Holy cow did you watch Grey's Anatomy last night... OMG... wait am I the only one who still watches it?? Sometimes I wonder. But oh my heavens it was heart wrenching. I mean I was ugly face crying over this episode. How do you kill McDreamy? I just don't get it. It really was very sad and just not a great ending for such a beloved character. But what I will say is that the last song was so perfect and sad for that moment. I love the group Sleeping at Last, and Chasing cars is one of my favorites. Anywho, I believe that I will be in mourning for at least a week over this one. But not to worry. My food game is on point and don't get me going on the greens and water! I'm pretty sure that I made the decision to do two weeks of Atkins induction phase to kick start my life. But oh the food... I'm also going to share and AMAZING desert that I made last night that is low carb that I will probably make some form of it for many weeks to come! Cheers y'all have a great weekend!

I've been drinking all the water, all day long. Pretty much daily I'm drinking 4 liters, and 8 oz. of water, little over a gallon a day! Yay! Go me!! You should jump on the water band wagon. It's good for you! I said so!! Just do it! It's a choice, but it is most def a good one! That's all.

This has been a long week, not a bad week just a long one. Buddy got his cast off Monday, we had tball Tuesday, I had a meeting last night and Buddy has AWANA. So we have pretty much been on the go since Monday with not one night home before 7pm this week. That makes for long days, especially when our days start by leaving the house at 6:30am. Today I left at 6am, yowza! But in the grand scheme of things we have had a good week, but I am ready for the weekend!!! Plus, the house is a nightmare that needs to be cleaned. So...moving on... the benefit to this week is that I have honestly had the best sleep of my life for really the last month. I feel so rested and happier (as I just yawned :)) But in all seriousness I really have been sleeping well. I re-ordered my greens, and I am going to be making my sleepy cream from our oils. Buddy loves that I slather it on his feet at night, and I even put it on Julia and Sam last night (and yes I had to put it on EVERYONE!!!) But everyone slept good so there you have it. Julia said that she fell asleep, slept good and never woke up once. I will say that I do sometimes still wake up in the middle of the night, however when I do it's funny because I will wake up and feel like I have been asleep all night and I have no problem rolling over and falling right back to sleep. I only threw that in there because let's be honest, I think I'm hilarious.. ha ha, just kidding, but no really I do! ANYWAY, I'm just in a super good mood today so I just would like to say that I hope you have a super duper pooper scooper Thursday!!! Luv ya! Sleep good my friends! And in the event you would like to sleep better too let me know! xoxoxo

Did you watch The Fast and the Furious 7? Oh my, I loved it, and I cannot get over the end and the tribute. I love the song they used, it is a mixture of sad and happy and I just love it. I really hope that they do not make a Fast and Furious 8. I think it would ruin it. I think that it was perfect and a fitting end to the entire series. I really loved Paul Walker! Oh my.... In other non Paul Walker related news... my little buddy got his cast off last night. He was so happy!!! But let me tell you that his arm smelled so bad, it was disgusting. And just look at those dirty little fingers! Even after his shower his arm stunk. I ended up using a mixture of coconut oil, (Young Living) Purification, Peace and Calming, and Lavender (because it was bedtime) and rubbed on his arm. The smell went away and the boy went to sleep no problem. I even put a little on the bottom of my feet with socks and that combined with my Greens gave me an AMAZING nights sleep. I think I am completely hooked. I will be using the coconut oil mixture on my feet for the next week just to see but oh my. I honestly have had the best sleep of my life this last month. Greens and oils man! They are the way to go. And no I am not embarrassed to say I have become one of those people! Oh and remember my little war room idea for my boy? Well we had one crazy fit the other night and he asked to go to his war room. I put him in the space that I planned for this and played some worship music and brought in the diffuser with a calming mixture of oils in it and honestly it was amazing how he calmed down. I will definitely be utilizing this space again. I also noticed something this weekend. We had his best buddy over so that they could play and we went to the movies, and both boys got a Slurpie and a little candy. Later that afternoon the crash was ridiculous. He was a nightmare and I realized that he hadn't eaten lunch (he was with someone previously to coming home and I didn't realize that they hadn't fed him lunch and we were busy and I didn't ask) I was doing some reading on sugar and also how if you do not keep up on their food consumption they can have their blood sugar crash which can turn into a crazy fit, just like the one we had. I immediately fed him and holy moly the boy didn't even mention that he was hungry but he ate Mac n cheese, two fish sticks, yogurt, a baby bell cheese, and an apple sliced with some nutella. I'd say he was starving. BAD MOM! So I am really going to be trying to make sure that he is eating something every three hours. This makes a ton of sense to me. I also read that for some children when their blood sugar is low in the morning because it's been so long since they have eaten have terrible mornings. BEEN THERE! So they suggest a snack before bed and breakfast immediately upon waking. Done! I will be giving his a snack every night before bed (something healthy) and breakfast within ten minutes of him getting up. I am also going to make sure that even if he is buying lunch at school that he has a snack for recess so that there is less time between meals for him. Hey I am willing to try anything! I prefer my happy buddy as opposed to the monster that creeps out at times! I have not for probably the last 3 nights gone to bed before 9pm (sad face) but I am still a work in progress. I also must confess that I did get upset with buddy this weekend when he was having his meltdown. Hey I'm human. I struggle with this. But I will say that my eating was on point all weekend! So here are my goals this week: 1. Drink all the water!!! oh yes, chug chug!! 2. Bed by 9pm (except maybe Thursday night because Grey's Anatomy looks amazing) 3. Eat within my plan 4. Don't waste money!!! (I added that one because I need to save)(it doesn't help that I have received 4 parking tickets in the last two months! ahhh the joys of working in the city!)(I'll start parking in my space in my parking structure!) Get it together Heather! ha ha!!! Anyway, make it an AMAZING DAY! XOXOXOXOXO

Its a little crazy to have the time to blog... I'm not sure what I'm going to do with myself. Well I do know that I will probably be blogging at least 3 times a week goodie!! So I'm looking to do something that will help me make a little extra money. I'm exploring a few options, I'm trying the Young Living Oils, I'm trying out some IT Works products so we'll see. I would NEVER sell or try to get someone else to sell something that I personally don't believe in. So at this point I'm still looking. I can say that I LOVE the greens from IT Works!!! Best sleep of my life without Benadryl or a sleep aid! I also am really liking the oils so I'll keep using different products from these companies to see how I like them. Even if I don't sell them you should try greens!! They will change your life, if only your sleeping life. I look forward to going to bed at night now! BUT there is a caveat, you must find the right mixture or they taste awful! I use 8oz. of water, greens, and 1 whole packet of Crystal Light Peach Mango Green Tea and it tastes wonderful! I think it tastes a little like a Flinstone vitamin. Trust me you won't be sorry you tried it! Last night I made Cauliflower pizza for dinner. It was very yummy! Sam (who hates cauliflower) said I hit it out of the park! So that is a win! I don't feel like writing the recipe...I'm super lame right? Basically I put cauliflower in the food processor - microwaved after for 8 minutes - let it cool - added 1 egg, salt and pepper, mozzarella cheese, and parmesan cheese - squeezed together and mixed - pressed into a Pam sprayed pan - baked for about 15 minutes at 425 - added pizza sauce, cheese, turkey pepperoni, heirloom tomato's, mushrooms, olives, and fresh basil - put back in the oven and baked another 10 minutes - sliced and ate. There you have it! HA HA if you really want to know the exact deets let me know and I'll tell you. It was yummy! Try it today! Super easy! BTW I was in bed at 9pm last night! Yippee!!! Everything else went well. Working on keeping up the fight! Have a fab day my friends!!! Let's rock it together!! But first lets go get a green tea from Starbucks!! XOXO

Ha ha!!! I actually don't dread Monday's too much! I don't love getting up early but I do like my job so it is not so bad. So here is how the weekend stacked up... We had a fun time at tball and had a two hour batting practice later Saturday afternoon at the park. Momma is a good batter, we actually all had some fun using the pitching machine at the park. Mommy and Daddy had a contest to see who could hit the furthest and we even had a little straggler join us. We had a great time Saturday just hanging out. Sunday we went to Church and bbq'd at home. Nice and relaxing weekend! He is so cute in his little uniform! Our little princess Ice cream smiles are the best! Today is buddy's best friends birthday... We love this little dude! Happy Birthday friend!!! This weekend the only goal I really kept was going to Church. But at least I got the most important one done. Oh and my words were pretty good also! So here are my goals for the day and week: 1. Drink a gallon of water (today and each day this week) 2. Be in bed by 9pm (everyday - I did this last night yay) 3. Have my cleaning done each day (I'm doing a little each day, we'll see how that shakes out) 4. My words... (everyday) 5. Eat within my plan (everyday) 6. Hit my goal number (I'll keep this to myself, but I will let you know if I hit it!) Anywho, that seems like a good start! Happy Monday Folks!!! XOXO ~kisses
