Mother's Day


Just thought I'd do a little blogging about my cute little Luke and the little gift he gave me for Mother's Day. He planted this little bean and it's about 12" tall now. It's been fun watching it grow. The little sprout is growing almost as fast as he is.

Welcome to The Price is Right!

I just got back from the grocery store(s) and I feel like super woman!! I jumped on the coupon band wag0n and this is what I got. (Please keep in mind that I am working on my food storage so don't think I'm completely nuts for buying mustard and BBQ sauce in bulk. When the end of the world comes I don't want to be caught without condiments!)
Actual retail price of all 38 items shown above: $91.47. (Pretty depressing)
Super Woman's price: $32.85!
38 item average: $.86 per item! Wohoo! If you take out the diapers it averages $.54 per item.
I LOVE COUPONS!
ps...this is a shout out to you Amanda!

In the Eye of the Beholder

I picked up Luke from school today and after my bear hug he proceeded to tell me that he had a bad day. I, of course, asked him why. He stated simply that he got poked in the eye with a marker and left it at that. I kissed his eye and then began the arduous task of crossing the street and packing the minivan with five small children. We went home, ate lunch, and began homework when the phone rang. It was Jared. He began regalling me with the real story. Apparently he had gotten a call from the school nurse. After a brief moment of panic the nurse told him that Luke was fine but had had an accident. He was opening a black marker and hit HIMSELF in the eye! Luke told the nurse to call Mommy or Daddy because, and I quote, "They are Lainharts and so am I!" Classic. After a brief chuckle the nurse told Jared that Luke is so cute she just wants to sqeeze him and keep him. Funny little man.
