18 months and Going to Nusery

Today was AJ's official first day of nursery. One Sunday he was sick and the other we had family in town and didn't stay for all three meetings. When I went to drop him off, he saw the balls in the closet and that's all it took! He was off to play with the balls!

Speaking of balls... today was a missionary farewell and it was PACKED! We ended up sitting in the gym. Not a great choice considering AJ knows what a basketball hoop is and how it should be used. He constantly yelled out, "Mom ball!" and pointed up to the hoop. It was torture for the poor kid!

When I went to pick him up I was told he did great for his first day. I now understand the angst mothers feel when they drop off their child on their first day of kindergarten! We sure love our boy! I can't believe he is already in nusery!

Saved $214.09

I Love Deals to Meals! I know I have mentioned this site before, but I LOVE it! I love knowing I am getting great deals! It is SO worth the 5bucks a month! AJ eats oatmeal for breakfast every morning, he loves the stuff. He will eat 2 packages at one sitting. Harmon's has Quaker oatmeal on sale for 5 for $8, not bad, but they also have an in store coupon for $3.00 off of any 5 Quaker products so that makes them $1.00 a box! YEAH! We stocked up! I also went through our food storage and we purchased items that are red (really good deals) to top off our shelves. Altogether we spent $143.08, saved $178.09 on "great price savings" and $36.00 using coupons for a grand total of $214.09! It is fun when you can go to the store and do that!

Victoria and AJ

We had the privilege of having the Malmstrom family come down and spend some time with us. Victoria and AJ sure hit it off! She loved playing with AJ and AJ loved playing with her! Cousins are GREAT!
