I had to turn my air conditioning on.
I am not looking forward to next months power bill. I've been loving how low they are. Oh well, at least the gas bill will go down.
I'm curious though, what do you keep your A/C at?

Thanks Jessica!!
Blog hopping pays off :). Holly's neighbor, Jessica, who is a darling, sweet friend, read my blog and happens to have an extra phone collecting dust. Now I can stop wondering if Michael is on his way home from work, or if something happened while at work.
And we'll have no more "incidents" like yesterday. I laid Aubrie down for bed, grabbed a monitor (which I haven't used in MONTHS) threw some batteries in it, and ran across the street to get Hailey from the neighbors house. Well I could hear Aubs fine (she was asleep anyway) so I turned the monitor down to eliminate the loud static while chatting for a few short minutes with my neighbor. I turned the monitor up every few minutes and even ran across the street 2 times to make SURE she was asleep still. Well I was there for 20 minutes (I know I know, I'm an awful mom). I get a call on my cell phone from Michaels S.O.R.T phone, which he is only supposed to use in emergencies. Well he deemed this an emergency because he came home, closed the garage, walked into what he thought was an empty house, called out my name, the girls names, etc. Went into Aubs room to find her asleep. Confused and sort of worried, he called me. I told him I had a monitor and he laughed and said, yeah a lot of good that did since you NEVER heard me walk into our house! Whoops! He said next time he's gonna load Aubs up and leave, just to scare the bageezies outa me. Soooo, I have learned my lesson, and in the future I'll leave the monitor turned up, or watch the lights better, and I will lock all the doors if I am leaving my child for the shortest time. BUT it will still be nice to have a heads up phone call from him, so I know he is on his way.
So yes, now you all know that I am not nearly as perfect as you once thought ;).
THANKS AGAIN JESSICA!

Albertons NW Region Deals
I have had a few requests for sharing my deals. So as they come I will post them if I feel they are worthy enough :).
So this one if for people in Utah, Colorado, Washington, Idaho and Oregon. Albertsons right now has their All Free & Clear Laundry Detergent on sale 5 for 15. When you buy 5 it takes off 5 dollars, so 5 for 10. Two dollars a bottle is pretty good. BUT there is a 1 dollar off coupon HERE making it a dollar a piece. This normally sells for 4-5 dollars. Today I bought 15, paid a little over 15 dollars and will be able to do 480 loads. 3.2 cents a load. Generally when you print coupons online you can only print 2 but this website let me print as many as I wanted. I just kept going back and it starting the print again.
So those of you in this region, stock up! This should last quite some time! Does laundry soap expire??

Aubrie decided
to throw Michael's cell phone in the toilet.
It's been one of those weeks.
If anyone has an old Verizon phone, I'd love you forever. I'll pay for it. We don't get upgrades until August.
Fabulous. Week.

Things we're into...
I just feel like blogging about our most recent interests...
AUBRIE-
Her interests have not wavered. She is still extremely into MOM. Fun...
She also loves the park now a days. Swings and slides are her favorite!
HAILEY-
She loves jumping on her new "jumperine" we bought her. She thinks its so much fun to put all her dolls or animals (or sister) on it and jump around!
Another thing she is into lately, is wearing Aubs clothes. Every morning she goes to Aubrie's closest and puts on her clothes, she insists on wearing them. She's a pretty petite little girl and Aubrie's clothes are 18 months so they fit fine, but it's just funny.
Just like Aubs, she loves the park too. The other day when we were getting ready to go, I was loading Aubrie in and told her to go tell dad we were ready and lets go. So she proceeds to go into our room, where he was on the computer, and screamed at the TOP of her lungs, DAAAAAAD GET IN THE CAR RIGHT NOOOOOOOOW! She's never been so demanding, it was kind of funny!
Michael loves working out! He has these push up bars that he uses all the time and loves! He can crank out over 300 push ups in one sitting. Crazy guy!
They recently came out with a product called The Perfect Pull Up, that he has been eying. Maybe I'll have to get him it for Fathers day. 
He's also into work, as usual. He got Employee of the Month for April. We're really proud of him!
SABRINA-
Hmm, I have a lot of interests right now. I've been making bows like CRAZY. Mostly clips, and some bows. Here is Aubrie sporting one of my clippies!
I also am enjoying the Bachelor this season. I wanted to boycott it after last season where the idiot sent both girls home. But this season has been good. My favorite is Shayne. At first I didn't like her because she seemed snotty and high maintenance. But she actually seems very real. And yes, she is high maintenance, but she knows it and is proud of it! I'm excited for the season finale on Monday.
NBA playoff have been fun too. I am a Phoenix Sun fan, by default (lived there), plus I love their players. But my next favorite team is the San Antonio Spurs. And since they knocked the Suns out, I am rooting for them. Their last two games they got creamed, but tonight they played AMAZING. Love it! And no, I don't only watch basketball because I have a crush on Raja Bell and Tony Parker :).
My last obsession... ur, interest... is bargain shopping. Lol, I wont get into this, Lets just say that for this following picture, I paid 38 dollars total, I have 80 on a walgreens gift card now and 85 dollars in coupons towards my next purchase (that I will eventually put on a gift card). So they paid me over 125 dollars to take this out of their store.
27 toothpastes
12 razors (one in my shower)
7 candy bars
8 popcorns
82 covergirl items
12 zantacs
5 body washes
Will I use all this? Probably not, but how can I resist when they are PAYING ME to take it. I also used those coupons they gave me to get cereal at albertsons, I have 20 boxes and paid 3 dollars. Can't beat that!
