Good Deals and Baby Bump

Being married to Scott is awesome! He taught me how to cook, be a good wife and to not pay full-price for things that I want. Here are some of the good deals we've had recently.

72 cents for 2 clippers and a water temperature sensor from overstock.com (shipment was free)

$6 for 4 pairs of tiny shoes (orig. $39.96) from toysrus store

Since it's getting harder for me to walk for a long period of time, I do most of my baby shopping online. This is me at 26 weeks and 5 days.

Cross Stitching

People always ask me what I do at home when Scott is working. I will tell you but first you have to realize that I've been a stay-at-home wife for about 17 months now so I've pretty much mastered the art of doing nothing. But in all honesty besides from the daily routine of sleeping, eating and watching movies online I also like to cross stitch. And when I get really really bored I clean the house. So for the past year or so here's what I've done with my time.





These projects make me feel like I've actually accomplished something. And now I just added blogging to my to-do-list.

Twirl a tie

I got Scott this tie hanger from ebay for $5.45. It's called twirl a tie and we both love it.

- cheap
- spins around
- fits all closet rails
- holds 20 ties

From this...


... to this.




Ahh so much better to look at. He loves collecting ties and I love organizing his ties. It's a win win situation.

February Glam Bag

So today I got my February Glam bag in the mail. Here's a picture of the stuff I got. Most of 'em are just sample sizes... Let's just say products from January were a lot better than this month.


What's in the February Glam bag?
- X Out Shine Control (oil-free moisturizer)
- NYX Roll On Shimmer (I have a 30% off voucher. Let me know if you want it.)
- Premier Dead Sea Cinderella Mask
- NuMe Professional Styling Tools and Hair Extensions $100 Gift card

Cheapest product they have is $115 mini iron and shipment depends on where you live. In my case its another $15 so its really not worth it. If you're willing to spend $30 on a mini iron let me know, I'd be happy to share with you my gift certificate.

- Freeman Facial Mask Sachets and
- a pink pouch


My Glam is like birchbox, loose button, glossy box, or glymm. Basically they are make up companies that you can subscribe to and pay about an average of $10 a month. They send you either full-size/sample size products ranging from low to high-end make up.

Pros:
- full-size products
- high-end make up
- you can cancel subscription anytime

Cons:
- sample size
- products may not be something you want

Valentines

Scott came home with this beautiful fruit arrangement. It was the tastiest flowers I've ever had! Right now my buddha belly needs fruits more than red roses.

We're pregnant!

After a year and 7 months of waiting our little angel finally decided it's time to come down to earth. This is her first picture at 17 weeks and 6 days. It melted my heart when she waved at us.


And this is the pregnant momma at 22 weeks and 6 days.


Now you might ask where the pregnant dada is... Well let's just say he's busy making some mula for his little girls.
