COUPON CODES MAMAS?

I'm looking for COUPON CODES(I did get a BRU email for 15% off,I ma go back on thursday or wednesday(if i decide nautlius) and get the pink one for the percentage off.
I really liked the my ride though,however I can't see it be BIG enough(even though it IS teh same size as the marathon) but why buy the same thing?

I think,the fact lauren is going to be 3,she needs somehing like the Nautilus,but I did not like that red thing there...(where the carseat strap goes throgh later on)....
Oh man am I fussy.lol
Anymore coupons?
I should go on twitter to see what i can find lol

Carseat Help,Quick question,HElp anyways PLEASE lol





The first years has a beautiful girly print too...
I could wait it out a few more days and get a britax regent,but I donno if I want that anymore....Is that what I SHOULD get?
To me the Diplomat,is similar to the Nautilus..Confusions COnfusions.I actually spent the WHOLE day debating.Its is important to me....
I'm TORN between THESE THREE SEATS.
I decided NO BRITAX..NOT spending the money......here is what i am thinking of..which would u recommend?
I don't hve time for specifics..see jon n kate plus 8 going on,and i gotta go(kids waiting) grrrr so which is what you'd pick out of the three..
I love them all..(SIGH)
The My ride 65 I amost bought at BRU today,but silly me wanted to wait till thurs for the colors I liked LOL.
The First years i am scared Lauren will climb out like the marathon:( I think its a defaulted marathon i swear...
The nautlius...is wel,great for 65 lbs but will continue to grow but NO rear facing,if I wanted to..(SIGH)..Lauren is 28 lbs.
here are the 3 seats..

commen reasons people divorce..Just to put in..

This is interesting...I'm not divorced,nor do we plan it,however we fit the criteria for a few things below.Strage...:)


Here are some frequently cited reasons for causing divorce:

Lack of commitment to the marriage
Lack of communication between spouses
Infidelity
Abandonment
Alcohol Addiction
Substance Abuse
Physical Abuse
Sexual Abuse
Emotional Abuse
Inability to manage or resolve conflict
Personality Differences or ‘irreconcilable differences’
Differences in personal and career goals
Financial problems
Different expectations about household tasks
Different expectations about having or rearing children

Interference from parents or in-laws
Lack of maturity
Intellectual Incompatibility
Sexual Incompatibility
Insistence of sticking to traditional roles and not allowing room for personal growth
Falling out of love
Religious conversion or religious beliefs
Cultural and lifestyle differences

Inability to deal with each other’s petty idiosyncrasies
Mental Instability or Mental Illness
Criminal behavior and incarceration for crime

Missing schooool..heres bri at school:)

 


I took this with my cell phone(not the best picture).However,i love it.Brianna adores school and unlike everybody who is HAPPY to be out of school,this child is not.She misses it.She plays every single day,"SCHOOL" and I play it with her.We read books,do sentances,write stories,etc.I have to look online for homeschooling stuff,so she can do it at home,this summer and include Lauren in whatever she should be doing(recognizing letters,and me reading to her,stuff she'll sit still for,cause she will fidget.

Lauren,is a houdini.she really is.She knows how to PULL (I figured out how she does it)..the strap,to make it LOOSER(holds down the metal tab,than PULls her arms through)....and WHAM is out of her carseat in a few seconds flat.
I need to buy a carseat,that is NOT made that way.I do not know of any,the only one so far that I SEEN with my own eyes that doesn't HAVE it like that is the first years carseat(goes to 65lbs).I prefer one that goes to 80 or 100lbs though...
The dimplomat I like,as much as the regent(if not more,cause its more compact) however the colors.................but why compromise safety for color.lol.Silly isn't it.:)

Well,Its sunday.Briana DOES have jijitsu today.We'll be getting her up in a half hour and off we go:)
Its off to a NEW week:).This week will consist of shopping for clothing,I need it,pretty bad imo.So does Brianna,Lauren is set.Ashley does too..she's grown quite a bit since last year.I see her wearing clothes I did not buy for her.i'm like what the heck?Girls are lending her clothes/giving her clothes??I have to talk to Kates mom,Kate gave Ashley 3 coach bags(knock offs I'm sure) except one I am not sure(the one meant for me).The zipper tells me otherwise,and the inside,how it feels,and the tags,I have to find out.This is nuts.Why does one give out bags?Than I hear she has around a hundred of them.Oh?really...how lucky.

kudos

Dudley Park pictures..End of MAY lol

 


I really should be on top of uploading pictures into the blog as the time frames allots.However,I did not.Here is this Creek,(since my town,it has a huge creek going through the whole thing,into the bay so on so forth,same as lakes etc).PLENTY of water.Why did I buy a pool?lol oh well,nothing like hanging home some days either.Now rain,GO away!
Well,Brianna was playing with Ryan.Lauren & Brianna both adore the water.Ashley wasn't with us,as she was in Lavalette that weekend with Kate and her family.Lavallette is a nice town,the ocean right there and relaxing.

The middle of Spring we spent plenty of time at the creek,and lakes.The pictures coming will show that.Than I am going to come to the present..I'll be ALL caught up.None of these are going in the photography blog that I can think of.I do have my pictures IN Picassa web Albums.I always did,and I love it!i want to try webshots again(www.webshots.com)
I do store my pictures in Shutterfly,develope them,and etc.make Cd's..so Im saved.:) I donno what id do if I lost all my pictures:(

Well have a nice day people!

Grand Baby Ava

 

This is my grand daughter.The fact I am a GRANDMOTHER to BE,or Grandmother ALLREADY,just astounds me to pieces.My daughter is having a daughter.Somebody Pinch me.
I am sad however,because Stephanie(My daughter) is in FLORIDA.She felt compelled to tell me how she is not ever coming to NJ because aka "ROB" the babies father is not going to ALLOW her to come or ALLOW the baby to come.((Cough))...umm what??WHAT whaaaaaaat?
That is just unfair,wrong,cruel,you name it.I plan on heading out there.I plan on tossing a baby shower.Yet,to be sooo accepting as a dad of our gifts,and our love,yet turn your back on allowing your Kid to visit grandparents is just wrong.Imo.Its not hurting us,(me,and the girls who live here)..but its ALSO and MAINLY hurting Ava.I can not,simple as that,afford all of us to keep flying out to Florida.Top it off,there is School.BIlly will remain home,and watch the kids here or there,but the kids will cry and get used to it at one point,but is it all fair?Whats fair?Life is unfair.
Period.
thoughts?
Bottom line..BAby Ava is beautiful:) & I cannot wait to see her.Maybe they will ALL move to NJ:)

A new week in the makings..

Its Saturday,last day of the week.What a lazy day indeed.Right now my house is bustling with activity,Billy came home with food from Shop rite and German Butcher.What a guy....hehe.He can make my day,and on the flip side make me soooo MAD!Men..i suppose they do that to all of us!
Today My aunt came over,I was glad I mopped and cleaned up.Sadly Lauren took a hold of a can of cake frosting(chocolate) and smeared it on my leather couch,and a few places of the coffee table as well as her own stomach and chest(SIGH).Whats up with this little tiny girl????She is growing up so fast,and SO into EVERYTHING!
Today I took out my mop again,the beloved Shark,I have to say I love it.I read the ratings and they weren't all that.I do not understand WHAT people are complaining about!Its a MOP.You are not using chemicals(to me thats huge,cause chemicals on our floors on bi daily or whatever basis is NOT a good thing).It DOES clean the floors.I have bamboo floors,and I should've took pictures.It went from icky looking to smooth and beautiful with the shark.I love it,and recommend it.I am sure its possible the HAANS steam mop may do a better job,being its got better ratings.Too late.I have the shark!I do want the steam cleaner now.For some reason,I'm loving the steam!
http://shark.steamcleaningmop.com/ (Here is the link).

As for boring,we are ALL living a Boring Saturday.I think I am going to take off with Ashley(age 13) to blockbusters again.I watched the movie "THE UNINVITED" and I loved it!The ending was wacked!Totally UNEXPECTED haha.Amazing.I am not going to say anymore,just in case you didn't see it yet.I am undecided what the next viewing will be...me and Ashley cuddle up like mother and daughter(well we TRY,Lauren interupts),and watch movies.She took my husbands spot for the most part.He is not into movies as much as we are.SAD isnt it!

Well,The new week is coming.The things coming up is a Baby shower,Birthday party,A few days at the lake,friends houses,beach and I want to try this "SPRAY PARK/BEACH"...there is a place where its ALL spray water everywhere!Plus it has a picnic and playground.I plan on taking the girls there the day after school is over!
I will make a list of things I want to DO this summer,and write it out and scratch it out as its DONE:) YEPPIE I love love summer!
Have a Lovely Weekend!
ME!
