Home Just in Time

I'm back home in Colorado! I was suppose to come back on Friday but weather made it so I had to head back earlier than planned. And I'm back just in time for Valentine's day...except we don't celebrate it really so it's not that big of deal.

Hubby's mom is going much better. She is out of the ICU now for 3 days and has started physical therapy. She's starting the long recovery to get herself able to move into a rehab center and then to an assistant living home hopefully. Our prayers are that she can be able to go to my sister in laws wedding in April when we will be heading back out to OK again.

Stopping my life for 13 days has made my to do list that was already a mile long even longer and needed to be completed in a faster manner than before. Why you ask? Well because I have a little boy that has figured out how to move around and will be crawling probably before the months end! Yes crawling already! I'm ready and so not ready all at the same time.

So even though I was in the car from about 11 am to midnight I'm up and doing laundry, cleaning and organizing to hopefully get things accomplished quickly.

Now I just need to find time to get a nap here and there so I don't just crash after a day or two of moving because my schedule does not slow down at all. We have plans everyday this weekend and then 4 days next week. I can skip one or two next week if I need to but life doesn't stop just because you were gone for 13 days.

Thank you for all your prayers!

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...

Grab the button, link up, follow along or just read! It's up to you! <center><a href="http://www.theheartofahomemaker.blogspot.com/"><img border="0" src="http://i1219.photobucket.com/albums/dd424/Kari_Snellbaker/BLOG-thankful-1.jpg"/></a></center>

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 ...
