I’ve been a busy, busy lady this week! In fact, my schedule is pretty much crazy the rest of the week. Sigh. I’m just going to take it one day at a time. First off, these two cuties are in swimming lessons every morning this week… They’ve been having a ball and it’s been fun to watch their progress in swimming. My ten year old is also in swimming lessons Tuesday and Thursday evenings for the next three weeks. Yes, I’ve pretty much been living at the Rec Center. We’ve also been going to the Rec Center on Saturdays for Continue Reading…
Lots of Produce, Yummy Food and Running While Pregnant
It’s Friday once again! Woo hoo. I hope y’all have some fun things planned for this evening.

It was only 5 bucks for Continue Reading…
Baby News and my Healthy Eating and Exercise Plan

Soooo, yesterday morning I made two cakes… They were identical on the outside, but one was BLUE and the other was PINK on the inside. Kev and I went to the ultrasound in the afternoon. We saw our darling little baby… The technician quickly told us we were going Continue Reading…

Fun Stuff, Slow Cooker Chicken Stew and Homemade Onion Soup Mix
Happy Friday everyone!! We’ve had the most beautiful weather lately and I love it so much! It’s been right around 50 degrees with lots of sun. It’s also starting to stay lighter a little longer at night, which I love. I can’t wait until spring! Yay! I’ve also been enjoying a very yummy breakfast the past few mornings that I love… A wonderful breakfast burrito; 1 egg + 2 egg whites, scrambled with onions, celery, peppers and a little bit of bacon bits (the real kind) topped with a cheese, avocado and tomato. YUM, YUM, YUM! I also topped it Continue Reading…
