! The fact that it's good food is a bonus. When we move I will surely miss that. It was gorgeous this morning too, perfect weather. Now I need a nap.

Baby

Jerry and I are pleased to announce that we will welcome our 2nd child into our home on March 12th.
