Couponing and crankiness....

Today is Wednesday.... which means Maddie and I went couponing bright and early!

Got some pretty amazing deals today.... including 4 boxes of Honey Nut Cheerios for .88 each!  That was my biggest score.... but I also got 4 boxes of Cinnamon Toast Crunch for $1.50 each (not super great but still worth buying).... so yeah I bought 8 boxes of cereal today :o)
It only took us a little over two hours, and we went to three grocery stores.... I love to know what I'm getting so that I can get in and out!

On another note.... we have been trying to cut back Maddie's naps because she just isn't tired at bed time now.... She normally goes to bed at 9:00, but lately she hasn't actually been falling asleep until 10:00-10:30 which is INSANE!  Today she slept for a total of about 15 minutes on the way home from shopping.... and it is showing!  Can we say "CRANKY".... I tried to get her to rest more when we got home, but for some reason she just wasn't having it!  Oh dear lord I can't handle it.... when she gets overly tired there is nothing that can make her happy.... she's totally unreasonable about everything.

She has always been such a great sleeper.... not one argument about going to bed, etc. so this is all new to me!  I think I'm going to try to get her up earlier tomorrow and see how that goes, because she obviously still needs a nap!

Forgot to mention.... she is 100% panty now!  She only wears a pull-up at night (and normally that is dry....she wakes up and pees or poos in her potty in her room - for about a week straight now!)...... YAY!
I love the fact that one package of pull-ups lasts up about a month now..... soooooo much cheaper!  :o)

Now it's time to have baby #2..... just kidding!  We are probably still going to wait a little while... I want to get her into school first..... which is a whole other topic in itself! :o)
