You know how much I love Melissa & Doug products.  Well there is a great giveaway going on right now over at The Budget Mommy.  She has signed up with Melissa & Doug to giveaway a full sized painting easel.  There is a dry erase and chalkboard side for two children to color or paint simultaneously (perfect for folks with twins).

What can I do with expired coupons?

Here's a great way to help our military!  Donate your expired coupons to be used by military families.  Commissaries and PXs overseas accept expired coupons up to 6 months after the expiration date.  Coups For Troops has lots more information about which coupons to send on their website.
I always have coupons that expire before I can use them.  Now I don't have to throw them away.  Instead, someone else can benefit from them!
If you want to send them your expired coupons, use the address below.  Coups For Troops only asks that you cut out your coupons.  You don't have to sort them or total them which makes it easy to donate. 

Coups For Troops
PO Box 147
Winnabow NC 28479

Coups For Troops has a giveaway going on right now too on their Facebook page.  They reached 1000 fans and are giving out a couponing kit with a binder, calculator, baseball card pages for your coupons, newspaper inserts, and lots of other great stuff.

What a fantastic way to help support our soldiers!

(Not) Etsy Sunday

Instead of window shopping on Etsy, this week I've been over looking at all the goodies to be had at Anthropologie.  I could never actually afford any of their things, but oh goodness, if I had all of the money in the world......
They sell beautiful vintage inspired clothes and fabulous handbags (drool).  But they also sell amazing home goods, too.  Of course that's what I found most appealing.
Imprinted Pallete Egg Caddy
Wide-Eyed Dishtowel
Sewing Basket Apron and they have a matching children's size!
Utensil Go Round Spinner  LOVE this
Frukost Dishtowel
Pure and Good Hand Duo
Tea & Crumpets Apron
Barista Dishtowel
Farmer's Egg Crate
Jitterbug Apron

The Babies Put Pudge in Puj Tub

I have loved our Puj Tub, but The Babies have outgrown it much faster than I expected.  So we are in the market for a new baby tub.  I need suggestions from experienced mommies.  

I don't like the huge plastic tubs that take up a lot of space, although, we rarely use the shower in our guest bathroom and could store the tub there.  Also, I have chronic lower back pain from several auto accidents, and I liked that the Puj Tub fit in the kitchen sink so I didn't have to bend. 

What kind of baby tub do you have?  Do you like it?  What don't you like about it?  Is it worth the money you spent on it?  Should I just hold out until they are sitting up on their own and put them in the tub without a baby tub?

Thankyouverymuch.
