It just simply takes to much time away from my little family!
I need this time to prepare for the future with all the changes we have and most importantly to be with my three kids without being stressed or overwhelmed!
Today I want to share with you one of my not so secrets :)!
Shopping! I LOVE to shop.....BUT....I HATE to spend full price on ANYTHING!
I won't do it! I can't do it! I just simply have a heart attack if I have to!
So, with three kids needing summer clothes I was freaking out a little BECAUSE...I usually buy EVERYTHING the year before when stores do the end of year clearance!
Well...my husband and I set out Saturday for the outlets. Before I went though....HERE IS MY SECRET...
I printed ALL the coupons I possibly could find!
Chilren's Place, Gap, Osh Kosh,Carters....pretty much ALL stores....have ONLINE COUPONS!
So my friends...I am proud to say I spent UNDER $200 and got MOST of the THREE kids clothes for summer!
That included....Easter outfits AND swimming suits :)!
How are you making it as a mom? This last week ALL my kiddos were sick, sick, sick. Not just...coughing...we still can get stuff done sick...but....puking....laying on the floor doing nothing sort of sick!
BLAH!!!
But...today is Monday...I LOVE Mondays! New fresh week to start with :)!
Today I wanted to share some ideas for helping your kids be more accountable.
This is a new stage of life for me...I have been doing EVERYTHING for the past well...5 years!
Having 3 kids in 2 1/2 years I was in a mode.....well I am breaking out!!!
I wanted a chore chart....but not a chart :)
Here are some ideas I found to help me with that!
First...if I wasn't so busy....or lazy....I would have LOVED to make these fromMake It Sparkly Mama!
How cute right? The kids just move the sticks when they are done :)!!!
The next idea I found was fromSoap Star Momon etsy. She sells the boards and everythings! I LOVE it!
Awesome right? It was SO hard to choose what I wanted to do....
I came across magnets though from Abbies Houseon etsy.
I already had a magnet board and I can cut vinyl so I knew these were it! It was a HARD choice, but I am so excited to start having a more organized house :)!
Later in the week I will show you my board and tell you how I do it with the kiddies!!!
