Ok, now I want to know, when you do get to eat, is it hot? Or you grabbing something unhealthy because it’s convenient or settling for a cold cup of coffee? With every addition we add in our family, MY time decreases a little more. Let’s not even get into how hectic the holiday season is! Mom life is a constant struggle to remain balanced… semi balanced… a little balanced? Yea any of those, haha! It’s so…

My Chicken and “Rice” Recipe and Non Toxic Cookware Guide
One thing I’ve learned after starting my family is that finding good recipes that don’t take several hours to make is really important. It’s so easy to say, “well, nothing is cooked, so let’s just head out to eat.” How often have you heard those words come out of your mouth? Fast food or eating out is such a waste of money and will pack on the pounds at the same time. Don’t get me wrong, getting “vacation meals” every now and then isn’t bad but don’t make it a habit. I am with the kids 24/7 and even though Derrek is more than hands on when he is home,…

Good Mornings Thanks to Breakfast and Coffee
Sleep isn’t something that I get a lot of these days so breakfast and coffee are my jam. I try to wake up before the kids but because Scarlet Reese is teething, it doesn’t happen as frequently right now. I search for all the little teasers of sleep and take full advantage even if it’s only ten or so minutes! This makes me really excited for breakfast and coffee. The kids and I have always been big breakfast eaters but now that it’s fall, it’s become even more of an obsession. If you haven’t checked out my healthy oatmeal casserole, you need to. The recipe is so delicious and really…
