Anniversary Cookies

Four years ago today, Meeker and I tied the knot. The funny thing is, I can never remember our anniversary (is that funny?) I’m not very good at dates. I think I’ve asked Meeker five times in the last two weeks… What day is our anniversary again? August 4th or August 7th? Wait…is it August … Continue reading »

Mellow Monday

We had such a nice ease into the week today. It started and ended with nice long walks. The space between was filled with eating, napping, and watching a giant thunderstorm roll across the Rocky Mountains. Have I mentioned that I love my new life? Breakfast toasted banana bread with almond butter and fruit plus … Continue reading »

Look who’s back.

After almost a month with no real appetite…it’s back! As it turns out, feeding this little nugget ten times a day takes some extra calories. Bring it on.

Cookies, Cookies Everywhere

Here I am before I left for the cookie exchange… and after! Look at all the variety… I somehow managed to only eat one of these (the chocolate buck eyes you see right in front) before dinner. Sweet potato with black beans. I cooked the ‘tater in the microwave for 6 minutes, then cut it … Continue reading »

Woosh!

Today flew by. It was 7 o’clock and I was at the grocery store picking up rolls, and then BAM it was 3:30 and the kids were walking out the door. It was a total blur, but we did a lot today. I didn’t get a potty break until about 3 o’clock, but it was … Continue reading »
