It's starting to look a lot like Christmas

We got our Christmas tree up finally and our son seems to like it. We decided on an artificial tree this year and we are already missing the smell of a real one. Thank goodness for scentsy and the festival of trees smell (https://ramelle.scentsy.us/Scentsy/Buy/ProductDetails/RS-FOT) we just spray it on our tree and BAM smells like Christmas ;) What kind of tree do you use in your house if/when you have toddlers? Real or Fake?

Now it's time to add the ornaments and wrap the presents. We got my son a Mickey doll from the Disney store that is almost the same size as him and I am so excited for him to see it, especially since I know his greatest joy will come from the wrapping paper and boxes everything else is in. If only everyone was so easy to shop for!

We will be hosting our 2nd annual Christmas party next weekend and I will be making an assortment of pinterest inspired gifts for people to take home, I am so excited about it actually. This is on the top of my list:

However I will make it a little more adult inspired and add a bottle of Baileys or Kahlua to mix with the hot chocolate... YUM.

The most important meal of the day

We are giving little one more solid's for breakfast now and he's loving most of them. The thing is I used to HATE breakfast (up until like a few days ago), but I know to succesfully lose weight I have to eat it. We do alot of egg whites, veggies, lean proteins (turkey bacon) and fruits.

Little one and I are pretty much all healed up from our sicknesses, he's still got a little bit of runny nose and I've got some congestion but it's 90% better! However the man of the house is now battling a sinus infection. This morning little one and I got up and had a breakfast date.

• The plate on the left is mine (obviously) It includes eggs, organic strawberries and whole wheat English muffin. I do two egg whites and one yolk for my eggs I do not add any salt/butter/milk.

• Picture on the right is little man being excited he had Van's Wheat-Gluten Free Cinnamon French toast and about 4 organic strawberries cut up!

I LOVE the Van's Products, I get mine at Safeway but I'm sure they have them everywhere they are SO flavorful the cinnamon toast tastes EXACTLY like normal cinnamon toast however it is much thinner. Here is a picture of the box (so if you are interested in it you can keep an eye out):

you can also check out the other foods Van's has and check out the nutritional info on their site (click on the picture of the box and it will take you there).

So that was breakfast, after the man of the house got up we all took Strummer (our dog) out and ran around the green belt outside. Arizona weather is finally cooling down, we can definitely handle the 90 degree temps and later we will spend some more time outside and possible go adopt a beta fish!

Happy Humpday

To those who aren't into Thursday yet! Sorry for the lack of posts and updates this week as been hectic, work has been busy, my work at home job with It Works has been super busy and my son is getting in two new teeth! So needless to say it's been a little chaotic!

BUT it's almost the weekend! My dad is coming to town to visit us and hopefully we can get some of my son's pictures done to send with his invitations! I've found a couple gluten free bakeries to do his smash cake, that's really the only thing I'll be spending money on, everything else will be D.I.Y!

What did you do for your kid's first birthday? Low Key or All Out?


On that note I wanted to leave you with some amazing results one of my customer's experienced recently, only three weeks of using our products and her body has changed dramatically:

Check the products out see what interests you, ask questions. These products work I know from first hand experience, I use It's Vital daily, I use the defining gel about every other day and I try to use the ultimate body applicators "wraps" if I have them on hand.
