Out in the Snow!

Most people here in the wonderful state of Colorado are complaining about the snow however, I was so excited to see it fall and quite a bit of it too. I couldn't wait to get Rex all dressed up in his snow pants and heavy coat and head out to see how much fun he would have. Last year he really didn't care for it much but this year I think, if yesterday was a sneak preview, that he is going to love it! I think not only my excitement to have fun in the snow with Rex but the fact that my husband works for a roofing company snow is a plus for me. It means that he gets to stay home all day with us and not actually have to work the whole time! I love winter! Here are some cute pictures from our 'Out in the Snow' experience.


He was so proud and excited to get in the snow. He couldn't stop smiling!


His favorite thing to do on anything that is half way soft is to free fall into it face first of course. So I guess snow of the frozen ground looked soft enough!


It must have not hurt because he's still smiling and this was his favorite thing to do while we were out in the snow.


I helped him make a snow angel but he fell back into it the wrong way before I could get a picture. He didn't really care about making one.


He soon discovered that snow taste good and started eating it. First he just starting sticking his face in it. Then we started having a snow ball fight (yes I started it with my 2 year old and the lucky duck through one right in my face) and then he decided that it was more fun to eat the snow balls than to throw them at Mommy. Thank goodness! With his arm and his aim I was in trouble. I won't be joining him for too many snow ball fights as he gets older. He will kick my butt! 

I'm so excited that winter is here and that we will hopefully have more snow filled fun days coming soon!

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 ...
