My highlights: week 2

Hey hey!  It was a good week around these parts.  I got some time to hang with girlfriends, I took P to the library and the zoo, and I even fit in several workouts.  Happy dance.  🙂 Here are some photos I took throughout. Beet, carrots, apple, ginger juice + an article from my dad about the range of GI/immune responses to oats.  Gluten is one tricky beast. Hilarious pose.  This kid kills me. Do you have a textual relationship with your sushi provider?  Guilty! I looked over and…this.  Standing is now his fave.  Ok,… Read more >

Week ‘o eats

The whole shebang of last week in one post.  Here goes. Breakfast on Monday was the last of this savory bread and fried eggs.   Breakfast on Tuesday was out – I had a savory crepe with hash browns at Crepeville. Because Crepeville’s portions are awesomely massive I had leftovers for breakfast on Wednesday.  Which I paired with two fried eggs. Thursday I made steel cut oats in the rice cooker (the crock pot was already occupied) for our whole family.  I topped mine with a bunch of non-nut things (aka seeds galore) – including… Read more >

Our first weekend back in LA

It’s so weird that we haven’t been back to LA since we left back in April.  We’ve seen several of our so cal friends since but not all of them so we decided to pop in for a quick visit. Honestly, we’ve been trying to squeeze a weekend in since this past fall, but then all this (good) stuff was happening with Kyle’s business…and then the holidays came along…and you know how it goes… But we finally got this in the calendar and what a fun time it was! Now.  As much as I adore… Read more >

Christmas 2013

Round 2!  Actually, if you count the Thanksmas we had in Tahoe earlier in December with Kyle’s family, this is really our third Christmas.    No such thing as too much celebrating, right?!  Especially when it’s baby’s first Christmas. We got to my parents’ house just in time for a few cookies.  Which provided the perfect fuel for the Niners’ game. My little cheerleader fell asleep on my shoulder during the game so I wasn’t much help in preparing dinner.   After we put him down we had a mini facetime sesh with my sis… Read more >

Lake Tahoe weekend

From Davis, it’s not too long of a car ride to Lake Tahoe!  And since we left straight from swim lessons (again!), we had a sleepy babe for 80% of the ride.   Once we got to the cabin, it was time to relax.  🙂   Ok, first unpack, then relax.  Food much?  You’d think we were packing to feed an army for a month.  But it was really just Thursday through Sunday (celebrating an early Christmas with Kyle’s side of the family).   Guess what’s in those plastic boxes!?!  SIX (!!) different kinds of… Read more >
