Time For Catch Up

Hey All! Thanks for all the birthday love for Baby A! I still can't believe she is a year old! A little over a year ago we were looking for top rated nursery furniture (that by the way, is used as storage since Baby A sleeps in our bed!). Time sure does fly! Anyway, Happy December (a day late). Are you all excited for the holiday season? I am! Last year, Baby A was only a month old and even though she doesn't understand yet, I am really excited to see her open her gifts on Christmas morning. We may even take her to see Santa this weekend! ;) 


I have a lot of food leftover from a few weekends ago. We went to dinner one Sunday, with my whole family, to celebrate my grandparents 62nd wedding anniversary! What an inspiration they are!!! I ordered a salad of spinach, walnuts and pomegranate seeds.
And gluten free pasta with broccoli and sun dried tomatoes. I love that most restaurants now carry gluten free pasta. 
I brought food for Baby A and a green juice! She loves smoothies and green juice!
This was lunch one day: kale salad topped with broccoli sprouts, hummus, avocado and a Sunshine Burger.
I made a big pitcher of nettle tea for the fridge. I had to stop drinking it at one point, a few months ago, because it was making my milk supply overflow! But now I think I am okay!
Callie was kind enough to send me some Rawxies in their new packaging! The Banana Bread cookies are divine! Actually, all of her cookies are. I went through these in two days! ;) Thanks Callie!
I had some of my sisters lasagna leftover so I paired it with a kale salad for dinner one night.
And this was dinner earlier this week: kale salad topped with curried brown rice (just added a ton of curry powder while it was boiling), chickpeas and avocado.
And finally, a Whole Food salad that I had last weekend: raw kale, green beans with almonds, white beans and cabbage slaw.
Have a great weekend!! XO

Baby A looks SO CUTE drinking her green juice! She has the biggest eyes I've ever seen. She looks like a little doll :)

Do most restaurants carry GF pasta? I guess I don't often take the chance because of the cross contamination possible in the colander, etc.

Great that Baby A loves green juice! Makes me so happy to hear that!

Our little niece does the same, she loves her green drinks. She sees all us big girls drinking it and she always wants to join in. It is sooo cute.

Have a great weekend friend!
