Tommy will tell you all I have been couponing like crazy.... I love it! It has become a big game to me. I love going to the store and seeing how much stuff I can get for the least amount of money! Check out my last CVS trip! Only spent $4.04 out of pocket!!! WHOA!!!

(3 bottles of Pantene Shampoo, 2 Nivea Body Washes, 2 Gillette Mens Body Wash, 1 Dove Mens body wash, 1 bottle of Listerine Mouth Wash and I tube of Colgate toothpaste)

Our Snow Day!

Whoa! Can you believe it! It snowed in Charleston.... I love snow probably just as much as your kids do... At first Gracie didn't quite know what to think but she quickly let us know she loved it too!

The kids and I waiting for snow to fall!!!

Look Mom I have to tell dad how to make a snowman!

My glamour queen!

(Gracie calls Adam "Uncle Apple" we haven't figured out why yet but he dosen't seem to mind)

New Addition to the Martin Family

We have a new addition to our family. Gracie got a FISH! Tommy has been wanting a big fish tank with lots of fish in it because he thinks Gracie will really like it. But mommy decided to try a cheap $1.99 fish first before we buy a big fish tank with lots of expensive fish in it. Gracie has named her Abby. Do ask me why!! I think it has to do with Abby on the Elmo show. We will see how long "Abby" last :)

6 Months

I really can't believe that Thomas is 6 months old already! Before I know it he will be one and Gracie will be two! Oh Wow! Just saying that outloud makes me want to cry. My babies are growing too fast. Lately Gracie has begun talking up a storm and trying to repeat everything we say. She is repeating names of people now and it sounds so clear. I love it we can understand her so much better now :) And Thomas still eating like a wild man. All that boy wants to do is eat, smile, sleep! It is great I must admit! His newest trick is sitting up by himself now. He still gets excited and flips over or falls to the side but he is doing much better. Here are a few updated pictures of the two Martin kiddos!

Snaggle Tooth

So I know you are not supposed to compare your kids but when it comes to Gracie and Thomas they are very different! Thomas got his first two teeth this week and you would never have known it unless you looked in his mouth. Gracie on the other hand would get a diaper rash, fever, runny nose and just feel rotten. I can only hope that Thomas is this way with all of his teeth :)
