Family Friday!

Our family day at the Butterfly Pavilion...our second try! We first tried to go on Saturday night but they close at 4:15pm and we arrived at 4:20pm. So we chose to go on Sunday morning instead. Rex was fascinated with all the bugs and with Rosie. Mommy is terrified of Rosie and last time we were there I didn't know Rosie was there and when I saw her I ran out of the room (no not screaming, just fast)! So of course I have to have a boy that wants to hold her so I recruited Popa to help out and I mustard all the courage I had to stay there and take pictures.


 So here is Rex 'holding' Rosie!


 Here's all the kids looking at the other bugs they have and spiders. Yuk! I hate this room!


Just some cute pictures of a butterfly and a flower!

She was terrified of all the butterflies and cried and freaked out the whole time. I finally was tired of it so I made her sit in the stroller that meant more crying and screaming but then she fell asleep and all was good. (Baby J)


CiCi's Pizza for lunch! Ummm...Mac & Cheese Pizza! They had a balloon man there and Rex got a snack and thought it was so much fun. It lasted just the day before it was popped and had to be put in the trash.

Playing with the balloons. Baby J got a flower balloon and they played like this the whole time at the restaurant and then at home again. Crazy Kiddos!

We had such a good time taking all the kids around for the weekend. I was really tired after all of our activities but it was worth it. Rex enjoys spending time with his cousins.

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 ...
