Twenty One Months

 I totally forgot to take Sierra's picture this month, and then the next day, when I did remember, Dave had the camera.  So all we have is a blurry cell phone picture for this month.
 
-Not sure on weight and height, but she is notably taller than Audrey now.
-Had no doctor's appointments this month!
-Doesn't need Miralax anymore!
- Loves juice, bagels, graham crackers, spaghetti, and macaroni and cheese.  Hates all fruits and vegetables.  Sigh.
 -Is getting too tall for all her 18 month clothes, and I've had to pull out the 24 month and 2T stuff.
-Wears a size 4 diaper.
-Naps once a day around 1:00.  Goes to bed at 8 and sleeps until about 9.
-Still crawls as her primary means of locomotion, but is walking more each day.  Or should I say, staggers around like a drunk person more each day.
-Thinks Caleb is hilarious.
-Doing well in her weekly physical therapy.
  -Still loves Elmo!
-Still has no frequently used, recognizable words.although she does occasionally say sounds that almost seem to count as words.  She makes her wishes known, though!
-Keeps us busy, but we can't imagine life without our sweet Sierra!

Teaching Time

Jordanna is learning how to spell her name.
Sierra loves coloring. And eating crayons.  And throwing them on the floor.
Jordanna and Alexa made rainbows for our study of Noah.

Spent $1.61 For All Of This

It's been a long time since I've done a coupon post on the blog.  I still use coupons regularly.  I don't go to as many stores as I used to, but I do still get things for cheap or free from time to time.  Last week, I got free Fuze 2 liters of tea and free margarine and some really cheap ketchup.  However, the amazing deals are fewer and farther between lately.  There's a new coupon app out, though, called Ibotta.  To get the Ibotta deals, you answer some questions or watch a video or post to Facebook, then you shop, then you upload your receipt, and then you get cash which you can deposit to your paypal account.  I spent $51.61 on everything in the picture above (12 rolls of paper towels, 24 rolls of toilet paper, three boxes of Kleenex, 1 pack of diapers, 3 packs of wipes, 2 packs of pads, dish soap, and hand soap) and then I got $50 deposited from Ibotta.  So $1.61 for everything in the picture. That's my kind of deal!
