Our baby girl, Ruby, rolled over today. I could see it happening and tried to stop her so her Daddy could see too LOL but she went ahead and did it. Both Grace and Amelia rolled over at Denise's house so we headed on over there so that Ruby could make her mark on the carpet as well. Before we know it she will be walking!!!! I will push her over for sure - LOL just kidding!
So I decided today that I would start my "Extreme Couponer" job. I clipped what I had and ventured to Dollarama to buy an accordian file folder to have with me. I sorted out everything with labels and set off. I know it won't be as easy to get as great of deals as in the USA because our stores don't "Double coupon" (so if it is .50c of, you get $1 off) and we don't have e-coupons we can add to a card. But I wasn't going to let that get in my way. I was able to get .75c off here and there. I went to Metro and some diapers were on sale for $10. I want to have some disposables for when we go camping or on extended trips. I had a $2 off coupon too. So the $16 diapers I got for $8. I also went to the produce section and bought things that were on the discount shelf. All it means is I need to use it this weekend and not next week. I saved $2 off amazing mixed greens!!!! I counted everything up and I saved $18 with manufacturers coupons and in store coupons. I am learning more each day where to find coupons so hopefully this addiction will work out for us.
Yesterday I set off with my two youngest to Kingston to visit a friend. I went to Go Green Baby and snagged two Mother Ease (pink :-) covers, two hemp diapers and three ME liners. It was $60 but I haven't purchased more than 3 bags of disposables yet! Then I headed over to the Carters/Osh Kosh outlet at Kings Crossings near Division Street. Sometimes I am really lucky and make out like a bandit. Today was one of those days! I asked the sales person how much the 3 pack of onsies were on this certain rack. $6! She said "Everything on this rack is $6". SWEET! So I picked up 6 diaper shirts (that are ab-so-freaken-lutly adorable, 4 pairs of pants (2 pack for $6) and 2 nightgowns for my friends new baby boy. YAY deals!!!!!
My lovely husband has offered to take the "night shift" with Ruby tonight. She is only up once but I have a terrible time getting back to sleep afterwards and I end up loosing a few hours a night instead of just 15 minutes. I am hoping it works out because I need some catch up. Wish him luck!!
Grace is off on a PA day tomorrow so I am hoping to have lots of fun with her! I am looking forward to the summer already.
