I learned a valuable lesson today. Something that I already knew, but apparently wasn’t practicing very well – plan ahead.

We’d planned to have Elliott potty trained by now, so I haven’t been stockpiling diapers in his size for awhile. We were down to our last box 2 weeks ago, but thought for sure we wouldn’t need anymore.

It turns out we do. He’s still not ready, and I am not going to force him.

So – I ordered diapers from Amazon last week. Unfortunately, they still aren’t here. We’re all out, so today I had to buy some. At full price!

To make matters worse, I forgot to clip a coupon for them.

Ouch!
