Food, Home, and Family

In an effort to try and get ready for baby #2, I?ve been doing my best to make sure everything?s ready to go before the little chickpea makes her arrival. I just have this feeling that life with a two year old and a newborn baby won?t leave me much time but to sit on the couch and say MOOO.

I?m also worried I?m going to pull out my hair, because some days I think Baby Boo is plotting against me in anger against the soon to be arrival of our new family member. We?ve recently established time out, which has been a?how do I put this?

JOKE.

Time out doesn?t work when your toddler tells you to go away yourself and go on time out.

Seriously Boo?

Best idea you?ve ever had.

Despite willing to give anything for a nice foot massage, pedicure, and a full nights rest without 7 trips to the bathroom, I?m enjoying these past few months we have before things become a little different around here.

And let me tell you, I couldn?t be more excited for that change.

To begin, I?ve been doing a great job of making, writing down recipes, and taking pictures of food. I figure as long as I have some saved up for those days where I?ve done nothing but been a human cow, I?ll have something slightly more appealing for you to enjoy!

Most of these recipes/pictures are first runs and I still want to take my shot at them a few times. I like to try things out more than once before I post things, that way I know that it all works out.

And because I love to work extra hard for my readers to like me :) !

The above was an attempt at cauliflower pizza crust. I wasn?t too impressed with the texture of the crust, so I?m definitely going to try that again.

Other than food, I?ve been working hard to get my house in order that way I won?t worry about decorating/organizing after baby.

And because I don?t like to sleep?or sit?

First thing I tackled was cleaning out our closet.

Our closet didn?t have much room?Especially with all the hubs white shoes! :)

I think I did the best I could despite such little space. Trust me, whenever we have a house I?m getting a closet all to myself?I?ll let the hubby store his shoes in the garage.

Next I wanted to get rid of our big out of place black dresser, so for mother?s day my parents bought me this dresser at ?a thrift store?

?After a little bit of prep and paint, and almost putting my self in to labor, I ended up with this:

Slowly but surely, our room is coming together.

Lastly, but more importantly, we?ve been spending more time as a family every second we get.

As you may know my husband has been a busy little bee first with school, and now work, so we don?t get much time together. When we do have those days or a few hours, we take full advantage and spend it together doing something fun!

I couldn?t be more excited for what these next few months have in store for our little family. I love to watch us grow together as we pass each milestone.

Have a great Wednesday!!
