Tuesday follows

I decided to join two link parties this week.  I have found it's a great way to meet others and find some great blogs!  I hope you will join too!

This week I'm linking up to:

Target deals

 Hip2Save and Totally Target have listed some great deals at Target for this week!

Unfortunately for my husband, Target is one of my all time favorite stores so I'm always looking for the best deals there.  I figured that if I spend as much time and money that I do there each week, I should at least save as much money as I can there.

There are times I run into issues with some cashiers when trying to stack coupons (using a manufacturer and store coupon).  This is why I always try to have their coupon policy with me so if there are any questions I can show the cashier.  Sometimes, they just might not be aware of what they can and can't do (although they should be trained on this). You can find their coupon policy here and you can print it out.

Be sure to check out Hip2Save and  Totally Target for lots of great deals!  But of course, keep checking back here.....I'll post some of my favorites :)

Just about the one I love!

If you don't want to hear sappy love then you can just skip this post.  I have to have a post just about my handsome husband.  I didn't plan on posting about him but instead I was going to talk about MTV or Kate plus 8......this won out!  I miss him today.  I miss him everyday.  But tonight, there was something different about me missing him......not sure what it is but it's a little more than usual.

We have a long history.....somewhat complicated but it's good.  Our life is good.  I will tell our story another time but for now, I just needed a post about him.  

Here we on our first night out after I had Jacob.  This was in Louisiana.  We moved there - to his hometown.  This is a long, complicated story that at the end of the day brought us closer.  I may talk about it one day.  For now, it's where my husband was born and raised and just a stepping stone to where we are now.

My husband loves to have fun.....loves to be with friends and family.

Wild crazy night.  Our 2nd crawfish boil.  No other comments needed ;)  But I will say my husband is a great cook and everyone loves his crawfish! 

He loves me.  He takes care of me.  And (literally) would go to the ends of the world to take care of us.

He is also a thinker.  When something is on his mind, he will analyze it over and over.  There was a time I thought this was a fault.....I've grown and learned that it's not.  It's a great characteristic of a man who wants to be sure that what he is doing and plans he is making will be best for his family. 

This is where he thinks.....

He is teaching our son about it too.....

He also thinks in the woods when he is hunting.  Being a woman that really doesn't want to go out hunting with him and I know he really doesn't want me to, I don't have a pic of him in a tree stand.  He does thinking out there too.

He loves his dog.  All good men love dogs - right?  This dog, Tig is a pain in my rear but he is a good dog that loves his family and protects us all.

He loves us.  His family.  I know we are everything to him and all he does is for us.....me, his little boy and his baby girl.

don't they look alike? It amazes me everyday!

His baby girl looks up to him and adores him.....

He survives kids field trips :)

And he is trying to turn our baby girl into a country girl.  He may succeed at this but if mommy has anything to do with it I will still make sure she is girly girl! 

There is so much more about this man that I could say about him.  His hard work and determination, his stubbornness, rough around the edges, a great cook, a handy man, , passionate, smart and more.  Oh.....and this too....

She is walking!!

Today my 13 month old finally started walking! 

She has been cruising the furniture for awhile now and will walk if we are holding her hands.  But, today is the day she did it all by herself!!

Addison was just sitting in the floor and stood up without holding onto anything and took 6 steps!  I was literally jumping up and down because I was so excited! 

But in typical Addison fashion.....I have the camera on stand by and now she refuses to walk.  LOL  That's ok....I'll get it on film sooner or later and share the video on here.

I'm so excited she has reached this milestone and just a little bummed that she is growing up! 

Sunday coupons for week of June 6th

I like to visit the Sunday Coupon Preview each week to see if I should purchase a paper (or two or three) for the week. 

I don't subscribe to the Sunday paper to receive coupons because I have found that purchasing the paper from Dollar Tree was more cost effective for me.  There are some weeks that our paper won't have coupons in them and as with all areas we don't always receive the same as others around the country.

Here is the link to Sunday coupons for the week of June 6th.  This week there are 3 inserts:  Red Plum, Smartsource and P&G!

You can also sign up to receive emails from them when the newest coupons become available.  And it's free!  :)
