Awesome mail day for us today . Got a ton of coupons, 2 out of the 3 Pampers Gifts to grow that I ordered, and I got my Nellie's All Natural Washing Soda to review and hold a Giveaway for . Super excited.
3rd
Won some sunscreen today to try and reveiw as well. It is suppossed to be an All_Natural product, so I am excited to try. Hopefully the ingredients are as All Natural as they claim as I don't really like to use any chemicals on little man (my oldest of course can now make all his own decisions on what he wishes to use, eat etc.

OMG THE MINIONS AT THE DRIVE-IN.... Have been waiting for this day for awhile now . Drive In was absoulutely jammed packed but we ended up in the spot we always get . Of course alot of ppl took their kids and left right after the Minions were over. Now You See ME was the second feature and that was an awesome movie as well. Love going on car load Thursday's , the amount of movie saved alone is more than enough. Plus it is 2 movies to boot for the price of 1 person , and we usually have 6 plus my little man. I figured we should have come earlier but we still had our spot.

7th
Decided to take a journey with my mom to visit my Grandpa while he sits with Nana at the nursing home. Always so sad to watch but today was better for me, I wasn't as heart broken as usual. I did manage to let my Nana know I love her and she gave a huge smile which was pretty much what I needed. I know how stubborn we are and I can't imagine her not being her head strong self . Little man got badly hurt by falling into the dresser. Mommy of course doesn't handle that well. You would think I would be able to deal after having one allready who is almost 18 , but I can't believe how much I have reverted and can't handle my Little Man being hurt . Of course my tears , probably made him cry worse. He was def Mommies suck for the rest of the day , which I let him be.
8th
Won yet another prize today :)
9th
Got alot of coupons yet again, and a book came in for Little Man with alot of cool Toddler recipes. Once moved and settled in somewhere going to go through it and see what he likes. Although I allready let him have almost everything we do , gearing some Toddler geared foodies may be fun and he may enjoy it.
10th
Got some more freebies and coupons today.. Decided it was a beach day and headed off to enjoy the beach.
11th
WON TIX TO RODEO.. So excited that I won 2 tix to a Rodeo for this weekend. Best part is I actually gifted them to someone who would love it more than myself and they had just bought themselves a horse. I love being able to gift out prizes I won as well.
12th
Picked up the tix I won and was surprised to get a really neat pad and pen as well. It was adorned with a cool graphic of the City of Cambridge. They other awesome surprise was that it was 4 tix not 2 :)
13th
Beach Day
Took off to the beach with Bestie as a tag along today. We ended up at Christie lake , it was way to packed at Valens. Chrisite had alot of great sand this time.
Bought little man his own cool beach toys. Not to bad of a deal only 12 bucks for 10 really good toys.
Had to get a shot of Little Man s pants falling down while he was playing in the sand.
He is a sucker for cheesy's.
Ready to go home. The best days ever are the days that you leave where ever you are , tired from play and dirty. He def. has fun at the beach everytime we go.
14th
Westfield
Love this place. Taking Bestie today and also picking up my surprise gift for Blogging about Westfeild. I didn't do it for anything just bc I love the place, but I guess sometimes surprises happen . Crazy prize pack, a huge beach bag, an umbrella , a lawn chair, a stuffed toy, some really cool ipod stuff I think, 2 pairs of sunglasses and a water. Can't believe what I was given as a gift , so amazing.
Got Little Man his first rock candy, he had a little taste but wasn't really quite sure what to make of it. It did of course end up on the ground after a few min.
Had quite a long chat with the guys who volunteer in the Blacksmiths shop. The one was very well versed in his history so was very interesting to listen.
House from Creepy Canada.
It was boarded up today so we couldn't go in.
We managed a fashion show while we were there. I got to take a few shots but Little Man wasn't having it and we excused ourselves so others could enjoy. We ended up in the Bandstand where he was running around and laughing and having a great time. A few other little boys came to play as well .
16th
More apartment hunting .
19th
Coupons in the mail along with a free Razor to try and review.
20th
Had another urge to shop and headed to another ZEHRS across town. Was pretty much on a whim but scored a very good deal on diapers. The huge boxes of Pampers 175 count were on sale for 32.99 plus I has a 2.50 off coupon . Was not a planned amount but the deal was to good to pass up even if I did just buy diapers the other day. I also got some baby gourmet snax for Little Man as I had a buy 3 get 2 free coupon.
I am pretty sure we just wanted to get out and drive , so okay Mommy wanted a drive.
21st
Family Beach Day
One thing I must say is that if anyone tries to hurt a member of our family we band together and build up a wall of defence if need be.. At one point my 2 little nephews were being bullied in the water by a pack of other kids and it was family to the rescue. Basically the bigger boys made a chain around the littler ones and just stared, everyone was wise ans backed off.
22nd
My daily mail was coupons from Websaver and my samples from Arbonne .
On the SuperHero Mom front, not to much, after the sun burns from the lovely beah day yesterday we pretty much munged out. Little man atually slept alot today

23rd
Totally had to go and get my FPC product today and so of course on the way to drop the boys off to the movie, I stopped back into Zehrs in hopes there were still the 4 baby snacks left from last night and WOOHOOOO they were there.
Boys are watching the Conjuring tonight , which I want to see so bad but like alot of other things on the back burner till I can see it at home on computer lol. They said it was amazing and scary.
Took my first steps into Target , thought it was a good idea to walk around the mall al little bit with little man. I didn't look at much but somehow ended up at the clearance section. I totally bought Zach toys which I never really do but wasn't leaving these behind. A BALL BOUNCE was 20 bucks (omg it has a motorized ball spinner on it )and I got him Little ppl animals , elephants and monkeys .. They were only 6 bucks each . Of course I had decided a few days ago to not spend money and get everything free from using SwagBucks for Amazon money , but I couldn't resist. I guess I was impulse buying to make me feel better.
Still apartment hunting, today was a down in the dumps day.
WOHOO found out I get to try and blog about some Purex stuff from Heinkels Insiders. Guess I should have signed up for more stuff. Once relocated and settled going to go gang busters on freebes, blogging, couponing, Swagbucks. You name it . Can't wait to have sooo much stuff all free. Slowly building my stock pile and can't wait till it is one full room :)
25th
Today was the last day for enteries in both my contests ( Nellie's and Woolzies) So excited to be doing Giveaways for other ppl. I am really starting to enjoy these perks and things that the couponing , contesting and blogging world have to offer.
26th
CANADA'S WONDERLAND
Made it's own post of course.. :)
29th
Hung out with the Bestie at the mall while visiting a near and dear friend who was in my neck of the woods today . Love walking around the mall if only to have some exercise. The best part about the whole couponing rage I am addicted to is that I look at stuff, but have no need to spend. That in itself is awesome . :)
It is becoming increasing apparent that being a single Mom you are still hit with blatant discrimination and chauvinism. Of course this SuperHero Mom should have had the wow , pop, pow, conversation bubbles over my head when I was talking to a potential new landlord. Not quite sure why ppl still have the need to brand another individual . All I can say is WOW .
