These were taken at Christmas time in Utah! FREEZING!!!

NEW COUCHES!

Hurray for new furniture! I have been a major Craig's Lister lately. I sold my old table and chairs and both my old couches and then bought new couches and new table and chairs. I also bought this material and made my pillows and covered my chair. I love the material! I can't wait to paint my walls to match. It's amazing what a little pick me up will do.

And so the umberalla fettish(or should I say obsession) continues!



So, today at Target Isaac and I are looking at the toys and what does he find......? An umbrella ! And not just any umbrella, but an umbrella with a bird on the end! (Just like Mary Poppins, for those of you who were wondering.) Can I just say that he was in heaven! Now he carries both of them around everywhere! You gotta love 2 year olds!
Let the messy, orange baby phase begin!!!!!

I am just messing with a new look for my blog. So it might change from time to time.
Birthday/Valentines Day Flowers from my sweetheart! Arent' they beautiful?!!
Let's Go Fly A Kite!


A couple of weeks ago the only windy day came on a Sunday and so John helped Isaac fly his first kite. He loved it, but it was freezing!
Precious Moment!


I came in to the room to see this. It is moments like these that make it all worth it. If you could hear what was happening you would hear Isaac in his highest, sweetest voice saying " Hiiiiiieeee Easton Bubba! Do you want your binky? Yeah! Yeah!" And Easton just sits ther smiling and laughing!
Bloody Lip!

Isaac ran to the office at our apartment complex and biffed on his way back and slammed his face into the side walk! OUCH!
My Mohawk Boys!


Isaac took this one!

Sorry now new posts. I have been doing a lot of other things. One being changing my eating habits back to the old, pre- pregnant me. I have some new favorite healthy meals and snacks.

BREAKFAST:
Steel Cut Oats: They are the best oats for you and they are more crunchy like cracked wheat, not so mushy like regular oatmeal. After I cook it I put fruit ( berries, grapes, apples which I cook in with the oatmeal, it gives it such a good sweet apple flavor), nuts(any kind), and to sweeten it I use my new favorite way to sweeten: hazelnut Creamer. It only has 5 grams of sugar in 1 Tablespoon and only 45 calories. And it adds the yummiest flavor. And then I add milk of course. Something else I have read a lot about lately is coconut oil (raw and natural). It is a really good fat that aids in metabolism. So I add 1T of that and it also adds a really good flavor. Isaac and I eat this almost every morning.

Lunch:
I saute mushrooms and onions with a tiny bit of olive oil and some salt and pepper and then I put them on my sandwich. What ever kind or I eat it as a side with a yummy salad. So Good!!!!

Dinner:
I again saute onions and mushrooms with lots of veggies and chicken and then eat it with brown rice or I crack a couple of eggs in with it and then it's more filling.

Dessert:
Sugar Free fat free vanilla pudding.... I eat it warm with berries or nuts or semi sweet chocolate chips in it! So good! I also eat the chocolate kind with a little whipped cream and the pistachio or cream cheese kind!

I feel so good. I have such a testimony of healthy eating and what we put in our bodies. I eat tons of fruits and veggies and only whole grains and I have no more headaches and never feel nauseous and night which I used to have both of! I don't just eat to eat. I think about why I am eating and eat only because I am hungry. I have lost 8 lbs and 2 inches! Healthy food=happy life!
