Snippets in pictures

I got the best deal at Target the other day. Apparently they are getting rid of their store brand diapers, so they discounted the remaining products. A box of 90 diapers was only...
$9.58! AMAZING! I got so excited that I couldn't stop loading boxes into my cart. Hence the reason Porgie's room now looks like a warehouse...

I got a box of butter creams for Mother's Day. OH MY FREAKING GOD, these chocolates were amazing. I ate them all. A whole pound. And they were delicious.

Here is a picture of the tree that is offending my neighbors...

It is a big, beautiful maple tree. I love it. I haven't found anyone willing to trim the tree for less that $300. That is just too expensive. So, John is going to try to trim back a few branches this weekend.

Porgie's hair is just completely unmanageable lately...Maybe I should start brushing it?

I don't know why this picture came out with a red tint, but I think Izzy looks so angelic in it...

That's a great price for diapers!!!! I would have loaded up too. Her hair is cute, he is a little angel. And dang, that's a lot of chocolate. Looks food though. That tree is beautiful!!! I wouldn't want to pay that kind if money to trim
It either.

I hope John mamages to trim back the tree ~ $300 is a lot to pay someone to do it.

Wow on the price! Before we switched that was our favourite brand. They're getting rid of it?

Cute pics though!

That tree is so pretty. What a crazy lady for wanted it trimmed.
Izzy reminds me of a celebrity in that picture but I can't think of his name. He is such a cutie.

Cole's hair ALWAYS looks like Porgie's does in that picture. I never comb it. People probably think I am an unfit mother.

Target is changing their image so the old boxes have to go. Huggies is doing the same thing except they are also raising prices and lowering the count of diapers in each package. Greedy jerks!

My daughter always has a rat nest for hair in the morning. I got some J&J spray detangler and just spray some on and brush. Works great and it doesn't hurt her.

Hmmm, I wonder if Target is also disconiuing the pull-ups? We're in full-on potty-training mode with Will right now, so I would run right out & buy some.

Maggie gets major bed-head too. I always put her hair in a ponytail at night, then brush it out in the morning. problem solved.

mmmmmmm chocolate.

That is a LOT of diapers. I used Target brand once but they didn't seem to work-I sent them to daycare.

The tree is beautiful!

The hair is great. If E has hair it would look like that too.

Score on the diapers! I always buy multiples when things are on sale and my husband thinks I am crazy. My trouble is I sometimes buy things just BECAUSE they are on sale.
I'd tell your neighbor to suck it! It is a beautiful tree.
I am guilty of eating whole boxes of anything sweet. I will tell myself that I will only eat 1 or 2 and by the end of the day...whole box gone! I polished off 3 boxes of girl scout cookies myself. Then I wonder why the scale won't budge!

amanda said...

Hells to tha YEAH on the diaper deal? I would have bought all I could as well.

That's the tree? What! It's beautiful.. they are lucky you don't shove a branch or two up their asses. Get a life people!

Porgie's hair is just in that stage where it doesn't know what the hell to do.. Just slap a bow in it and call it a day, lol..

That pic of Izzy just melted my heart! Such a beautiful family.

You'd think I'd have a warehouse too. I've always been stocked on diapers because I started buying them when preggers...and wipes, etc. I STILL have diapers from that. And I stock up HUGE when they go on sale and I have coupons. Oh the fun! :)

Tree is gorgeous. Neighbor needs to shut the F up.
