Breakfast Time

This morning as I was making my green smoothie the always

amazing "Its Breakfast Time" song popped into my mind.

So I decided to share.

A major fav for my little one's is "There's a Party In My Tummy".

Its so yummy you should watch it.

Who doesn't love Flight of the Conchords and a little French in the morning?

"Foux Du Fa Fa"

This one to help you want to get up and dance my friends.

I have no idea what it is saying but it makes me want to learn french!

I am working on making dinner every night.

I must admit that if Justin is gone or if the littlest thing comes up 

I am all about running and getting something.

I also struggle with remembering to take the meat out of the freezer to thaw out.

Which leads me to running to the store to buy something which I already own.

So here is to planning ahead and saving some money.

This Week's Dinners

Sriracha Sauce Salmon with Rice and Black Beans.

Copycat Chick Fil A Chicken Nuggets with Chick Fil A Sauce and Home Fries 

Man Pleasing Chicken (not my name) with Fruit, Baked Zucchini & baked beans

Taco with Salad and Black Beans

Chicken Pitas with Tzatziki Sauce with Fresh Fruit

Homemade Pizza with Salad

Breakfast (a great standby for when Justin is gone).

  

Never Give Up

Last Friday at the end of yoga, my amazing and super awesome yoga instructor

Robin, told us about Arthur Boorman.

I could write a million words about how inspiring this man is or you

could just click play and find out for yourself.

Yup I'm with you! So watch it already!

So Smooth

My family is taking on a 30 day green smoothie challenge from The Unconventional Kitchen
(not all of us willingly).

I love green smoothies!!! I had fallen out of making them and when I did I pretty much just made my fav.  I love that I get 30 new recipes and a healthier way for the fam's to start our day.

So with us about to start day six I have to say I feel amazing!!!

I feel more level, not so chaotic in my life.  Way more energy and I am waking up refreshed and ready for the day.  I should add that I have also cut out most sugar (had a cookie Justin made last night) and I am working out most days.  It's amazing how food affects us for good or bad.

I realized one day that if we didn't start looking at how we view the way we were eating then one day

we would have to change the way we viewed it.

Here's my go to smoothie.

CHOCOLATE, PEANUT BUTTER AND BANANA 

! scoop chocolate protein powder

! frozen banana 

1 spoonful of peanut butter

1 handful of greens (spinach or kale)

Mix together and enjoy.

Evie is 3

So Evie turned 3 in March!!!

She is the funniest kid.

We call here are sour patch kid.

One second she super sweet and the next she has the devil in her eyes.

Evie loves Wreck it Ralph and Hello Kitty

and she had to have everything pink for her birthday.

Evie hates birthday cake candles and runs for

her little life when you light. 

Which is why she is looks a little worried in this picture.
