Savings, Spit up, and Starting to get bored!!!

Let me start with Savings and work my way down.
Last night the hubs and I took Cooper to the mall. I used to LOVE to go shopping but motherhood has caused me to be an at home type of person so much more. Don't get me wrong, I still love to shop. I get some sort of rush and happiness out of getting something new. It makes me feel good. But spending time with my husband and son in the evenings and weekends brings me even more happiness. Needless to say, I don't shop to much anymore.
We got to the mall and walked in. I have a few gift cards with $15.00-20.00 on them from Christmas time leftover. We first went to Macy's were I found some really pretty yellow paisley sheets 350 thread count (not the very best but not horrible).
We just threw away 2 sets of our favorite sheets we got for our wedding almost 7 years ago. So we are in need of some more sheets. Anyways, the sign showed them on sale for $29.99. I was soooo excited! I of course bought them. When I went to check out they tried to tell me they weren't supposed to be that price, that someone had changed the sign. They were actually $60.00 sheets, but they gave them to me for the $29.99 because it wasn't my fault someone had changed the price. SCORE!!! I ended up paying $10.00 with my gift card.
I attached a pic of my purple room, yes I said purple. My husband is such a great guy he let me paint our room eggplant with white woodwork. I love it. We have lots of sort of a pale mustard yellow and white in there and it looks great with the purple. We have red and burnt orange sheets too, they look great with the room color as well. Anyways so here are our new sheets! I love them. Don't worry I didn't actually put the sheets on the bed, I just made it look like I did. I still need to wash them, but I wanted to share them with you guys so I did a fake out. But you get the idea. Thats why you can see the fold creases on the pillows, haha.
While at the mall we also got stopped often with people wanting to see our sweet little Cooper. He is quite the crowd stopper and he doesn't have a problem with smiling a beaming smile to each and every person that passes us either. I don't mind people saying "ooh, aah, he's so cute". But I just don't want anyone touching and you know they try.
We also went to the Gap and got Cooper a new onesy. Super cute, brown and orange stripes. It will look great on him. I only had to pay $6.00 because I had a gift card for the Gap also.
Next we stopped by forever 21. I bought myself a new shirt too. It is cream colored with navy thin stripes. I really like it. I only had to pay $7.00 there because of yet another gift card. YAY ME! We did such a good job. I think we left paying only a little over $20.00 total the entire trip. I was very excited and proud of this mall trip.

Moving on to the spit up. My poor little Cooper as some of you may know has acid reflux really bad. We were able to find some meds that work really good for him. But sometimes when the bottle gets really close to being empty the meds don't really work very well anymore. Its a compounded med.
So the past few days Cooper has really been starting to spit up again. Nothing too terrible but definitely more than he should be. Then this morning we had an all out blow out!!! He wasn't sleeping well which should have been my first indication that his reflux was acting up really bad today. He had an all out crazy bad projectile spit up all over himself and his clean cute clothes this morning, Right into his car seat which we had just put him in because we were both leaving to head out to go to work. My poor baby just sat there covered from head to toe in spit up and cereal. It was so sad, but yet I knew he wasn't hurting because he managed to look up at me and smile a huge cutey pie smile through the yucky spit up covered face. I cleaned him up dressed him nice again and off he went to Mimi's. We are getting his meds refilled right now. I hate that he is having such a problem with the reflux when he doesn't get enough meds. But they really work when they are strong enough. I'm just glad it hasn't burned his throat yet from spitting up to much because then he cries out of pain and its so sad. We will get him all fixed up before that happens.

Onto my last subject. Wow this is such a long post. Sorry ladies :)
TV shows! I'm really getting bored with the fact that so many of my favorites are on a hiatus of some sort. Gossip Girl, 90210, Americas next top Model, all the MTV shows. Like the Hills which is no longer on (I'm so sad, I loved to see all the fashion). Or the City on mtv. I don't have enough to watch when I just want to sit back and relax after Cooper falls asleep.
Right now I am watching the bachelor, One Tree Hill, Greys and Private Practice, Desperate housewives, and Brothers and sisters. I know there are so many other good shows out there. I just don't like to start watching later in the season. So if there are any other good shows you know I would like please let me know. Next year I will definitely watch them.


And last but not least, what would one of my posts be without pictures of my sweet and tiny~ Here he is from the past week. After a bath, playing, and wearing his sporty car shirt and Adidas jogging pants courtesy of my friend Elizabeth.
