food, shoes, shopping, and clothes

This week my husband has made the most awesome meals. We went out Monday night, and that was nice. Tuesday night he made a pasta with fresh veggies and shrimp, it was perfect. Wednesday night he made one of my favorites, chicken noodle soup. Last night he tried his hand at making a Greek pasta dish, that was amazing!!!

Oh so very good, yum!!! Just thinking about these meals again makes me smile!

I asked Girl Clean's mom about her shoe size. I have been collecting size 11 shoes for fall. I realized after her mom responded with "I think she's going to be a 10 a while longer". That she did not actually change shoe sizes until January of last year. So girlfriend has some really cute shoes ready to go for when she does move up a size.

I had a 20% off piperlime coupon and piperlime is part of Old Navy, Gap, and Banana Republic, translation, Piperlime takes my ON credit card... I've actually purchased several pairs of shoes for the girl off this site. They have Stride Rite, and a lot of other really great quality brands.

What I found out this morning, when I went back to the site, is that you can go into any of the websites, place items in your bag and when you check out you pay for them all at the same time. ON has some really cute pink sparkly ballet flats on sale right now. I had placed those in my shopping bag yesterday. I had also placed a pair of tennis shoes and casual shoes in the bag from piperlime. I knew I had a coupon so I waited until this morning when I had my coupon to place the order. I was thrilled to purchase all the shoes at the same time and my grand total with the coupon was $57. These shoes will carry her through until she outgrows them and I did not spend an outrageous amount of money, GO ME!!!!

My friend Vada told me I'm going to give the child a shoe addiction. I said that it's too late. She had that long before me. She has always loved shoes from the time she was old enough to know what shoes were.

This afternoon I will pick Girl Clean up from Amy. Then we'll hang out tonight. Tomorrow morning is my 10K race so Mr. Clean has the responsibility of getting Girl Clean ready for ballet. I'll have everything laid out but I don't know that he's ever had to put tights on her before. Hopefully this goes OK.

I'll leave as soon as I finish my race to get home so that I can get Girl Clean ready. Amy's parent's 50th anniversary party is this weekend. I'm going to get Audra dressed and take her to the party so that Amy can focus on the party and what she has to do.

Last night Mr. Clean had a bid at a potential clients which left me home for a little bit. I was able to organize my closet and watch a few episodes of Say Yes to the Dress. Last weekend I discovered that this was on netflix. I was so excited!!! Girl Clean sat with me and watched the pretty dresses. Mr. Clean may have said don't suck her into your world. I told him too late!

Happy Friday!!!
