Nap Update

My "new" nap plan didn't work. At all. Apparently Lucas isn't ready to handle the freedom of the timer. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

ouch. that really stinks. i was talking to meredith about this topic yesterday, as she is having similar problems with her 3.5 year old. what time is his nap? have you tried no toys at all in his bed? just a blanket and pillow? or he can pick one toy to bring to bed to snuggle with, but if you have to come back in his room to resettle him you will take it away? sorry you are discouraged... i know all too well what that is like! but remember, it often takes 2-3 times of trying something new for them to realize you mean business! please don't remind me a year from now that i said that! ;-)

Oh no! I was hoping it would go great so that I would have some of your tips to try. We are having so much trouble with Matthan getting out of bed over and over again. Sorry to hear it didn't work, wish I had some wonderful advice to offer but I am at a loss as well.

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 ...
