Holy Crap!

I know that's what you were thinking when you saw a new blog entry. Well - to my four faithful followers (who have now dwindled down to just my brother) - I apologize.

So let's see...what's new in the Peske house. Well...we had another baby.

Evan is seven months old and loves his giraffe, Miss Sophie Boo-yah (pictured left), eating and his big brother.








Speaking of his big brother. He has become sort of a comedian.

For example, a couple nights ago Rob put a humidifier in Ben's room and told him it would help with his stuffy nose and cough. After praying, Rob asked Ben if he would like to ask for Jesus to heal him. Ben replied, "No. I'll just let the machine do it."

I guess it's good we have this kid in Sunday school.

Best. Sleepover. Ever. And I have pictures to prove it.

I wish blogger would be more picture posting friendly. (sigh) I'm giving up. You'll just have to cope with the big spaces...the pictures are still cute though.

Very. First. Sleepover.

That's right. Ben is having his very first sleepover tonight with Miles...on a weeknight! Am I like the coolest mom ever?!

(Actually, Jim and Aleycia's employers should get some credit for scheduling them in such a way that makes all this fun possible.)

I'm expecting a lot of wrestling and playdoh, some cookie eating and a tantrum when Ben finds out Miles won't actually sleep in his bed with him.


Photos tomorrow.

Save megabucks on a Leapfrog Tag system

This is how I bought the Leapfrog Tag Jr. (ages 2-4) system and four additional books (the system also comes with one) for $17.96.

Regular price I would have paid $78.95.

http://www.leapfrog.com/etc/medialib/leapfrog/coupons/additional_coupons.Par.63631.File.tmp/10%20off%20Print%20Coupon%20For%20Tag.pdf

and print off the $10 off Tag coupon on this Target site. You might have to search for it.

Use the $10 off manufacturer coupon and Target coupon and combine that with the Leapfrog sale and you'll get the Tag Jr. for $8.99. Make sure you use the $10 manufacturer coupon even if it looks like it's for the regular Leapfrog system.

TAG JR. BOOKS!
For the best deal on books, start by going to: http://toysrus.shoplocal.com/ToysRus/default.aspx?action=entryflash&promotioncode=ToysRus-091101&DisplayPageNumber=1 and on page 14-15 you'll find the Tag Jr. books. Click on them to print out the reduced price and effective dates to take to Target or Wal-Mart to have them price match the books at $7.99.

Then, print off the manufacturer coupon (http://www.leapfrog.com/etc/medialib/leapfrog/coupons/additional_coupons.Par.63631.File.tmp/10%20off%20Print%20Coupon%20For%20Tag.pdf ) so you have one for each book you want. Use the $5 off manufacturer coupon for each book to bring the price down to $2.99!

GET A FREE BOOK
You also get a free ABC book here http://www.leapfrog.com/en/freebook/splash.html when you register for the leapfrog program.

If Target gives you issue with the Target coupon, tell them other people have used it for the Tag Jr. They should let you use it. When I went in they didn't bat an eye.

Also, these coupons will also work for the regular Leapfrog Tag system (ages 4-8) if you need to stock up on gifts. The system is a little more expensive than the Jr., but it's still a great price.

This is confusing so if you have questions, just ask!

"I gotta feelin'..."

Ben loves to listen to the Black Eye Peas before he goes to bed for the night. Sort of gets him all pumped up to sleep through the night.

I love how he acts all upset that he's being laughed at, but not really. I think he may have a performer's heart.

Want to know what we're doing tonight? We're working on Silent Night. Who knows...maybe Grandpa Bubba will program him at church this Christmas.
