Healthy Eating~

Happy St. Patricks Day~

Today for breakfast the kids and I had Steel Cut Irish Oats topped with cinnamon, real maple syrup and a splash of vanilla soy. I wanted to cook up something Irish since our traditional corn beef and cabbage dinner with all the fixins will have to wait one more day! :( (Hubby won't be here for dinner tonight).

This morning the kids and I also had a smoothie: Frozen strawberries,banana,unsweetened yogurt, honey,ground golden flax, wheat germ and vanilla soy milk. (with the help of Jackie)

I then baked up some yummy Whole Food Blueberry Muffins! (with the help of Olivia)


My house smells like a bakery today!

Tomorrow it will smell like cooking cabbage.....stinky but oh so yummy! LOL


I also have a loaf of whole wheat bread going in my bread machine!

For dinner I will make a shrimp and Asian noodle stir fry with tons of veggies.

Whats everyone else eating tonight?

Peace and Blessings,

March Balance Update~

Over at the blog tittled "which name" I am participating in "a step toward balance".
Go over and read what others are doing or decide to join in!

Make this your best year ever.....one month,one step at a time!

Read here to see what other things I have done since January to find balance.

For March my goal is to keep out of the grocery store and use the food I have in my freezers and on my Costso shelves. Make meals from what I have.

So here is the update for week 2~

• Walmart $40.00 (cheese sticks and frozen food like potpies, tater tots and fish sticks)
• Safeway $105.96 (fresh fruits and veggies)

So a total of $145.96 for week 2.

A great improvement from my first week!

Baby Doll~

In our house we believe there can never be to many babies! {including doll babies!}

The other day when I was out at the market {Walmarket}lol  I spotted a brown haired doll.

What really caught my eye was the purple clogs the doll had on. They looked liked Crocs!

Most dolls I find have blonde hair and blue eyes, so I picked up the box (that was riped) and went in search of a price. I was not able to find any more dolls like that one.....I searched the whole toy section!
So without knowing the price I still decided to buy it!
The cost ended up being under $20.00!

A brown haired baby doll for my sweet brown haired daughter!

Blue and Purple are her favorite colors too....it was a perfect fit!
Added bonus feature of the doll...
Hair that smells of vanilla....I'm not sure why? The box did not say anything about it.

Olivia decided to name her dolly "Alley".....she is pictured here trying to give Alley a piggy back ride.

{Olivia loves piggy rides from her brothers...so she wanted to share that love with her new baby!}

I know it won't be long and the girls will asking to through a baby shower for our new baby!

When it comes to babies real or not we love to celebrate life!

Have a great Sunday~

Peace and Love,
