It has been quite a while! Would you like to know the real reason I have returned to my blogging site? Because honestly I have not thought about it one bit since getting off. I have gotten back on here to see all of the other lovely blogs that I used to follow. My blog site is my space where I have linked to my favorite blogs. I cannot wait to see what everyone has been up to. I have taken a break from my Facebook page and I can only spend so much time on Pinterest and Instagram.<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7MK2xqqv_zKjv27CKutAf98wJLt2Ubk8Cm2UQNb7hEnKjZNkN5u2VWFs7dpnusjtuMKGvGl_HwKkknha99GtwT4Js-U98UMBKVzbw2zmTTIvlD1BIrAFxOk3MgYmlMZKcSt10pz0e6J7U/s1600/20150517_145111.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7MK2xqqv_zKjv27CKutAf98wJLt2Ubk8Cm2UQNb7hEnKjZNkN5u2VWFs7dpnusjtuMKGvGl_HwKkknha99GtwT4Js-U98UMBKVzbw2zmTTIvlD1BIrAFxOk3MgYmlMZKcSt10pz0e6J7U/s320/20150517_145111.jpg" width="320" height="240" data-original-width="1280" data-original-height="960" /></a></div> However, now that I'm back on here I have a renewed desire to post some more articles. I am amazed that I have 100 posts! It will also be fun to see what I used to post about. I can guarantee that I have grown as a wife, mother and person since then. Hope you all have a wonderful day and please, share your blog so I can check it out.

In addition there will be many supplies priced to sell (at a quarter!!) since I'm totally cleaning out most of my craft items. Below are pictures of some of the items available to purchase. We look forward to seeing you if you know us! MERRY CHRISTMAS.<br />

I finally realized that I love working out to videos that have music along with them. Two of my favorite workout video people are Chalene Johnson and Leslie Sansone. Chalene has her Turbo Jam series and Leslie Sanson has walking videos. Both are awesome! I also enjoy doing yoga workout videos like Mandy Ingber's Yogalosophy.</p>

I am currently 39 weeks pregnant with our second son. This pregnancy has flown by! I have been very busy (as you can probably see by my lack of posts on my blog.) When we found out we were having another boy we shared it with the family at Easter. I simply scooped out the center of cupcakes, mixed up some blue icing, put it in a bag and squeezed it into the holes. Super easy and a great way for each family member to find out. With our first we had a cake made with the batter the color of the gender.<br />

I love this mug cake! I've made it so many times I have it memorized. I first made it when my son was a newborn and I wanted something easy at the end of the day. Something just for me, because we all know newborns take a lot out of us. So... this is it! The best cake (to me). If you want it dairy free you can use almond milk and exclude or substitute the chocolate chips.<br />
I found the original recipe somewhere online. Can't remember where. Sorry!<br />
<u>Original Chocolate Mug Cake</u><br />
3 Tb flour<br />
3 Tb powdered sugar<br />
2 Tb cocoa powder<br />
1/4 tsp baking soda<br />
dash salt<br />
3 Tb canola/veg oil<br />
3 Tb milk<br />
1/4 tsp vanilla extract<br />
1 tsp chocolate chips<br />
<br />
<u>Erin's Chocolate Mug Cake</u><br />
3 Tb flour<br />
3 Tb powdered sugar<br />
1 1/2 Tb cocoa powder<br />
1/4 tsp baking soda<br />
dash salt<br />
1 Tb applesauce<br />
2 Tb canola oil<br />
3 Tb almond milk (Sometimes I substitute 1-2 Tb with leftover coffee)<br />
1/4 tsp vanilla extract<br />
2 tsp chocolate chips (Sometimes a dollop of peanut butter too!)<br />
<br />
Mix everything except for chocolate chips in a mug. Sprinkle chocolate chips in the center. Microwave 1:05. (You might have to vary it, but DO NOT OVERBAKE. You want to see some gooeyness) I usually race the microwave and try to clean everything up while the cake is cooking. Top with ice cream, leftover frosting, caramel/chocolate sauce.... and enjoy!<br />

She Moved the Movies<p dir="ltr">Our basement is divided into two parts: my craft side where I run my home business & the rec side where my son plays. However, I noticed as he is nearing two that he loves putting movies and dvds in the player. He knows how to get them playing, including turning on the tv. <br>
   Now, we have lots of fun toys in the basement so there is plenty to entertain him. And usually he doesn't tend to just sit around and watch the movies. Sometimes he does but sometimes he just puts movies in and out of the player.<br>
   What's a momma to do? I could tell him no, and teach him not to play with it. We do have lots of things around the house that we use this approach for. But movies are just so enticing. Just look at the colorful spines! So.... I moved the movies. No, I didn't pack them. And this pregnant momma didn't want to hoist them anywhere. So I simply moved them to the bookshelf to the right of the TV and turned them so that all of the ends of the movies faced the room. Doesn't look as nice but I'm thinking it'll work. We're not House Beautiful anyways. We're House Lived-In.<br>
   I then arranged his toys on the empty shelves and in front of the drawers he always liked to pull out. Hoping the new arrangement of toys will spur some imaginative play.<br>
   And, oh yeah, I even unplugged the VHS/ DVD player. We can easily plug itnin when we want to watch a movie.</p>

I want to get them before the bugs do. I used a fruit spray a couple of times. It's called Nutria I think.  It's safe for organic gardening and I think it really helped! <br>
   And then last night my one year old and I were out picking more before dark and before a storm with hail rolled in that night. He was a big helper... but he wanted to throw them around too! We picked two dozen more.<br>
And check out how far our tree is leaning over!<br>
   What do you like to make with peaches?  We have an abundance, I love them all by themselves.</p>

Chili cheese fries recipe, made at home. That's what we had for lunch today. This frugal, pregnant mama has been craving them for days. I wanted them a few nights ago, but didn't have the ingredients, or energy to go to the store. Then I wanted them for lunch, right after I got off work. But I had to go straight home, so I couldn't stop by the store. So... I got the stuff this morning when Little Man and I went grocery shopping. It's so easy!<br />
Recipe follows at the end. <br />

Preheat oven to 400. Spread the fries out on a silpat lined cookie sheet, or crinkle aluminum foil and put fries on that. Bake as directed on package.<br />
Heat the chili up on the stove. (The beans tend to explode in the microwave.)<br />

Pour 1/3 c. to 1/2 c. Cheesy Ragu Double Cheddar sauce into a microwaveable measuring cup. Heat 20 seconds, stir, heat 25 seconds. And then it's ready to pour over top your fries and chili!<br />

I made this today because it's feeling like summer and citrus water is always refreshing. I'm also pregnant and have to drink like a gallon of water a day... so... plain old water is getting boring.</div>

Step 1: Entertain the toddler. Put him in the highchair and gave him an organic pear.<br />
Step 2: Slice the orange and cut off the rind. My oranges were not organic and the rind looked quite sad.<br />

A simple recipe that toddlers can easily help with! This is a recipe from my childhood. It's one my mom used to make. Actually I think I remember her and my dad making these to eat with their movie after us kids went to bed. They ate them with jalapenos, which actually sounds good! I love the sweet jalapenos. Mmmm.</div>

That-a-way the sweet frosting hits your tongue first instead of the graham cracker. This idea then made me think of The Butter Battle Book by Dr. Seuss. Butter side up or butter side down? I can't remember why they were fighting but regardless of all that, frosting side down is great! <br>
Frosted graham crackers aren't usually in my diet... but I'm pregnant. And these were a fun treat I always liked to eat when I was little- especially with sprinkles on it!<br>
P.S.- this works for other sweet things like donuts.</p>

Why!?<p dir="ltr">My son pulled over my jewelry armoire and so my jewelry got all mixed up. I've finally gone through it and actually cleaned it out. Please tell me why I've held onto these little stud earrings for 10 years? I don't plan on wearing little ladybug studs or flowers. And they're all tarnished!</p>
<p dir="ltr">What are you holding onto? What are you putting off going through? I just know cleaning out is a very nice feeling.</p>

Sportin' his big boy undies!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Today was a nice relaxing day. I didn't have to work and we didn't have to run any errands so we spent the day at home. My son is 17 months old now and keeps me on my toes. He loves to play, loves wrestling with our dogs and he even helped me make pancakes this morning for Daddy and us. But! The most awesome thing that happened today is that he wore big boy undies all day today and had no accidents! Way to go buddy! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This is the first day that he's done this in big boy undies. He's been wearing them since he was 15 months old but we've also been using cloth diapers with the liner on the outside(not in the pocket) so that he feels the wetness. I change it right when it gets wet, even if it's just barely wet. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We've been using the potty with him since he was 3 1/2 months old (since November just over a year ago). It might seem crazy but our little guy has done awesome! And we've saved so much money in not needing so many diapers over the past year and a half. Not going to lie, it's lots of work but it's worth it! It helps that my husband is 100% on board.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Anyways, here are some pictures from our day today. We have fun!</div>

A few weeks ago we started giving him stickers for going potty. As a toddler they become so excited about all the new things that he doesn't want to stop to go potty. As an incentive we've given him stickers. They work! Gotta do what works! However... I now find them laying around my house because I don't want to do a potty chart.</div>

**Another note about Elimination Communication/Infant Potty Training when your child gets older and you're still working on it: Once he started saying no when I asked if he needed to potty I believed him. I didn't take him even if I thought he needed to go. This is an important part of the process. It's not a potty pause, it's simply him learning for himself how long he can hold it. We had accidents. We had lots of wet pants. But he was figuring it out. He was learning that wet pants are no fun. Little kids are smart. We still get lots of "No No's" when we ask him, but he's also doing the potty sign and letting us know he has to go a lot more consistently.</div>

My son has found a new way to use these red striped popcorn "bags". He's been walking around the house with these on his hands, and I'm surprised he's wearing the baseball cap too! </div>

My husband and I celebrated the new year at a 1920's themed party. We had fun thrift store shopping for our outfits. My husband wanted to dress up like an old guy, and he stayed in character the whole night! He was making everyone laugh so hard!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So, with the new year I figured my blog needed some attention. A new look. I bet it's been feeling...well...a little neglected. I've tried to post often, and I have so many ideas for posts... but, I just don't post enough.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So, since everyone always has resolutions for the new year here is one for my blog: I promise to post something new every week. Maybe I'll even post two times, or three times! But let's not get carried away... Life gets busy right?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I promise to have at least one new post by Monday morning every single week.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love blogging, I really do, and my stash of pictures and ideas for blog posts is overflowing.</div>

We woke up this morning to snow falling to the ground. My husband worked late last night so he's sleeping. He's the one that loves driving in this stuff so we're staying home from church this morning. It's a wonderful day to relax. Sundays are our day of rest. That means doing very little housework and just enjoying our time. Right now I'm sipping hot tea, working on a crocheted blanket and watching my son play with his toys. It's so nice to slow down.</div>

It's a question us women ask a lot. We want to know if we look beautiful. I made this sign to go in the closet or next to the make-up table. Just a sweet reminder that we're beautiful and wonderfully created by God. If you see yourself as precious in God's sight then that beauty will be even more radiant in your outward beauty. Don't forget- you look beautiful! </p>
