Hi, it's Crystal Williams, I need help with finding a sitter for Wednesday and Thursday from 6 pm to 8:30 pm. Possibly even a sitter for the boys on Tuesdays, from 4:30 to 6:30. Dinner will already be made. You just have to sit and watch the kids!

Thanks,
Crystal Williams

Free Baby Products

I already posted this on my blog and on the Mother's Lounge. So if you read those too, sorry for way too much info:

A lady in our ward (Eva Jean) called me today saying that her daughter is getting rid of some baby things that she has and wanted to know if I wanted any of them. She said everything is in great condition and not hugely used. I claimed the double stroller that she offered - we were going to be buying one soon. But we don't need any of the other things. So here's the list:

A car seat - (I don't know which kind or what the limits are. Talk to Eva Jean about that.) She said it's only slightly used and in great condition.

A play mat thing

A swing.

That's all I can remember. I think that was it. So let me know if you need any of these things, or let Eva Jean know directly. Otherwise they are going to DI. Thanks!

Ready to Learn KBYU

Hello, all you moms out there who like to run. I thought I'd let you know about a 5k race this Saturday morning in Provo. The race starts at 9:00 am at Rotary Park (1460 N. 1500 W. in Provo). It costs $10, and all of the proceeds are going to the Nie Recovery Fund.

The Nie Recovery Fund is for Stephanie and Christian Nielson who were badly injured in a small-plane crash in August. Stephanie is a Provo native, and I am a close friend to one of her sisters. Stephanie is still in a chemical-induced coma as she undergoes skin grafts, and her husband is now going through physical therapy. The race is a great opportunity to doing something good for our bodies while at the same time helping out an awesome family in need.

Go to 5kfornie.blogspot.com to find out more details on the race, and go to blog.cjanerun.com for more information about how to help the Neilsons.

Thanks,
Anna Brown

Playgroup Tuesday

Don't forget, playgroup at the Pumpkin Patch is TUESDAY this week because of UEA. See you there!

Sunflower Farmers Market

This new grocery store just opened not too long ago. I went today to check it out and it is a very nice store. I was very impressed with their produce. It was very clean, probably due to the fact that it is brand new. As I was leaving the store I noticed a poster near the entrance and they have craft time for the kids every Tuesday (and I think they are free)!!

Savvy Shopper

After getting so excited about saving grocery money, I thought others might be interested in this activity. Tuesday, September 30th there is a class at Orem Macey's about how to be a savvy shopper and save with coupons. I think I ought to go. Just thought I'd let you all know.
