My Favorite Website for Deals!
I absolutely love Freebies2deals.com. Jeff and I check this website everyday. We have received so many free samples of body wash, lotion, and shampoos that it will be awhile until we actually have to buy some. The one thing I love getting is coupons for stuff for Sara. When Sara was still wearing diapers, there were some many time when I would get a package of diapers for just a couple bucks because this website lets you know when and where things are on sale and how to match up coupons with it to make it even cheaper.
If you haven’t already checked this website out, you should. It’s one of my favorite.
Glitter Toes!
I went with Sara and Kristina today to have their toenails done. Kristina’s friend, Laura, is attending a school to get licensed to do this stuff.
Kristina got a French manicure and Sara wanted Glitter Toes. After convincing her that she really wanted pink toenails instead of dark blue we were all set. Here are two quick videos of Sara patiently having hers done.
The Happiest Place on Earth!
We spent two fantastic days at Disneyland to celebrate my 30th birthday. I love Disneyland! We had such a blast. It had been nine years to the day since my last dose of Disney and it was Sara’s first visit. There is nothing better than seeing your baby light up with so much happiness. Sara loved every minute of it. From the rides to her favorite characters to the musical parades, everything was new and exciting. Disneyland was such a great vacation for us. I can’t wait to go again!

Sara was so cute with the Sword in the Stone. She tried and tried to pull it out and then she told me, “It’s stuck, Mommy. It’s stuck!” Too cute! Her first ride was The Haunted Mansion. We prepared her for the darkness and told her it was all pretend. She actually really liked it and wanted to go again. Sara kept asking for a Mickey Mouse cookie, but all she wanted was to eat off all the frosting. She didn’t actually eat any of the cookie.
Who doesn’t love posing with the characters at Disneyland?! We were lucky that the character lines were rather short (except the Princess line, of course). I was more than happy to wait for over an hour so Sara could meet some of the princesses. She was a bit shy at first, but once we got to Cinderella, she was so happy. Sara hugged her and played with her dress and even tried to snuggle with her. I’m pretty sure it was the highlight of her day!
More Halloween Fun
Halloween is always fun and eventful for our family. We love to carve pumpkins and make sugar cookies. We took Sara to a pumpkin patch and helped her cut a pumpkin straight from the vine. Most of the big pumpkins were already taken, but that was perfect for her because she adores anything that is small and calls them babies. She got two baby pumpkins this year. In an effort to have a matching theme with our costumes, I made Jeff’s Peter Pan costume and my Wendy Darling dress so we could match our little Tinkerbell. I am pretty happy with my sewing results, but next year I think I’m going to pick something a little simpler.
