so excited…

…that i got 40 % off this (printed off coupons for Hobby Lobby from their website. dennis paid for this so i could use a coupon for the other stuff i bought):
and 40% off the 3 albums (a 6×6, a 12×12 and an 8×8.) the stamps were on clearance for $4!! the paper stack was reg. price.
here’s what we got my niece for her dedication tomorrow (like baptism.) it opens up (it was 50% off):
and the card i made to go with it:
not fabulous or anything but oh well. i actually made it to go with my mom’s mother’s day present. i am making cards for her. that way, she can just grab one for birthdays or whatever. i’m not sure it’s the greatest idea since i’m not that great a cardmaker but she’ll probably not mind. 
the boys did great with my mom today!! that’s great news, esp. for beau. we got to have supper out, just me and dennis. 
we came home right on time, b/c beau wanted his mommy by the time we got here. he nursed off to sleep and seemed pretty relieved. he’s been asleep since about 8 or so and it’s 11 now so thumbs up to that.
all in all, a good and successful day.

Great work on getting such a discount on your scrapping tote! It looks like it’s going to be so useful! (what are you using at the moment to carry your stash?)

ryn: that deff IS good. .. I find Michaels super expensive BUT they normally have pretty kickass sales.. you just have to wait for item you want to come out. their flyers usually include 40%off coupons too.. which make purchases easier to justify

Sounds like a great day! Cute bag, gift, and card. I’d buy one of those cards over the ones they sell at the grocery store any day. Since you’re into cloth diapering, i can’t remember if i already linked you to one of my other faves – made by mo. You’re both mothers of two who are really into cloth diapers.

Ryn: We ended up getting an *in-step* three wheel stroller with front swivel wheel… Looks KINDA like this only in blue… https://my1.bizshop.com.au/betterbabydeals/images/Ultralight-Ink-Black.jpg It is SOOO light! Colby even got in to it (he’s around 40 lbs) and strolling him felt like I was pushing nothing! lol
