Today's task in the making

Today I'm off to the nail salon (if Money ever gets up). It is my day to enjoy some Mommy free time :) I love spending time with Money but it is also nice to be able to get away for a little bit and enjoy some quiet time with just myself (and the nail tech). I'm super excited to go but now I just have decide on the color. Ugh! The choices. I was thinking green because of St. Patrick's day but I'm not sure I want green finger nails for a full month. I guess I could do the normal french tip because white is part of St. Patrick's day too but I'm not sure that I want to go that boring. I guess I will just have to get there and ask Bob what he thinks.
After these great decisions are made it's time for Monkey and I to hit the grocery store together so we can finally get some food in this house. It should be interesting to see what we can find that he will eat. That kid is so picky for me. I can't get him to eat veggies, he use to love pasta so I could sneak it in and now he won't eat that either. He sometimes eat meat but would rather just have bread and crackers. The thing is he loves salad and veggies at Grandma and Popa's house. He eats almost anything there. Plus he will eat veggie from anyone but me. I tried this experiment once when family was around and I would offer him a carrot and he wouldn't take and just tell me "No." I would then hand that carrot to someone else and they would offer it to Monkey and he would take it and eat it. He's such a stinker! So not sure how I'm going to be creative and get him to eat food for me but I guess I will figure it out. Now I guess I better get the cookbook out and figure out what freezer meals I will be making later this week (if I have time for that!)

Happy Father's Day!

Today is father's day and most people are getting together and celebrating with family. Dads, grandpas and uncles all celebrating together the joys of being a father. Maybe getting a chance to relax and enjoy just sitting around watching the kids play and being surrounded with family. That's what father's day has always looked like for us. We would always gather at my parents house. First, with my grandparents when I was growing up for dinner and a day of enjoying being together. Then as I grew older my sister and I would make sure to spend the day with our dad. Then we got married and had kids of our own and the tradition continued. We would bring all the kids and enjoy BBQing at my parents house enjoying time together. This year things are different.We can't just jump in the car and head over for a BBQ. We can't sit around on the couch or on the patio talking and laughing together. This year we are 12 hours away from where I've always been for father...

Week #2 on THM

Well it's officially the end of week 2 on Trim Healthy Mama! I have tried some more new recipes from the book and from pinterest and I'm having so much fun with it. I also order some xylitol online to save money. I didn't realize how much sweetener I would be using but when you can make sweets for any meal or snack through out the day you can use quite a bit. Favorite Meals this week E pancakes from the book! Yum! I added in frozen berries to them while cooking and they were great and the boys loved them too. They got to have the added whipped cream or syrup on theirs. Fat Stripping Frappa! OMGOSH! This is going to be my go to summer morning drink! I can see myself making one of these up first thing in the morning to get my day going and then enjoying a yummy breakfast 3 hours later. Soon as warm weather hits Hubby's schedule will be packed full daily so my mornings will start early, like 5am early! So having a breakfast at 8:30 will be perfect timing! Cheese ...
