Here is an interesting article from Mrs. Nepsy's Frugal World. It's a very interesting article.. I would like to know what you guys think about it. I have to add my two cents and I definitely agree with the article ;)
Nursing pillow—I love our Boppy. I truly do. It’s great for feeding the kids when you don’t have a regular pillow around, for cuddling them, for tummy time when they are tiny, and for lounging for them (although not unattended). But you could seriously use a regular pillow or the arm of the sofa for the same purpose in nursing.
2.Expensive High Chair—We never owned a high chair for Patrick. We will not be buying one for Abigail. For the time that she could not sit up for herself, we put her carrier in a chair at our dinner table so she could be with us while we eat. This continued to be the method to sit her upright for feeding until she could sit upright by herself. Now that she does sit upright by herself, she uses a booster seat that adjusts in height and has a tray for her that just attaches on to our regular dinner chair. We put a towel under it to prevent huge messes on our upholstery, but otherwise, there is no need to have a “high chair.” Yep. $20 is all we need to sit her at our table. Since it was handed down from Patrick, this $20 purchase lasted through two children. And since it is all plastic, it will clean up nicely for resell or consignment.
3.Changing Table—You have other options here. You can use a dresser for the tabletop and the drawers to store the supplies. Or you can just use a changing pad and a bed or the floor. Seriously…why is there a piece of furniture for this purpose?
4.Diaper Genie—Yes, we have one. Yes, we pay for those refills. It’s dumb. A trashcan (and all of those plastic shopping bags we have acquired) emptied regularly works just as well. And if you get a seriously bad diaper that requires you to don a hazmat suit, take it outside to the garbage can.
5.Hooded Towel/Tiny Washcloths—You know what these are? Tiny versions of the real thing. I bet you already own the real thing. The extra fabric in the full size version will not inhibit its use with baby in any way. Use a real one. The hooded ones are cute and all, but if you want your child to wear a hood, make it out of that extra towel that they are wrapped in.
6.Bottle Warmer—You know what really, really works? Running hot water. Or if you want to be greener, a pot of hot water. For even less water waste, a slow cooker turned on warm with water in it. You don’t need something named “bottle warmer” to warm a bottle.
7.Nursing Chair/Stool—I typically cross one leg over another or sit with them crossed together. I would use a stool if it were there, but it’s not. So I don’t. And I’m okay with that.
8.Wipe Warmer—My mom bought one of these for Patrick when he was little. We used it because it was cute and he did like a warm bum in the winter months. But we had to buy refills. And we had to keep water in it to prevent it from being a fire hazard, and it burned electricity 24/7. And that cold bum? They get over it quickly.
And just so I can go on a tirade...here are some honorable mentions:
•Bumbo—seriously…children all over the world have learned to sit upright all by themselves for centuries. I don’t think your child will be advanced in their educational development because they sat upright 4 weeks before they would have anyway.
•Baby lotion/Soap—a natural soap gets the cleaning done and is good for sensitive skin and many babies have naturally moist skin and don’t need to moisturizer. Although it does smell really good.
•Expensive Bedding—They wet it. They spit up on it. They cannot use the comforter until they are much older. Some people argue that a bumper is not safe. So why are you buying this for them? Get a mattress cover and a couple of fitted sheets to meet the baby’s needs. (Yes, if you look in our nursery, you see a bedding set. We splurged. If we didn't have the money for it though, this is definitely not a necessity)
•Infant shoes—They cannot walk. They do not need shoes. Some argue that shoes are actually BAD for them at a young age. Yes, it is cute, but so are their socks.
•Stuffed animals—They cannot sleep with them. They cannot play with them for a while.
•Baby detergent—Any dye/fragrance free detergent will do. All Free & Clear or Arm & Hammer are great. And you will not have to take out a second mortgage to buy them.
•Bottle sterilizer—It’s called a dish washer. You probably already have one. Or you can boil them occasionally. Don’t buy another unnecessary gadget.

American Idol
O.k. so I didn't get a chance to post what I thought about the guys and I will do that quickly because we all know the results of the voting.. and then I will rant, err I mean comment on the results.....
Let me first start off by saying the outfits on the men were much better. Do they have a different stylist than the ladies? Anywho here goes.. Todrick was up first and he did some crazy version of a Kelly Clarkson song. I can honestly say I am not sure whether or not I liked it kinda verging on not liking it. He seemed to be more of a performer.Aaron I did like, i think he chose a great song and seemed very comfortable up on the stage. There were a few I definitely did not like. Jermaine sounded like a jazz singer and definitely did not hit the high note. John put me to sleep with his song. Alex all I have to say is YUCK! A few of them I liked, however, my favorite for the guys would def have to be Lee.
On to the results - WTF??? I definitely did not agree with who got sent home.I really liked Ashley and when it was her against Didi, I was for sure thinking Didi was going home. My mouth dropped when Ashley went home. As far as Jannelle going home, again I don;t agree with it. She wasn't my favorite, but I definitely don't think she should have went home. As far as the guys I could not believe John was not sent home!!!!!!! That's all I have to say. I am so upset about the results this week.... :(

Happy Saturday Everyone!
Well, I woke up this morning to unexpectedly see snow falling. Oh boy, I am so done with the snow and winter in general. bring on the heat! Well, we had a busy week this past week. I had Dr.s appointments, and both kids had appointments. Liam had a post op appointment for his tubes. The Dr. said that everything looked great and he will see us in 6 months, whew! I had to bring Aj back to the Dr. for his Asthma. It has been real tough for him lately. I have felt so bad for him. The poor kid has been waking up in the middle of the night to do his nebulizer and he is making frequent visits to the nurse at school because of this. The Dr. put him on prednisone AGAIN! On one hand it helps him, but on the other hand it is a steroid that really bulks him up while he is on it. The Dr. referred us to an Allergist. We go see him on the fourth. I am petrified because Aj hates shots.. he despises them and is so fearful of them. Well, before the appointment I have to go out and buy "numbing" cream - that right there tells you it's not going to be good. I have to apply this cream on both his forearms and wrap them in saran wrap before we go. I am NOT telling him why I am doing this because he will flip out. I am already afraid we are going to have to call in back up for when they have to put the needles in him:(
Yesterday was my one and only work day. It was a great day. it's so nice to get out of the house, even if it is just for the one day. So usually on Fridays, I either will not post or won;t post until later on in the evening.
So excited to be heading out tonight. We are going local, but it will be nice to hang out with such a great group of friends - can't wait. Dad is going to watch Liam for us. I can't wait to see what happens tonight - what shenanigans will ensue.....until next time friends ;)

Walgreens photo deal of the day
This one looks like a bummer! Anyway, the daily deal of the day for Walgreens is .10 for 4x6 prints. Simply use code 10CENTS there is no limit to the amount of prints you can order and you can choose to pick up in store.

Labels: walgreens, walgreens 7 days 7 deals
O.k. Here is the Daily Deal for Saturday $20.00 tix to Wine tasting
(March 6'th or 13'th)
After Capri Sun began creepily transforming people into amorphous metallic globules, wine rose to prominence, offering a similarly complex flavor profile without the threat of spontaneous melting. Celebrate wine, or "nature's Capri Sun," with today's deal. For $20, you get admission to a two-hour tasting event ($35 value) plus $10 off a featured bottle at Winchester Wine & Spirits, a $45 total value if you choose to buy a bottle of wine. Your Groupon gets you in to the March 6 or March 13 event; both events fall on a Saturday between the hours of 3 p.m. and 5 p.m. at this Winchester wine asylum.
During the two-hour foray, samplers will tipple high-end wines with bite-sized pairings to match. Learn techniques for sampling wine, pairing tips, and which wine fits best in which glass (example: wine from a square box will not fit in a circular glass). There will be five or so wines to try, which you can read about in vivid detail here to prep your buds for the journey ahead. After your palatal field trip is complete, you can pick up a bottle of your favorite sampled wine for $10 off retail. Bottles range from $16 to $30.
Drinking wine is like slipping a pair of rose-tinted glasses on your mind. The peaceful pour works quickly to enhance pleasantries (a dining companion, a meal, a pair of hand-cobbled variegated-corn-ear loafers) while sentencing worries to a time-out in the corner. Use this Groupon to boost fermented knowledge for an upcoming soiree at Marvin Gardens, Park Place, or the Reading Railroad while bonding with fellow wine enthusiasts over the aromatic allure of grape juice for grown-ups.
$10 discount only valid toward featured wines.

American Idol
O.k. so American Idol Started last night. The girls were up first and I have to say, I was not impressed. First off, who in the world picked out their outfits? Whoever it was should be fired! With that being said, I love, love, love Ellen on the show. I was a bit apprehensive at first when I heard she was going to be a judge, but I love her on the show. She is a great addition to the panel. O.k. so let's get right to it.
I thought for the most part the girls were dull. I felt like most of them should have been rocking it out, especially on the first night of performances. I do have a few that I liked. My top four favorite girls were Sioban, Crystal, Katie and Michelle. Sioban I think has a great voice, good song choice. She through me for a loop though because she looks very nerdy, but when she sings, she really surprised me. Crystal sang a song that definitely fit her, great voice, however I think she had to many gadgets up there - she could have done without her harmonica. Katie has an unbelievable voice for a 16 yr. old she seemed very comfortable up on the stage and like the judges, I would have liked to see her do a song that was a "bit younger" - something that would suit her more. Michelle I liked very much. I think she rocked out the Alicia Keyes song and she probably had one of the best outfits on the show.
What was up with Page? I think she may be going home this week. She was very dull and I think she was being carried by the backup singers. Ashley I wish showed more energy, definitely did not like her song choice, she did show great energy. Lilly reminded me of a singer you would see at a local bar. By the way, what is up with 3 of the girls using guitars??? No need for it.....Sooooo, my choices for the two girls that are going home this week would have to be Page and Hailey... sorry ladies but you just did not cut it for me.
I'm interested in what you guys think.. leave comments below. But you have to become a follower in order to leave comments.

Here's Bostons Deal of The Day.....73% off Dance Lessons
http://www.massmotiondance.com
If one activity can fulfill your human desire to be fit, your human desire to create art, and your more human desire to generate massive electromagnetic storms through rhythmic motion, it's dance. With today's deal, join the perfect storm of dancing. For $20, you get five dance lessons at Mass Motion Dance. Mass Motion is a 27-year-old studio that teaches classical ballet, jazz, hip-hop, and tap techniques at its spacious, professional Allston and Peabody studios (this Groupon is not valid at the Sturbridge location).
You'll get five adult group lessons, which convene in the evenings several times a week (click here to see the Boston schedule and here to see the North schedule). Schedule a ballet, jazz, or tap class to pick up where you left off twinkling your childhood toes, or start learning ballroom dance; it's easier to stay motivated and appreciate classical dance techniques as an adult, when waning Cinderella-fascination is compensated for by the twin feet of patience and discipline.
For specialty moves, the Boston studio offers Irish step (instructor Patti Hunter has competed in the All World Championships in Galway, Ireland) and hip-hop classes. Or get fit dancing in an aerobic Zumba class or ballroom session at the Peabody location. Other classes, such as Pilates and jazz/ballet/tap, are common to both locations. Busting a move you've never busted before-be it a Zumba move, a contemporary ballet move, or a well-coordinated move to a nicer part of town, away from that mouthy opossum that keeps opening your mail-is a great way to get exercise, learn a new skill, and meet new and graceful friends for an inevitable light-footed jewel heist.
Mass Motion's instructors have danced around the world and into hundreds of students' hearts over years of teaching. The ballet and hip-hop teacher Sandra Shih Parks toured with a Broadway production of The King And I as well as choreographed and performed in more than 75 different concerts, and founder Terri Gordon was a member of the modern dance company of the Cologne Opera in Germany. Bring a friend or buy a Groupon for bridesmaids who want to wow on the dance floor. Afterward, in your shoe bin, your shoes will have plenty of stories to share with the high-heeled alligator-skin brogues that haven't been out since last year's home fumigation.

Free Pancakes Anyone?
Imagine a pile of golden brown pancakes, dripping with melted butter and overflowing with syrup.
Cost to you? $0. Benefit to children's hospitals? Hopefully $5 million.
For the fifth year in a row, IHOP is celebrating National Pancake Day on February 23 by offering all customers a free short stack of pancakes from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. In return, the restaurant's hoping you'll consider making a donation to its charity of choice, the Children's Miracle Network.
Traditionally held on Shrove Tuesday, this year's event falls a week later to maximize donations. More than $3.25 million has been raised over the years, and the 2010 goal is to hit the $5 million mark.
There may be no such thing as a free lunch, but breakfast's another story.

Weekly Menu Planner
If your like me, trying to figure out what's for dinner each and every night can seem like a chore. Personally, I hate it. So I came up with the idea of planning ahead. This saves time because I can go to the grocery store one time for the week to make sure I have all of my ingredients for that weeks dinner. So, below is my list of dinners for the week:
Monday - Beef tacos with spanish rice
Tuesday - Sausage, peppers and onions w/garlic bread and salad
Wednesday - Breakfast for dinner :)
Thursday - Penne w/meatballs, salad and rolls
Friday - Chicken stir fry w/ brown rice

Happy Saturday Everyone.....
I was going to try and post yesterday but between having to work, spend time with the family, and not to mention I was exhausted - I decided to post everything today and boy are there a lot of cool stuff to post. I will post after daily rant...
Aj stayed at papa's house last night. Normally that is his usual Friday night thing to do. Basically when the weekends come around, we don't see him much. He is with Papa on Fridays and spends Saturdays with his dad. It kinda stinks because he is in school all week and then we don't usually see him until late Sunday.
Bam Bam, as we like to call him now is continuing to explore his world around him. He discovered yesterday that he can open the refrigerator if he braces himself against the wall and pulls really hard. I guess that's better than him opening and closing the stove door. He is getting a bit brave with taking steps. He is beginning to pull himself up on things (like tables, chairs etc..) and walk along until he reaches the end. I'm sure he will be walking soon - God help us!!!! no- wait... God help me!

Vacation Day 3
I Apologize for not actually writing anything on Day 3, but I was very busy running around doing my errands! Have I mentioned how much I hate errands for deeper reasons than I care to go into right now. Any hoo.......
Aj went skiing with is uncle Danny yesterday. He was super excited to go. he went over the weekend with his dad and now I think he has the skiing bug. He knew his uncle Danny loves to ski so he called him up very casually and hinted around to him that he would like to go skiing. Well, Uncle fell for it and they went yesterday. I was a bit nervous because you hear of all these people getting hurt in the slopes and me being the worry wart that I am, I thought I was going to get the call that my son fell or got hurt and was being wisked away in an ambulance. Well, skiing went off without a hitch. Aj came back without a scratch and a big smile on his face. He had a blast, then again he always does with his uncle. He was so excited to tell me that he rode the ski lift and went down the "big hill!" he was so proud of himself and so was I. After I fed the boys lunch it was off to run errands yuck.
Aj slept over his papas house last night - he loves sleeping over there. He puts his papa through a lot though - knee hockey, games on the x-box and watching wrestling.. Thank god for papas xoxo
