Chris, L & Aiden, R.... Making our lives complete!
Aiden & Christopher turn 7 months old today! What have we been up to over the past 7 months? Well, according to my calculations, we've been cleaning approximately 5,000 dirty diapers, feeding approximately 15,000 oz of milk and giving approximately one million kisses to our precious little guys! Life couldn't be better and we couldn't be more blessed!
This week our friend Amanda came over for a visit and some play time on Monday night. She also brought all kinds of new things for the boys to play with. It was like Christmas for all of us as the boys LOVE their new things and I LOVE having new things to entertain them with! The weather was perfect and we were able to sneak out for 2 long walks so neither the boys nor I could have asked for more!
Yesterday was Dziadz's birthday so we snuck out to surprise him on his route with a birthday treat! The boys liked the change of pace and Dziadz loved his surprise birthday visit. Later in the afternoon we met up with our friends Caroline and Mathieu for a walk on the Windsor Locks Canal bike path. It was again another gorgeous day with lots of sunshine and a cool breeze. I would have been happy if the walk could have lasted all day! Yesterday evening Leeanne came for a visit. We went out for another awesome walk before the boys hit the sack for the night. Thank goodness I have new, comfy sneakers! It was great to see Leeanne and catch up. Mike has been on a P90X kick lately so we came back from our walk and watched Mike "do his thing..." of course directing his from the couch :)
Today Grammie Hopkins came over to watch the boys this morning so that I could get out. It was SO nice to get out and miss the crowds at the grocery store and Costco that I have grown accustomed to on Saturday mornings. The boys loved seeing Grammie and I loved having the chance to get out by myself and felt great about the errands I got done!
I have decided to join the Central CT Mothers of Multiples group. Tonight is our first meeting so I am a bit nervous about going, not knowing what to expect. I tried to convince Mike and Auntie Laura that it was bring a friend night, but they're not having it :) I'll keep you posted about how it goes!
I want to thank Melanie and Karen for their comments to my grocery shopping post. I saved 86% today at Big Y... whoo hoo! I put your names in a hat to pull the winner for the giftcard to Stop & Shop and the winner is..... Karen! I will pass your info along to the company to have your prize mailed out! Thanks again guys for participating!!!! I am getting into coupons and will have to check out Price Right. I am very big into trying to save more than I spent when they tell you the %'s after your purchases!

I won! Wow, I never win anything. So how did you save 86% at Big Y? Do you use coupons?
Oh yeah Karen! You should be getting it in the mail soon! I used coupons, shopped pretty much 95% sales and used Big Y's double dollar coupons as well. I also just realized that Big Y doubles any coupon you bring in for less than $1!
