Money/Time Saving Ideas:

Formula
Before my daughter was born I did a lot of research on formulas.  I found
out that the company that makes ALL of the store brand formulas (Wyeth
Nutritionals) is the same company that invented formula as well as the
company that has made all of the advances in formula production (including
the addition of DHA/ARA).  The formula is a lot cheaper and I feel more
comfortable knowing that the formula I feed my daughter is made by the
creator of formula.
-- Lyssa from Rockwall, TX

Kids' Art
Instead of buying the rolls of paper to put down on your dining room table
for craft times, put down a fitted twin sheet!  I was trying to paper all
the time to save the table when it came time for finger painting, but then
my husband suggested an old fitted sheet.  It is great!  As soon as you are
done, you just pull it up and throw it in the laundry! -- Stephanie O'Connor
from Copley, OH

Homemade Felt Board
Cover a hard plastic 3-ring binder in flannel (a reused receiving
blanket is almost the perfect size). Cut out felt shapes to use in the
book. You can cut out simple triangles, squares, and circles, or
houses, cars, and people. You can also reuse light fleece clothing
instead of the felt. On the inside of the binder, put plastic sleeves
that fit in the 3-ring binders. Use one plastic sleeve for each
"category" of felt shapes. -- Julie from Erlanger, KY

Laura writes, "This photo is of Martina 3 1/2 & Mitchell 11 months.  I
couldn't pass this one up. There are probably only a few months of kissing
left as her brother is getting older and will soon be able to fight back."

What's Cookin':  Sopapilla Cheesecake

2 8 oz. bars of cream cheese (softened)
2 packages of refrigerated crescent rolls
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 stick butter (not margarine), melted
1 tablespoon cinnamon mixed with 1/2 cup sugar

Preheat oven to 350. Spray 9x13 pan. Unroll and press one package of
crescent rolls in bottom of pan. Pinch seams of crescent rolls together.
Place cream cheese, sugar and vanilla in a bowl. Beat with mixer for 1
minute or until smooth. Pour and smooth out in pan. Place 2nd package of
crescent rolls on top of cream cheese mixture. pinch seams together. Pour
melted butter on top. Sprinkle with all of the cinnamon/sugar mixture. Bake
for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely and refrigerate 3
hours or overnight.

This is a heavenly dessert. Some people eat it hot, but I think refrigerated
is much better. Give it a try. Let me know if you like it. I take this one
everywhere I have to bring a dessert, and everyone raves about it! Hope you
enjoy it!

Real Moms:  Money Saving Tips

Thrift stores!  They are a goldmine!  My daughter ONLY wears boutique and
better retail (Gymboree, Hanna, etc.) and it is mostly from thrift stores.
You have to look hard and often, but think of the money you save. -- Dawn,
37, from NC

My biggest money saving tip is to use cash for your groceries and normal
household items, such as tp, diapers and cleaners.  That way, when it is
gone, it's gone and you are more likely to try to stretch your dollar.  I
also buy a few items in bulk and I shop at our local discount/off brand
grocery store.  It is amazing how much I save there! -- Nicole, 25, from KS

These great hints came from our Real Mom Profiles. Keep 'em coming! To
