Couponing is addictive!

It's true! I find it addictive, enjoyable and of all the addiction in this world, this is the only addiction where you can save money instead of wasting money hehe. I love couponing and I think even if I get rich, I'd still do it because I find it a hobby where I can do both of my favorites, shopping and saving at the same time. Here are some of my haul for the last couple of weeks.

Mom rewarded me

Thanks for the post from Kirk Wood

Mom got me direct tv to reward me for all the long nights I spent at the office since I got this new job. I recently got promoted and I feel really good about where I’m going at the company but I wish my boss was a little more understanding of the fact that I’ve got a child. Sara’s only 4 and I’m a single parentso I have to dip out early sometimes and I had to call in sick the first week of work because her school got cancelled for the day. It’s tough being in this position but I know I’m providing a better life for my little girl because of the work I do. I wish I got to spend more time with her but I know she knows I love her and that she realizes all the sacrifices I make all go back to her wellbeing. I remember when my mom used to work and how I thought that was normal – I want Sara to have that same attitude about her life and whether or not she should choose to work when she gets older, you know? She deserves that type of choice for herself.

My son Liam was born on November 11, 2011 (11-11-11)

My husband and I were both happy that our son, Liam, was finally born and he was born on the date we really wanted. I was scheduled to induce on the 11th of November, but on that day, I was already on labor around 5AM, so, the midwife told me that no matter what, he was really destined to be born on that day.

He weighed 8.7 lbs and 22.5 inches in height. He was really pretty long hehe. The labor was not bad because I asked for epidural and it took me 40 minutes to deliver him via normal delivery.His brother Zac welcomed him with a hug, smile and a kiss. Looking at them together makes me always smile.

I am very happy to have Liam as part of our family and thank you Lord for that wonderful blessing.
