chocolate, strawberry, vanilla...

or even greenberry, yum!  chocolate is my favorite, add some pb2 and you have yourself a reese peanut butter cup packing you full of over 75 super foods and you daily, dense, dose of nutrition.  that is my kind of goodness!                       shakeology is a daily dense dose of nutrition of over 75 super foods that your body would never get with just a regular clean eating diet.  not only is it packing you full of those super foods, it will give you more energy, reduce cravings and your body will start to crave shakeology more because it will crave those super foods.  after drinking it for 3-5 days you will feel the difference. it is a meal replacement, so you replace one meal a day with it, whatever is most convenient for you. i have mine for breakfast each day, then i know i have started my day off right.  it comes out to about $4 per day for shakeology, so that is about what you would have spent on the meal.

last but not least

this girl, the one who made me a mom for the first time.  i just love her,  her talking back sass her mood swings her sarcastic comments, i have no cue where she gets them from her funny self this girl hangs out with me and watches house hunters, so fun! i gotta say it is the highlight of my week when she lays in bed with me and we watch shows.  she is a beast and i wonder what happen to my sweet little baby, oh wait, she was never little!  i am always the first to say that i hate the fact my kids are getting older, i love those baby years.  but i do love how this girl is growing up, and i am kind of liking the middle school years, so far.  i like the conversations we have and the funny stories she shares with me. i like her figuring things out on her own and just as equally seeing disappointment in her life.   i am grateful that this girl is paving the way for her siblings.  she has opened my eyes to so many experiences we have learned about together.  i am luc

the boy

first, don't judge me on my blogging frequency or lack there of.  if you want to judge me do so because i just sat down to write this post with a spoon and a half gallon of moose tracks ice cream. fyi i poured chocolate syrup right over it in the container. why dirty a bowl, right? tomorrow is beta for t25, so i am on a splurge… back to the family picture sessions. this boy… secretly, just because my kids don't read this, he is my favorite. i know, i know, everyone says they do not have a favorite, that is just because they don't want to say they do. he is mine.                                                      i think it is because he is my only boy, he just has his way.  he has always had his way since the minute i laid eyes on him and he pooped right on that dr. nice lady, i felt bad.                                         he is 9 … i mean 10, going through that awkward stage but the past 2 years have been big for him.  he has grown and stepped up in so

Jesse 6 going on 16...

part 2 of the family pictures. today is J, my sassy, smart, sweet when she is sleeping gal.  this girl keeps me on my toes, like keeps my patience in check. when i loose it, she has pushed me over the edge with what she wants to wear.  if she had her way she would be in sparkles, glimmer, tank tops and shorty shorts every day. and her hair…i can't even go into it, every single day her hair is a battle. i try and i try to get her to embrace the curls, each day she stands in front of the mirror brushing her hair straight down. each morning she has me flat iron her hair, so you say why do you do it?  the battle is just not worth it! my j bird is her own girl and that is the best part about her.   she loves her sister, and is so good with her. i just love seeing that sister bond formed.  grace and wyatt always have always been pals, and jesse is usually left out of that mix. j and mae have that sister bond and i just love watching  them together and building that sist

Mae Mae

i have been wanting to share the pictures we had taken in August but decided to do so in sections because there are so many and i LOVE them all!  amy has taken the kids pics a several times but my most favorite when was mae mae was 1 week old here she is three years later!   this girl is a nut! i don't remember the other ones being this nutty or it may be more as she gets away with everything because we all just think she is funny and adorable of course.  i want to freeze time to her personality now, but since i cannot amy did an amazing job of capturing this spit fire!!                                         this is her 'i am the cutest and get away with everything smile'.                                        this is her 'yeah, i all sit here and have my picture taken' and this one is my favorite… her slumpy, sitting like a perfect lady (not) got my red boots on my personality is shining through pose!  these chubby little
