Nanny to Mommy

Trying to find a funny image to put here for the reason I have been having sporadic and chaotic, sleep-deprived postings on here and social media. I typed funny caffeine babies in to Google and the gem below is what popped up. Was this a serious ad? When you link-up, please feel free to share your thoughts on this.

The Most Important Rule
Have Fun!

Happy Hopping! :)

We went to Zoo Atlanta with my dear friend her daughter B, ya know the girl I watch?
We had a BLAST! We got to see the pandas up close, so close one of them sniffed my hand when I put it up to the glass, how cool is that? SweetPea also enjoyed the petting zoo part, this is the first time she wasn't scared. When I first gave her the brush, she tried to brush her own hair. She was so confused why I was handing her a gross brush, so she was timid about it, but still almost brushed her own hair. Then when I told her it was for the animals, she was all over it.

Then we went to Ikea for the first time. That place is awesome! I wish I knew they had free kids meals on Tuesday, though. They had so much fun playing on the inexpensive furniture. ;)

The of course, SweetPea was pooped at the end of the long day and feel asleep before we barely left my friend's house.

What is it?
Only TODAY and March 15th, you will receive three random digital, load-to-card coupons for additional in-store savings. You must have a Kroger.com account with store card and sign in to get the coupons.

Why this promo is awesome:
You get to pick your deal and don't have to worry about clipping or printing anything because you just add it to your store card. The coupons are random, everyone will be shown 3 deals and can choose the one they want to use!

Here are some deals that have been made available:

Any thing FREE is awesome! And you KNOW I'm going to grab some more Tropicana! Remember everyone's deal is different, so once you load your e-coupons, come back here and let me know what deal you got!
