Grocery Smarts

There's this website called Grocery Smarts that I've been really getting into. It helps you save a ton of money on groceries. Tonight I went to Albertsons with my grocery list and coupons and got 30 items totalling about $89. I only spent $36.21! I saved more money than I spent with my coupons. It is AMAZING, and I'm in love with this website! Plus, on top of that, I got $20 in coupons back to use on my next shopping trip.

My dream

I've been wanting to post the dream I had on here for a while now and I'm finally getting to it! So a weeks or so ago I had the most amazing dream of my life! In my dream we had Logan and I was on maternity leave. I was sitting on our bed with him in my arms and I looked at him and said, "You look just like your dad!" This baby's face was the cutest face I have ever seen!!! EVER!!! I honestly can't get over how cute this baby was, and the best part was it did look JUST LIKE ADAM!!! (slight differences, but what baby looks exactly like their parents?) I woke up and couldn't help but smiling. I keep wondering if I actually caught a glimpse of what my son is going to look like. I'm even more excited to see this little baby that's been growing inside of me so I can see if this is what he's going to look like.

On another note, Adam and I went and saw the movie "Coraline" this morning. It was pretty good! The only bad thing about it was our 3D glasses kept sliding down our noses. After that, we both went to my voice lessons then to Target to do a baby registry. We finally had a time together that we could go do it so we seized the opportunity. I'm sure I'll add more onto it once I look at the things online.

I haven't forgotten my blog I promise!!!

Okay, let me update everyone... I saw the doctor on Wednesday and he said everything was fine and I could go back to working as normal. So no bed rest for me, yay!!!! Thank goodness! What a relief!!! Logan can come early, just not this early. I am now almost 33 weeks (on this Tuesday) and I am ready to be done... I'm so tired all the time now. Adam looked at me the other day and said, "You look tired." I said, "Because I am tired." He told me I look tired all the time. I guess my outside is now showing what I feel on the inside! Well, at least I'm almost there! Just 7 more weeks... (and then a completely different tired is coming) We have the crib and mattress, car seat, and bassinet/playpen. I just need a breastpump and I would like a rocking chair in there but it's not really a need. We were going to do a Super Mario Brothers theme in his room, but that was just too expensive to do what we wanted to do. So now we're doing Disney's Pixar Cars. I bought a border for the room and it looks so cute! I'm getting more and more excited and nervous as it comes closer. I'm realizing that I have to push him out....
My sister told me about this awesome website that can save you a TON of money on groceries! I love this website! I'm excited to go grocery shopping now. Two weeks ago I went shopping with all these coupons from this website and our total before they scanned in the coupons was $87. Our total after the coupons were scanned in was $57. I was SHOCKED!!! It was the coolest thing to see though! I went grocery shopping again this last Saturday and I didn't save quite as much, but it was worth it. I'm going to a free class this Tuesday to learn more about it and I can't wait! I'm hoping to learn how to use this better so I can save more!

Triage Fun

So yesterday at work I got my weekly baby update in my email. Well, in this email it said call your doctor if you have any of these symptoms. Well, two of them were menstrual like cramping and lower back pain. Well, a couple of times I have had cramping and I've had lower back pain for about a week now. It's just gradually been getting worse. So I asked my friend at work if she thinks I should call. We decided it couldn't hurt so I called. Well, they told me I needed to go to Labor and Delivery and they would let them know I'm coming. My stomach dropped! I called Adam and let him know where I was going. He couldn't get out of work or he would be kicked out of the training he was doing. So I went by myself. I left work around 5:00 and got the the hospital around 5:20. I got all checked in and was giving a cup to pee in and a gown to put on. So they took my urine to test for a bladder infection. Next they hooked me up to some monitors. One for the baby's heart beat and the other for contractions. I was having some contractions, and when they took my temperature I had a slight fever. So they gave me some Tylenol to get my fever down and I laid there some more. Well, around 7:00 I wasn't liking sitting by myself too much so I called my sister to come and sit with me. She got there around 7:30 and it made me feel lots better to have someone there with me. My fever had gone down and they gave me some pills to calm down my uterus and stop the contracting and hopefully to stop my back pain. Well, it was working. My contractions went away and my back pain left. I was just feeling very tired and loopy from the pills. Then I got sick and I said to my sister, I think I'm going to throw up. She grabbed me a bowl and as soon as I got the bowl I threw up. After that I felt much better and laid back down. About 3 minutes later I was feeling sick again so the nurse gave me the garbage can until she could get me another bowl. As soon as I got the bowl I threw up two more times. It was not fun! By the time they let me go home, it was 10:00 at night; and since I had taken those pills I couldn't drive. So I left my car there and my sister drove me home and my dad and Adam went and picked up my car. It was a very long night and now today I'm on bed rest. I'm supposed to call the doctors if I start cramping or getting back pain again. Hopefully I won't. It's too soon for this little guy to come out! 

Honeymoon Video

I had to take our computer in to get it fixed, so I got out our old computer that doesn't quite work right (in fact it could shut off on me any minute now). On this computer we have all sorts of pictures that I have now burned to a disk so that we can put them on our other computer when it gets back. Well, I found this video that we took on our honeymoon to Disneyland and it is so funny! In Disneyland they have these garbage cans that literally move around the park and talk to people. So here is the talking garbage can we found!

Old Maps

I rearranged our living room this past week and moved all the pictures on the walls around. For my living room the theme is travel. At least that's what I'd like the theme to be. We have lamps that look like stacked luggage and we have a trunk that my aunt gave us when we moved into our house. Last summer at my grandma's house my grandparents were getting rid of a lot of their stuff but hung onto it and let the family go through it all and pick what they wanted. Well, I found 3 old maps that my grandma had pasted onto some wood for an art project. I fell in love with them. They just looked so cool! I had to talk Adam into letting me take them home and he's glad that we did. They just look so cool on the wall. Well, at a Christmas party we had with my mom's side of the family my grandma said she had found another one that she had and asked me if I wanted that one as well. I jumped on the opportunity! So now I have all 4 on my wall in the living room and they look wonderful! I'm glad I have something to remember my grandma by when she passes on (hopefully not for a long time!). My mom loves them too and is glad that they're being kept in the family.

Fun with family

My two nieces!

This morning, Adam's older brother called us up and asked if we could hang out at our house. Of course we said SURE!!! So they came over this afternoon and we all got Panda Express for lunch and ate it at our house while Adam and Darrel played "Little Big Planet" on the PS3 (a new game I got for Adam). Camila and I were looking at Disney World stuff and I showed her our crib and carseat that we got for Logan. Then we played Rock Band, which they brought over to play. I love the drums on that game!!! I've been getting pretty good! And of course they brought their two cute girls over too. Bella and Arielle watched Alice in Wonderland and a little bit of A Goofy Movie. They are so stinkin' cute!!! So we had lots of fun today!
