Back to School with Cookie's Kids

#momsguide,#Cbias

So, remember last week when I teased you guys with this post? We ended up shopping online at Cookie's Kids. I used the AWESOME #MomsGuide to help me pick out what we wanted.

After I got an idea of what we would be looking for, I let Mads go to town!

I helped her but, for the most part she picked out everything we purchased.  We sat down and went to the Cookie's Kids website and had a blast shopping!  We were a little overwhelmed with the site, their selection is AMAZING! But, once I got the hang of it and showed Mads what to click on, we were well on our way to a new wardrobe for Back to School.

I had $50 to spend and thought it would not get us far.  Boy was I WRONG!  The prices at Cookie's Kids are AMAZING!  I somehow ended up with a $30 credit on my account also, I still don't know where that came from but...I was excited it was there!  So now that I had $80 to spend, I was even MORE excited!

Would you like to see what all we got?

We purchased this CUTE Black Taffeta Skirt, this is going to be great for so many occasions! The shirt we already had and the shoes are also from Cookie's. One thing I LOVE about the skirt is it is adjustable! There is a little piece of elastic in the back with a button, like adjustable jeans.

This cute little set is no longer available.  It is an orange top, that Mads thinks Hanna Montana would wear, and it came with white leggings.

Mads LOVES this top! She would have gotten 10 of them, if I would have let her!  HA! You can still find it at Cookie's but in limited sizes.

I went back and forth about getting a jacket, but she LOVED it. You know, when it is 115 out you really aren't thinking jacket weather!  lol I am glad I got it though. The jacket is fully lined and the outside is some sort of fleece.  It is SO soft!

 Of course NO shopping trip is complete without a dress! She just HAD to have it. We used the leggings from the orange outfit above because it is just a bit short for this mama. It comes with a faux cami sewn in and the belt is also sewn on. I love that because I will not have to hunt for all of the pieces when she wants to wear it. Again, the shoes are also from Cookie's. I really like these shoes, they are very versatile. They are on the big side but, she will grow into them.

We also purchased a dress for little sister {in blue} and a pair of 7 seven jeans for Mads. The jeans are a bit big...and long...but she will grow into them. We usually get adjustable jeans because she is so tall and skinny that I have a hard time finding anything that fits. I can't wait for her to fit in the jeans, they are REALLY cute, they have rhinestones on all of the pockets. So girly and blingy!

I still need to pick up just a few supplies but, for the most part, we are all set to head Back to School! Mads is SO excited to show off all of her new clothes!

FROZEN Hot Chocolate

I am sure by now, most of you know that FROZEN the Movie is coming to theaters THIS WEEK (the 27th to be exact)! I am so excited!! My girls saw some of the FROZEN merchandise while we were at Walt Disney World and that is all they could talk about.....for days! It has been a rough school year for both of the girls so far. Mads is adjusting to being in the upper elementary, was dealing with a bully and gets super frustrated with math (even though she is really good at it). MG is adjusting to actually being in school, went through a time of having accidents at school and she just misses her mommy. To celebrate Mads good grades and MG going a month accident free, I decided to treat the girls with a few fun new toys and some hot chocolate. Once I heard that FROZEN merchandise was available at Walmart, I ran to stock up. While I was there, it hit me! I could have #Frozenfun with the hot chocolate and make FROZEN Hot chocolate! I just knew the girls would love it! I was k

Le Cellier - Chedder Cheese Soup Recipe Review

I first talked about this soup here .   I have to admit, was not real eager to try this soup.  I can not stand the taste of beer.  PERIOD!  It doesn't take much in a recipe for me to be able to taste it.  With that being said, the soup wasn't bad.  I would try it with ginger ale next time though. Before I tell you what I thought of the soup I need to be fair and tell you about some changes I made to the recipe. First, the recipe tells you to cook the bacon just to render out the fats, not to make crispy.  I did not render out enough of the fats and in fact next time, I would cook the bacon until it IS crispy.  I don't like limp bacon, I like my bacon extra crispy. Second, I TOTALLY forgot to cook down the onions and celery before adding the flour!  Ummmm......ooops! So my bacon was limp and my veggies were crispy!  HAHA! Next, I am not on a budget to be able to purchase "Aged White Cheddar" so good ol Yellow Sharp Cheddar it was! I did NOT add one tablespoo

Strawberries and Cream Instant Oatmeal | Recipe

I don't know about you but, we go through oatmeal like that is the only thing to eat on this planet!   Seriously a TON! My youngest would eat it for every meal and snack....every day....if I let her. Yes, the little packs can be cheap (if you can find a coupon and get them on sale) but it still adds up.  I used things I already had on hand so there was no extra cost to make this.  FREE is ALWAYS good!   I tried before to make little packets to keep on hand but that was a complete fail.  I have since reworked the recipe and am happy with the results.  I decided to just keep the oatmeal in a glass container this time and scoop out what we need, when we need it.  You can also make this into packets by just scooping the desired amount into zip-top bags. {Strawberries & Cream Instant Oatmeal}   12 Servings 6 Cups Quick Cook Oats 1 1/2 Cups Oat Powder 2 Cups Powdered Milk 1 - 1 1/2 Cup Sugar 1 Cup Freeze Dried Strawberries Directions f
