The Ultimate Mom Test!

Take this test!
Recipe for: The All-Natural Mom
Quote: "Yes, it's fruit for dessert again!"

Ingredients:
A big dose of care (with a dash of concern)
Plenty of fiber
Green, leafy veggies (either encouraged or enforced)
Wholesomeness sprinkled throughout
Add if desired: tofu

Mix all ingredients with fresh air, sunshine, and a sense of humor. Serve with love.

Whether you're just trying to make sure something green (Gatorade doesn't count) passes your kids' lips once in awhile, or whether you're calculating your family's intake of antioxidants, you're a woman with health on your mind. Which is why we might find you outdoors playing tag with your kids before dinner (with plenty of sunscreen on everyone), or reminding the kids at bedtime that they only have to floss the teeth they want to keep.

You have a lot more on your busy mind than just fats, carbs and proteins—you know that food is more than what keeps tummies from rumbling. An apple a day keeps the doctor away, and so do your healthy choices. The good habits you teach can last a lifetime. So what if the raisin snacks and low-fat dinner recipes don't always make you the most popular member of the household. You've got your mind set on a higher goal.

Your style is full of energy and ingenuity. Which is why you can leap over junk food and lethargy in a single bound, and juggle all of your responsibilities in- and outside of the home.

Tip: Don't forget to indulge every once and awhile! Nutrition is important, but that occasional gooey treat won't ruin your healthy lifestyle. It'll just make it more fun!

Our New Addition!

Guess What

Just to let you all know...I am going to have another baby! I am due on December 9th . This was totally UN - expected ...but what can you do right? It sure came at a stressful time for us, but that is how life works I guess. I am excited , but at the same time very nervous . I am not sure what it is going to be like with 3 kids...but I am sure I can handle it. Everyone I have talked too, always said 3 is the hardest, then it gets easier after that...Great huh! We are going to try and NOT find out what the sex is this time...since I have everything for a boy and girl already ...I think that will make it exciting towards the end for us! Amiah is hoping for a baby sister, but I am hoping for a boy, so Aiden can have someone to play with that isn't a female...he needs some boys around. Aiden will be 3 and Amiah will be almost 5 when the baby comes...I am hoping to get Aiden potty trained by then, and I think Amiah will be a great helper. She loves babies so much!

Baby Update!

Ok, today is my due date...but no baby! I went to my Dr this morning, and she is going to induce me tomorrow night at 8pm. I will probably end up having the baby sometime on Thursday! We are so anxious and excited to have the baby, we can't wait to see what it is! As soon as we get back home, I will post some pictures of the new one!
