Couponing websites

I have officially decided to start couponing. I’m not even sure what has taken me so long to do this other than the fact that my life is just so busy, that I kept putting it off. Well NO MORE! I still have lots to learn especially since all my friends are a HUGE step ahead of me!  BUT, I have found some really great blogs and websites that have all kinds of couponing info. So of course, I wanted to share them with all of you!  I will add more as I find them!  Happy couponing!

If anyone else knows of more helpful sites, please comment under this post so that I can add it to my list. In times like this, we really need to save as much money as possible and help each other out!

Helpful Blogs

When I first started my blog, I was determined to make it my “own” without paying anyone. I have become slightly obsessed now with designing it mainly b/c I know how to now! I had initially wanted to start designing blogs myself but opted against it b/c I am still learning new things everyday. I found lots of blogs with lots of tutorials and DIY’s.

That’s all I have for now but I will continue to add links when I find a new one! Hope these blogs help you as much as they have helped me!

Who am I?

I’m Jamie, New mommy to Preston and “Bonus” mom to Ariel and Nicholas!  Picture 085  Timmy is the love of my life and my best friend!  I started this blog as a way to keep family and friends updated on our little family!  I have since, become alittle OCD about designing my blog rather than actually posting on it. I try to keep it interesting but find myself sometimes running out of things to say. Imagine that?!  Other than being a new mom, I am a makeup artist. I have been doing makeup for almost 10 years and still love what I do!  I worked for MAC cosmetics for 5 years and still freelance from time to time. Who knows, I might go back one day. My hobbies tend to change from time to time. Like lately, they have been anything blog design and photoshop. I have a day job at an Auto glass company working in the accounting department {so fun I can hardly stand it!} and so when I come home, my free time is with my little man and once he goes to sleep, it’s computer time!  I hardly sleep these day! Anyways, enough about me…allow me to introduce you to my little family!

There is so much to say about this man…he is so loving and passionate! He is one of the nicest guys you will EVER meet {and that’s the TRUTH!} He is insanely funny…sometimes in a very quirky way! He has so many hobbies, it’s hard for me to keep count and sometimes they make my head spin but I love him just the same. He is an AMAZING father {this is also the TRUTH!} The kids adore him. He will do anything for anyone…just ask and he’s there! He’s also my BEST FRIEND! I know I said that earlier but i’m serious! I love this man!!!

Ariel is such a sweet sweet little girl! She is a daddy’s girl all the way! And she is such a great big sister!!!  Preston absolutely loves her and Nicholas does too {he even tells her he loves her! true story!} She has been such a huge help since Preston was born. She knows how to change diapers and make bottles! What more could a mom ask for right?! She is sensitive at times but what girl isn’t! She is growing up so fast! Soon she’ll be a teenager but I have a feeling, we won’t have many problems with her! She is a very honest child and wants to talk about all of her feelings which I think is great!  Ariel sweet heart, I love you very much!

Oh my sweet Nicholas!  This boy is sooo funny!  He definately keeps me on my toes!  Everything that comes out of his mouth will have you on the floor laughing so hard! He is, I swear, the MOST honest kid I know! I have to sometimes to remind him, that some things, whether true or not, don’t always need to be spoken out loud! We are still working on this! He loves his siblings and LOVES being a big brother to Preston!  Sometimes he makes me nervous while playing with him, only b/c he is so rough and just doesn’t know his strength but I can definately see them being best buds in just a few more months! My Nicholas, I love you very much!

My little eggroll! He has been the light of life from the day he was born! He has such personality! I love seeing him evolve and grow and learn! He loves to explore and has me running all over the house constantly! I find myself having my camera attached to the hip ready to capture every waking moment of his life! Preston..my sweet baby boy!  I love you sooooo much!!!
