I LOVE new pens. Especially at the hospital because I can never find mine! So I figured I got a bunch of pens and pencils for less that what one pkg of paper at Wal-mart would cost... and now I have lots of paper to print more coupons on!

Then we ventured to Gap!

I got Hudson some more fall stuff... they are running an extra 40% off of all kids sale stuff, which is AWESOME!

Khaki roll ups: Reg. $30, I paid $7.78

Jeans: Reg. $30, I paid $8.39

Jeans: Reg. $30, I paid $10.79
