Saturday mornings start at seven I guess

Both kids were up at seven as usual. Oh well we didn't need sleep right?

I did two weeks worth of shopping yesterday as it was pay day, and my usual shopping day. The house is full of produce once again. Avocados and mangoes were on sale this week so we have those along with bananas and the usual suspects. I ended up spending 135 at Meijer for groceries and a few personal/household items. I went to Target in the morning too, and found the steal of the year. They had boy's coats on clearance. I got Gabe's coat for next winter for 5 dollars! Cyan's I think was 13, but the tag when I got it home said 18...I pretty sure I looked at the tag on a different size and grabbed this one. Either way she is set, and I didn't pay full price. I also bought some of those Gerber yogurt melts. We usually make all her food, but they looked interesting. She really likes them, and they kept her happy while I was grocery shopping. I just wish I could figure out how to make them. Freeze dried yogurt is not a do at home process I guess.

I do plan to make yogurt this two weeks. We have hubby's parent's old yogurt maker. I bought yogurt too, but it's fruit on the bottom which has lots of sugar, and I want some for Cy.

Confession...Gabe and I ate and had coffee at Starbucks yesterday in Target. It's sort of a ritual on payday Friday for us. I thought about saying no we couldn't do it, but it's something that Gabe really enjoys. It used to just be him and I, and we would sit and talk while he had a cookie and milk for breakfast. I couldn't take that from him even if his sister is thrown in now. He only has until September anyway, and then he'll be in school full time on Fridays too. I'm actually not sure how I'll get stuff done then. The bus comes at the same time as hubby needs to be at work. I suppose I'll figure it out. I always do. :)

I'm not sure what we're having for dinner tonight. Hamburgers maybe. I splurged a little and bought Nature Well beef. I got a bunch of stuff for cheap or free working the coupon angle. It makes it a easier to splurge a little.
