Happy Friday!

I can tell it is Friday, because I am wearing my jeans!

Any exciting weekend plans? I finally have a free weekend with nothing on my schedule.

Re: Happy Friday!

  • I am wearing jeans too. I put on my Gap Maternity jeans this morning and they felt like they shrunk. I'm so bummed. I put on my regular jeans and believe it or not they fit. 23 weeks tomorrow and I'm still in regular jeans and pants. I'm happy.

    Plans for the weekend, I am thinking of going up to Trader Joes (an hour away) with my mom. I'm just not sure because money is tight and everytime I go I spend around $200. However, we do need groceries. Maybe I'll go and budget myself to $120.

  • There is nothing wrong with $200 if that stuff is going to last you for 2-3 weeks. Yay for still fitting in old pants!

    Yes, it will. Usually when I do a shopping at Trader Joes it lasts about 4-6 weeks. I stock up on cereals, snacks, cheese, meats, etc.

  • I know money is tight for you, but think about it this way, you are actually spending $33-50 a week for that food, which really isn't bad at all.

    .Yes, you're right and at least it is natural or organic food that DH and I feel good about eating.

  • I agree. I wish I could get J to eat more healthy things. He is an extremely picky eater.

  • Yay for Friday.  It's also our jeans day but I'm in yoga pants.  My maternity jeans still fit but they are becoming uncomfortable.  Pretty much anything besides yoga pants are becoming uncomfortable.  LOL.

    Tara - your trip to Trader Joe's sounds like my trip to Sams.  I always spend between 200-300 when I go, but we get lots of stuff that lasts us for months.  I usually only go to Sams twice a year.  But we stock up on toilet paper, paper plates, bar soap, ect.   Definitely worth it when you space out the cost over that time frame.  It just stinks to have to pay it all at once.

    No weekend plans really.  Which is nice after the super busy weekend we had last weekend.  I would like to get the car seat base installed this weekend.  And maybe organize the nursery.  We pretty much brought everything home from the shower and just dumped it in the nursery.  I already did my grocery shopping on my lunch today.  Paul and I aren't big into NFL so we probably won't watch the Superbowl.

  • I am around.  Last weekend J was hungover and today now he is sick.  He is debating going to Denver to a friends on Sat if he feels better.  Sunday is a superbowl party.

     

  • Made cookies this morning and just finished writing and addressing all my thank yous for my shower last weekend. I figured I should get those done before my next shower.

  • I am staying the weekend with my parents in Colorado Springs. I have still been helping my dad out with clients. We will watch the Super Bowl tomorrow. Then head home Monday. Hope everyone has a great weekend
