Anyone started planning Christmas gifts yet???

I have and I sincerely recommend you sign up for ABC DISTRIBUTING, its free and you get a catalog every month and I cannot tell you how much Allen & I save! Also I was at KMART the other day and they have a Tremendous sale on all toys! so I would definitely check that out. Speaking of Christmas, How does it work at your house? Ours will be totally different this year with our Autumn! We will hopefully have a Loooong fun filled day! and go to my Mother In laws around Lunch and my Aunts at Dinner :) Christmas will be right around the corner!!! Ahhhhhh let the Shopping begin! (thats for you Allen.)

Advice from the Thrifty Mom

I for one would classify myself as a "thrifty mom" & I gotta say it helps save in huge ways. My advice is that if you can live w/o it, you don't need it! (pshhhhhh....thats b.s.) Sometimes you just WANT IT!!! haha but If you can shop around for it, take the time & do it! For instance, Clothes- go to the thrift store or consignment, you get wayyyyy more for your $$$. Yes that one little outfit will look cute and adorable, but there are plenty of outfits that look just as cute and adorable and you can get 3 of those instead of 1!!!

Toys- first think, how many does your baby have similar to the one you are looking at? If you are like me, you would say, they don't....you know they do haha! And so this is where it gets tricky, if its anymore than 10 bucks...go to at least 2 consignment shops and I guarantee you will find it for less!

As for big equipment type items, that you just can't have hand-me down, (crib, carseat) follow these steps, Walmart, Ebay, Amazon then if you can't find it cheaper than Babies R Us, look for online coupons to at least cutdown the tax and/or shipping.

dance classes for babies

So im looking for dance classes for autumn. nothin serious but just for fun. let me know if anyone has some suggestions.

Who in the world sizes clothes???

Ok so my soon to be 7month old daughter can happily fit herself into 18 mo carters outfits! I cannot believe it! I hope she can wear the 12-18 Christmas coat I just got her!!! when she was 5 1/2 mos she was wearing a 12mo old bathing suit. But I am completely dumbfounded right now as I look at her and she is wearing an 18 mo old Panda bear legging type pants w/o feet and a matching panda t shirt and its not even baggy! :) I will post pictures of this in a lil bit!
