To give thanks

Yup, this is about how I felt this afternoon after our gigantic meal for our tiny family of 3 (which Elliot ate NONE of).  *Sigh* Got to love 2-year-olds!


Thankful for family, friends, good food, good wine and our health! To name a few :-)

Next challenge!

I completed 21 Day Fix this past Sunday and began LIIFT4 the very next day.  No rest for the wicked! I'm loving it so far.  It's only 4 days a week and no more than 40 minutes a day.   Weekends off, WHAT?!  But, not off nutrition wise.  Still sticking to the portion fix plan.  And I can tell a lot of changes in my body and my body reacts very well to eating clean, which I suppose everyone's would.  I do treat myself from time to time with some wine or a light beer and we did just go out for pizza the other night.  Everything in moderation.  Today's breakfast was vanilla Shakeology with chai tea, chia seeds, cinnamon, and half a banana. Remember if you ever want to join me drop me a line over to the right and I'll be in touch!👉👉👉

Plus I get to go to lunch with my dear friend who I love having lunch with because we can relate to a lot of the same things. Guess that is why we are friends! As the week comes to a close I like to reflect on what has happened during last 5 days. It's crazy how so many ups and downs occur in such a small time frame. No major occurrences (thank goodness) but, one that make you stop and think where you are. This week I discovered that one of my co-workers in my department is expecting. I still don't know why I have the feelings that I do.I should be happy for the ones around me, but I still feel some sort of jealousy. I want so bad to feel excited and happy ...

Hip Dysplasia

At Elliot's 3rd well baby visit her pediatrician discovered a click in her left hip.  He said that it could be nothing, but we should get it checked out and he referred us to an orthopedic surgeon at a children's hospital 3 hours away.   We had our first appointment with the orthopedic surgeon at the end of July and sure enough he diagnosed her with left hip dysplasia.  He assured us it was a common thing and can be treated.  The first step in our treatment plan was a Pavlik Harness.          This is the actual picture shown on the packaging of the harness.  Me and my husband thought "well that baby is happy, it can't be that bad"...wrong!  The nurse put it on her and she screamed her head off the whole way through!  Then they decided that one was too small and took it off and put a bigger one on her.  Oh, it was terrible she was screaming, I was crying.  The doctor and nurse kept telling me that it wasn't hurting ...
