Happy Easter!



We had a wonderful Easter! Every church service they have a children's sermon. It's where the kids come down and the pastor will give a little devotional for them. Well with it being Easter the church was packed. Debbie took Belle down but with so many kids she slid down to make room. We couldn't believe Belle stayed in her set with the other kids gathering around her. Then Madi (a family friends daughter) came down but just stood there with no set. Belle squidded over and patted the set next to her and said "sit". Madi did, the looked at each other for a while. It was one of the sweetest things I've seen! She made me vary proud of her. After church we went to Grandparent Parker's house for an Easter brunch. Belle, like mommy, loves Jell-O eggs! Debbie makes up a whole bunch. That's what she's eating and just can't get enough of!

3 Months




Our little one was three months on Sunday. She is defiantly a chunk! Debbie bought her 6 mo. cloths for her Easter basket and the aren't to big on her. But that's okay all that means is we have a big healthy baby on our hands. She's holding her head up great. I took these photo's of her on Easter in her prity dress.

Drive! Drive! Drive!


Belle is on this kick of wanting to drive the car. All the way home today from town she keep saying she wanted to drive. "I drive mommy!" "I drive mommy!" Over and over again. Then she though in there "I drive Trigger". When we got home she wanted to let Trigger out then ran straight to the car and told him to get in. She is a hoot!! Blake will ask her if she's old enough and she'll say "No" but she still "want to drive"!

Happy Easter-Egg-Hunting!


















This last Saturday and Sunday we had fun Easter egg hunting. Saturday our church had one inside 'cuz the weather was a little rainy. The hallway was packed with people waiting to go into the rooms and Belle didn't like that. I'm not sure if she thought she was going into the nursery or what but she started to ball. Then they let us have at it. I took Belle to the middle inside ('cuz everyone starts at the front) so we could get more!! She was still crying. She took a moment to look around to see what everyone else was up to, then look out! She was a machine! I know now for next year to get her a bigger basket! She was so proud of herself and had to show Gramma. My mom showed up to and got some good pictures!












Then on Sunday a little local community or subdivision called Lake Camelot had there annual hunt too. Belle was ready this time. She was waiting like a good girl for the door to open. We meet up with cousin's Josie and Ogdan. All the kids did a great job. Josie had her own age group she was in. But she knew best! When the "GO!" was shouted she ran to the far end! And who came running too?!! Belle! She wanted in on it too. She loves being with big cousin Josie! Over all meeting the Easter bunny was a no go! You can see how close we got before she freaked! Daddy had to save her. Like always Whitney was on her best behavior, and as cute as ever!
Go Ogdan Go!
Don't worry Josie I'm coming?


Daddy make it all better!

Krazy Coupon Lady!

There is a good explanation for why I haven't been posting lately, I've been krazy couponing! A while back I tried to coupon and failed miserably. BUT about a month ago I saw this show on TLC called Extreme Couponing. I was sold again. This time was different I found this amazing website that is so helpful. I'm educating myself better and am ready this time to stay committed! I've only been doing this for about a month and on my first really week of clipping and couponing I saved 63%!!!! Last week I did grocery shopping at Kroger and saved 23%. I told Blake that if I could save just 25-30% on our grocery bill that would be an additional $100+ a month (People that $1200 in a year!!!) Bring on the new SUV! And no I didn't buy 100 deodorants. I did buy 90 Powerades, 12 boxes of pasta, 4 Nature Valley granola boxes, and 12+ cereals all for about $120! I'm thrilled with having something to do besides mother! I love it but I wanted to contribute in a way that will help my family long after I quit working. And really who wants to pay a company money for diapers when you could get them for 83% off!! I don't! I do have to send out a HUGE THANKS to my wonderful husband for putting up with my crazy shopping trips and weird outings. Hopefully I'll have this down no problem! Soon!

Chef Boyarde Yummy!



So with my Krazy couponing I was able to get Belle some Chef Boyarde's on sale last week. This is the first time she had it. At first she did her whole "I don't want it." Then I told her that that's all she's getting for lunch so eat it. She tried a teeny tiny little bit and loved it! She devoured the whole thing and wanted more. Of course as the pictures will show!

Good Morning Daddy!


Ever since we could Belle and I will wake Blake up in the afternoon. I'm trying to teach her to say "Good Morning Daddy!" She'll say it at times. But the other morning all his girls gave him his wake up call! Belle likes to get into bed, get under the covers and say "Night,Night!" then close her eyes. It's quite precious. Now the bed is getting prity full. That's okay though I think Blake realy enjoys his wake-up-calls.
Hugs, Good Morning.

Big Hugs!
