TAT: How Has Life Changed?

How has life changed since I had a baby? 


How hasn't it! People always say that life is never the same after a baby is born and I have to agree. So here are some things that have changed in our family.
  • I use to work now I stay home
  • I use to love playing with other peoples kids and baby's but now I just want to enjoy my time with my son.
  • I still love teaching (previous job) but now love it even more because I see what my child is learning.
  • My hubby and I are more cautious about how we talk to each other so we can set a good example for our children on what marriage should be.
  • My whole circle of friends. Now I'm friends with other mom's that stay home and have kids my son's age so they can all play together.
  • TV doesn't run our household. We spend time outside enjoying discovering new things to do.
  • Our livingroom floor is always coated with a layer of toys. I swear even after we clean up it only takes a few minutes for all the toys to reappear.
I love my family! I wouldn't change it for anything. I can't wait until Pilot gets here and we get to learn how to expand our family and I get to see him grow just as I am with Rex. I would take this life with kids any day over going to work and teach other people's kids all day.

  1. Staying home to raise my kiddos has been, by far, the best decision I've ever made. It hasn't always been easy on our pocket book, but I wouldn't trade the opportunity for anything in the world. We're a no TV family too:) Great post!

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 ...
