Menu Monday: Week of Repeats

It’s Menu Monday again.  I’m terrible at menu planning because I have no idea what our evenings will bring, so linking up after the fact is that way I need to go.  We had a lot of repeated meals this week between several days of

If you’re a Facebook friend, you’ve probably saw me post about this, but I just couldn’t resist.  No, she didn’t get her head stuck in a backpack, or eat a cake, but last Sunday was rough. It finally stopped raining that weekend, so Lo was 

Weekly Workout: July 12 – July 18

Weekly Workout: July 5 – July 11

It felt like a pretty good workout week, even though I only did 4 workouts.  I need to start to recognize that “only” 4 workouts isn’t a failure. Friday, July 5 Noon – Nothing:  I had my glucose tolerance test on Friday, so I didn’t 

Baby Watch: Week 25

This picture is terrible.  I don’t care how I look, but the quality is awful and it’s blurry even though it was taken with a real camera.  Lo’s iphone has a defect in the lens and mine isn’t as good of quality, so we used
