Insta-Friday

It's Insta-Friday around here again.
And I've missed a couple of weeks so I'm just going to lump them all together.
All pictures were taken with the Instagram app on my iPhone.

Wesley helped himself to some (unknown amount) of these the other day. He called them candy.

This kid? Sleeps. A lot. Except when I'm not holding her. Then she screams. A lot.

Husband and I are taking this course. So far? Big changes. Changes that may allow me to not have to work. Yay Dave Ramsey!!

The beach with the fam in February. Gotta love So Cal.

He is perfectly happy chilling with his sammy on the blanket while the bigs splashed around in the water with Daddy.

I found this fabric the other day and scooped some up. Now the question is, what should I make?

One example of a no sugar no flour dinner. So far, so good.

Husband found this little idea on Pinterest (not sure about the original source) and showed it to me, so I decided to keep a visual reminder of how far I've come and how much I still have left. There's nothing like a visual reminder every day to keep me motivated.

She may or may not have spent some extra time in her seat because everybody else was sleeping too, and I had my hands free for a while!

Life with this guy around is never boring. Cause when you have enough personality to pull off camo and sparkles, you have it all.

Happy Fridays!!!

Insta-Friday

Linking up again over at Life. Rearranged.
Here's a little peek at my life via Instagram. (totallytheturtle if you want to follow)

I spent some quality time with the 5 year old, coloring a picture for Daddy. It was great and she really enjoyed the attention. But the fact that she mixed markers and crayons in the same picture made me want to have a panic attack. Apparently I have more problems than I thought.

This recipe is nowhere near the healthy end of the spectrum. But it was super delicious. I baked it for my Moms group at church, so I only had one little piece. But I for sure could have had way more.

We took a crib rail off of this guys bed to make it in to a big boy bed, preparing him for the transition out of his crib for the baby. This means that I get to spend the beginning of nap time sitting on the floor of his room until he falls asleep. This also means that I get to listen to him snore. Loudly. I'm talking sawing logs.

I love me some baby feet. I know that one set is super small, and the other one, not so much. But I love that kids Flinstones. They make me smile.

We have been having meals delivered for the past couple of weeks because of the baby. Well that has finally come to an end and its time for momma to start providing for her family again. (Yikes!) this was my first attempt. In a new crock pot. That apparently cooks way faster than the old one. So we had take out instead. Again.

I know this week wasn't super exciting, but that's what happens when you barely leave the house! One of these days I'll get back in to the swing of things!!

I'm linking up with Jeannett over at Life. rearranged. because her blog is awesome and her heart is even more amazing. And because it's fun.


I have Instagram on my phone, which I totally love. It's like facebook or twitter, but with pictures. Fun.


So every week you get to see my life via my Instagram pictures. You know you want to.

 The 5 year old donated her hair to locks of love. 10 inches of it.
Bye bye long, beautiful, thick, tangly hair.
Hello more time in the mornings.

While we were there, the 21 month old got a hair cut too.
Apparently the tween missed the memo on the surfer cut that we were going for and opted for a Bieber cut instead. Gross.

Cuties for $1.99. Snacks all week. Yum.

Totally not diet food fare, but the Pioneer Woman Chicken Spaghetti? De.lic.ious.

This guy? Makes me smile. Alot. A lot.

Because my diet has been not exactly healthy lately I've had to share everything I eat with the littles. But this snack? All to myself.
