Blogs for Saving Money

My hubby saved an article in the Bulletin for me recently that highlighted all these blogs for money-saving, coupon clipping moms. Saving a buck here & there seems to help our budget; now that I am a stay at home mom.


I have checked them all out and like them all. I especially like 5 dollar dinners. I love to cook.
Freebies for mom has some great tips for birthday freebies ~ like a free burger from Red Robin or a free DVD rental from Hollywood.

Happy Saving!!

Emma's Trip to PA


First plane ride ~ are we there yet!!

Emma, Mommy & Grandma Schliep headed out for a quick trip to Mt. Pleasant, Pennsylvania (about an hour SE of Pittsburgh) last week. We enjoyed some sunshine, shopping, and lots of great cooking from Great-Grandma Coughenour & Aunt Joyce. Oh, and Pappap & Grandma Coughenour have a swimming pool. We swam during the day and sat around talking through the night. It was so great to catch up and see our family. Emma did pretty good on the plane and I am so happy she had her own seat. Her two top teeth just poked through and she is learning to stand on her feet.




This price tag is yummy!




She wore an itsy-bitsy/teeny-weeny red polka dot bikini.

In the pool again!




Hanging out in Great Grandma's beautiful flowers. She is quite the green thumb!




Great Grandma Coughenour is going to be 80 next month ~ doesn't she look amazing!!




Grandma Schliep, G-G Coughenour, & G-Aunt Joyce





Pappap & Grandma Coughenour were so happy to meet Emma and she warmed up to them right away.

This looks yummy, but how do I open it.




Here let me try!






I think I can get this open.



I just thought these were funny! Emma likes to steal food.

Tired of Crawling


Saturday Robert & I caught Emma doing this. It seems like she just learned to crawl.
