My mom’s birthday weekend

This weekend was a blast, and it’s not just because I was at my parents’ house with tons of support, but also because my dad threw my mom a big party for her 60th birthday and I got to see so many family members who I haven’t seen in way too long. It was so awesome.  Have I mentioned how much I love my family? Despite having so many hands on deck to help with the littles, I felt (feel) like a zombie for far too much of the day, but I think that has a… Read more >

Backing up to Saturday (of the Memorial weekend) we had turkey burgers with a cauliflower salad. His was on sourdough, mine was on Udi’s GF bread.  His had gouda, mine had Daiya.  Both had lots of BBQ sauce and romaine. But the star of the show (for me) was the… Read more >

Toddler meal updates

I haven’t shared much in the kiddo food department in a while and that’s mostly because not much has changed. He prefers mainly carbs to start the day, which is odd since he used to LIVE and DIE for eggs.  Now he’s over the eggs.  Whatever.  He alternates between home-made quick breads, waffles, pancakes, donuts, and oatmeal.  All with a bunch of fruit (usually blueberries or grapes).  And bear in mind this is after his pre-breakfast snack of apple slices.  And then typically sunflower and pumpkin seeds until he’s full. GF pancakes with coconut flour, GF all… Read more >
