My New Favorite Toy!

Is it sad that a sweeper/vacuum is a "toy" to me?  :-)  My hubby came home with a new swivel sweeper for me yesterday--and I LOVE IT!  I have posted before about how much I hate floors.  I don't have tile throughout my house (thank God-I couldn't handle that!)  I only have tile in the 3 bathrooms, kitchen, entryway, and my scrapbook room/classroom.  I MUST sweep daily, especially in the kitchen (white tile) and I really should wash the floor daily, but I tend to slack on that.  Once I finish all of the sweeping I am not in the mood to mop too.  I complain about it ALOT, so I guess my husband got the hint and came home with the above. 

I just wanted to share how much time it saves me!  Time is so precious to me.  I enjoy spending AS MUCH time as possible with my kids and husband, so anything that saves me time is a fave of mine!  With this new gadget, I finished sweeping ALL of the tile in under 15 minutes.  And-it has a 45min battery, so I had plenty of battery left. I had one a few years ago,  but this one is much better.  You don't have to remove the bottom by hand anymore, there is a button you press instead.  The battery is longer, and the swivel head reaches more places than the original version.

I searched online for it (hubby got ours at Publix!)  and the cheapest I could find the new G2 version was HERE!

Lack of Posts......

My lack of posts today is due to a sick lil Miss Clara!  There she is cuddled up on the couch watching Thomas the Tank.  She has had a fever all day so I've been snuggled up with her on the couch! I hope to catch up after the kids bedtime :-)

FUN Day planned!

I will be back later today with CVS & Walgreens matchups.  Im off to color Easter pictures, visit with the Bunny,  hunt for some eggs, boil & paint eggs....and maybe "taste" some of the Easter Candy to be sure it's safe for the kids baskets tonight! :-)

Home Again.....

Thank you for all the emails & comments wishing us a safe trip.  We had a great mini-vacation camping on Anastasia Island.  For those of you that haven't heard of it, it is in St. Augustine, FL.  We had a great time with our friends.  We are blessed to have best friends that also have 4 children that are very close in age to our 4, so every year we get together to camp and everyone has a playmate.  We did make it through the terrible  rainstorm our second night! That was a little rough, but we survived.   We ended up coming home a day early because I barely made it through the CHILLY night last night (52) and tonight was going to be colder, so we left 1 day earlier than we had planned.    This trip prepared us for our big vacation in July. (Family reunion in the mountains) -- but this time we will be in cabins...ahhh.  :-)
Thanks to all my great friends that kept me up to date on the best deals & my readers who kept sending me their great finds!!

Some Birthday LOVE!

Our beautiful baby girl

(1 day old)

What a blessing!!

What a joy!

HAPPY 2ND BIRTHDAY CLARA ELIZABETH!
