The Flash

Being a super mommy is no easy task. I find myself doing twenty things at once. Early today I was making dinner, unloading and reloading the dishwasher, changing laundry, and doing paperwork at the same time. Ok, so that's only four things but seems like twenty. I am a busy busy bee. Trying to live a healthy lifestyle is something that I am working hard at everyday and on busy days like today is when it is especially challenging. I have always been "ahem" a  thicker person and being happy with myself is something that I have only recently experienced. I have learned to quit complaining and if you want change you have to work for it. I have been devoted to not giving in and giving my kids sweets. It was so hard when they were younger and we would be at grandma's and grandpa's and telling them not to give them sweets. I don't think an 18 month old who can't even say the work candy should have some. The only time they have had candy was on Halloween and they were given a sucker. Thats it. (To my knowledge) Who knows what goes on at Gran's house. Maci loves her green beans. I mean you set a bowl of peas or green beans in front of her and it is gone. Chipper loves corn. Giving my kids veggies and fruit on a consistent basis and exposing them to different foods in different ways is something that I am proud of. Not that we don't let them indulge every now and then. I have a younger sister who has two kids 4 and 2 that my kids adore and they stayed the night the other night so we had "ice cream" cones. I had some strawberry frozen yogurt so we all satisfied our sweet tooth this weekend. Maci loved it. Chipper isn't really into cold food but Maci ate hers and half of his. Here are my sweet babies enjoying some time with their cousins. 



Maci is our little "pig pen" but is always up for posing for a picture.

Chipper is thinking "The Mommarazzi is at it again!" Get this crazy lady away!


Caylee loves Maci. They are going to be so close when they get older. Lord help us! :)
