Finally Food!

Hey Loves! I hope you had a great week! We are still adjusting to baby life, it's so beautiful, no sleep and all! :) Baby A seems to sleep every other night, and by sleep, I mean 4 hours, nurses, I change her, and rock her back to sleep. So sometimes I get a total of 8 hours, but the other nights it's more like 4. We are working on it! 


T has been so amazing, he is such a hands on Daddy. He goes shopping at Whole Foods, makes dinner most nights, takes care of the baby so I can rest. Last night he make "Tofu Cacciatore" this was so good!!
I made this smoothie the other day with some Rice Nog that T picked up at Whole Foods. I added 2 frozen bananas, cinnamon and the nog to Lafayette (my Vitamix).
I wasn't too fond of the Rice Nog on it's own. The color had a brown tint and it was pretty watery. When I added bananas, it thickened it up and it tasted much better. I think I'd rather make my own raw vegan version instead.
T picked up some frozen Rising Moon vegan ravioli's and topped them with some tomato sauce. I love these ravs for a special treat, they have a ton of protein!
I made myself brown rice with a huge pile of sauteed kale for dinner one night. Mmm, I love my kale!
I was pleasantly surprised the other day when I received a lovely package of vegan goodies from Lisa..
She sent me some homemade goodies too, macaroons and an assortment of chocolate treats! I've been snacking on these daily!! Thank you Lisa, you are too kind! XO
Have a wonderful weekend all!!!

yummy food...i've been eying some butternut squash ravioli's...and have been thinking i want to try to make them myself...veganish and with none of that crap that goes inside most store bought pasta products...you know?! the sauteed kale and brown rice looks amazing...and i've never been a fan of cacciatore...i know right? i should be...being italian and all...but it looks delish.

and you are all so lucky to have one another...congrats on the beautiful audriana...love the name...so beautiful and classic...

have a beautiful weekend.

Yeah for a supportive husband. My brother in law is doing a great job at supporting his wife! THey just had a child a few weeks before yours. Oh, and you should change the "about me". It still says, "expecting" a baby in November. :) The foods sound yummy! And, btw, not sure if you have seen my tweets about it yet, but I'm starting up a raw/vegan snack food company http://kck.st/couzJh

I'll tell ya, that Mr. T is a catch. Hang onto him!

Delighted the lil' diva darling is home with you now and you're discovering your routine together. Savor each moment...you can sleep later. ツ

It's so nice to have a hubby who can cook, huh? Enjoy it. And those precious moments with baby A. Lisa is the sweetest!

T sounds like a great husband and daddy! You are very lucky to have him.
I just can't get over how perfect Audriana looks. Seriously.., perfect! I don't say that to too many people. My son looked like an alien to Dave and I when he was first born because his head was so big and it was a tight push out. So his head was shaped like a cone in the back of this head.
