Have to fill you on this great site!  I am not sure how I even found it, but I was playing around and saw that the wife, Alyse, of a boy I used to babysit (yikes...I am old) had this adorable font on her blog.  Through a process, I found this site.  I have been following this blog/site for months!  There are a plethora of things to look at...right down to fonts, organization, recipes, scrapbooking info, blog design, and much more.  Amanda won some trip to LA.  This is crazy because she actually just met a girl that I went to junior high with named Jenny at Picky-Palate.  If you are big time, the blog world is small.  :)  Check out the site...you will love it!

I LIKE TO SHOP

Yes, we all know that I like to shop, particularly, for my children.  A while ago, I started following this blog called My Mom Shops.  I am really enjoying some of the tips and great finds she shares.  Check it out and see if it is something you will be interested in.  Wondering why I didn't think of this...sometimes I feel like a detective trying to find out where I can get the cutest kids' clothes for the cheapest!  I should try to share my finds with you more often...if anyone still reads this thing!  :)

Top Mommy Blogs

So, upon chance, as most things happen for me when playing on the computer...I came across this website about Top Mommy Blogs. You must check it out! I love being a mommy and finding new ideas to make my life just a bit easier and add some flare. You must check it out! I have already added several of the sites to my blog list. Yes, that means there is more for me to try and accomplish while my house looks like a war zone! Happy searching!

Saving Money, Money! Yea! Yea!

I just recently became obsessed with coupons. Yes, one more thing to be obsessed with during nap time or the wee hours of the night! Anywho, I love when I can save a buck in order to spend a buck on something for the kids (or put into savings)! I have come across a few websites/blogs that are awesome. They really take the guess work out of the whole process and make it easier to follow. I have been saving about a $100 every two weeks! AND no I am not buying stuff I don't need or usually use! Check them out!

Hip 2 Save...found while surfing money saving blogs; LOVE THIS...all kinds of deals!
Southern Savers...my friend Sarah Bragg recommended this site and it is so helpful!
Happy Homemaker...my friend, Chris (Fischer) Back attends a Mom's group with this blogger-I am fairly new to this one, but like that it is by someone local, so it better fits my Kroger Sales Ads.

Learning the BLOG world

Still learning the tricks of the blog trade. I actually wrote about my favorite Bike Lady and was waiting on a picture of her. Got the picture and wanted it to be posted for yesterday's date, but somehow it ended up a few posts down...so if you are interested...scroll down to read more about the infamous neighborhood bike lady!

Oh, also, along the blog learning status...I am looking at ways to make my little blog cute and stylish. I tried to use some of the free ones (good idea-Sarah Bragg...), but am having a hard time getting it to stick because of my computer! Bare with me until I can find the best fit or feel okay about spending money on the blog and/or a new computer!

BTW, I wanted to link you up to Sarah's page without it looking like a webpage, but still learning how to do that too! Check her out, she wrote an amazing book for young girls, but it was a great reminder for me too! http://sarahbragg.blogspot.com/ :)
