When you spend your whole Saturday morning baking cookies for a cookie exchange… (I totally made these Hot Chocolate Cookies – thanks so much for the recommendation, Julie! They are SO good…and I know have 5 dozen of them in my home). And photographing endless numbers of “races” so we can ...
Pass the Tissues
Well what looked to be a fun start to the long holiday weekend ended up taking a turn for the worse on Saturday in the form of a big ol’ nasty cold. UGH. Thankfully, it seems that I’ve been the one experiencing the brunt of it, so these two (for the most part) have been okay. Just having ...
Fun Facts Friday {9/19}
1. I got so much positive feedback from you guys on this week’s WIAW post with featuring Lucas’s eats as well. Thank you! I didn’t realize so many of you would be interested in ideas for his meals?! If a toddler meals thing something you’d like to see more of down the road, I can certainly work on ...
Looking Forward To…
It’s the sickness that doesn’t want to leave our household…oooof. Thankfully by Sunday, Lucas started acting a bit more like himself, despite the fact that he’s still sporting quite the runny nose, nasty cough, and now, a raspy and hoarse little voice. Poor guy. Unfortunately, my inklings ...
Wasa Crispbreads Giveaway
Well Happy Friday to you all! Before we get to the subject of this post, I just have to go ahead and toot my own horn for a second. Remember last night how I said I really wasn't sure whether or not I'd find the motivation to head down to the treadmill after dinner? Well...I did it! I told ...
Ending On A Positive Note
You know, breakfast today was pretty good. Real good, in fact. But I had actually been craving eggs in a bad way. Unfortunately, I was pretty hungry by the time I got home this morning, which meant I had no patience to wait for ‘em to cook. Luckily, I knew that this wouldn’t be much a problem…I’d ...
She Ate Her Words
So last night’s session at the gym went really, really well! I had my first two small group sessions to teach, and they were both awesome. I’m telling you, I was literally on Cloud 9 the entire time. I absolutely loved it! I actually had to chuckle to myself at one point because one of the girls in ...
Keep On Repeating
I’m not getting sick. I’m not getting sick. I’m not getting sick… I’m hoping that if I repeat this enough, it will actually remain true. This morning when I woke up, I had a little bit of a scratchy throat, but I tried telling myself that it was just one of those “I slept with my mouth open too ...
Thrown Together in Less Than Three
Do you all have superpowers or something? Because I’m feeling SO MUCH BETTER this afternoon and I’m quite tempted to say it’s from all your wonderful get-well wishes. So THANK YOU…I’m on the mend!! Thanks to my later-than-expected-but-still-super-fun-dinner-out last night, I didn’t end up getting ...
You Know You’re Sick When…
Darn this darn cold! Right now, my nose is looking and feeling a whole lot like this: source I know, I know…it’s just a cold. But I just needed to take my five seconds to complain about it. Ok, I’m good. So maybe I’ll blame it on the cold, but I actually did not take one photo of food ...
