Conversations with a 3 year old

Here are some conversations recently overheard in our house:

Last Sunday, we're on our way to church when we see a couple of police cars.
"Mommy, where are those police men going?" - Lucas
"To tell the cars where to go, buddy" - Mommy
"But who is going to get the bad guys?" - L

Fast forward 10 minutes, we're inside the church getting the kids checked in when Lucas sees a policeman nearby. Running up to him, Lucas says
"Hi Mr. Policeman! What are you doing here? Do you get rid of the bad guys?"
The nice man, says that yes he does, and Lucas says, "Good, because there's a bad guy in there (pointing to a nearby room) and you need to go get him!"

**********************************************************

At Outback that night, we're celebrating Matt's Dad and brother's birthdays. Matt takes Lucas to the potty and Lucas runs back to the table saying "I did it! I teeteed in the stand up potty! The one on the wall! I liked that!"

**********************************************************

"Mommy, I can't tee tee in the potty anymore." "Why not buddy?" "Because it isn't special anymore." "It isn't special? Why not" "Because you eat my M&Ms Mommy!"

Outback quote is my favorite. Michael thinks we should get a urinal for Matthan's bathroom so he can just use that and not worry about "aim" quite as much! :)

Baby steps

Guess what? I'm taking steps today to get just a little closer to my dream. We're off to the gym in a little bit to keep working towards losing those 38 pounds. I'm also working on a plan to sell specialty homemade cheesecakes during the holidays. Doing something I love and making some extra money for the people I love. Pretty great stuff!

Special K

I have developed a rather fond relationship with Kellogg's Special K Vanilla Almond. Low in fat (only 1.5 g) and made with whole grains, I eat this tasty treat as a meal and a snack. I'm eating some right now. Special thanks to Kat for introducing me to this delightful cereal. Our local Ingles has been running it on sale this past week, 2 for $4, so I stocked up. The milk is even on sale too, 2 for $5, making this treat yummy and affordable. Sweet, crispy flakes and crunchy almonds. What more could a girl ask for. By the way, you should go to Ingles. Everything is on sale. I picked up some lean ground beef today for $1.38 per pound. Now that's good for the budget. Low prices + good food = happy housewife

Let's go shopping at Aldi's!

If you're shopping at Aldi's this week, I recommend that you stock up on Eggs and Milk! Seriously, a dozen eggs for $1.09 and Milk for $2.19! The price of beef may have gone up, but I'm loving the other staples we get from a cow! I bought 4 dozen eggs this week. Overkill for sure, but when our family eats eggs, we usually eat 7 in one setting! Eggs and toast are a staple breakfast in our house - we eat that at least 4 times a week! It's fast and filling and cheap! If you're looking for something more exciting to do with your eggs, try making a breakfast casserole! I love this casserole from Ree, the Pioneer Woman. Everything she makes is delightful, but this recipe is especially great! As with most recipes, I tweaked it a bit to fit our tastes. For all of his perfect aspects, my handsome husband does not eat mushrooms. This could have been a deal breaker for me 13 years ago, but then I saw his drummer toned legs and I decided to look past his misjudgment! No ...
