Project 365. Pics 30-33. And supper for kids
There is so much talk of health and nutrition these days. Perhaps due to the new year or just more and more people realize the importance of a healthier lifestyle. I've been making small changes lately (thx to blogs, mentor Robin and motivating friends) and think it's important to share ideas! Hence this blog!
When my husband works late, I typically don't cook. I heat up food - mostly processed. But in an effort to change, I've been going to the store more regularly for fresh fruit and vegetables. Supper tonight was simple... cut up cantaloupe, deli turkey meat, cottage cheese (kids 1st time) and left over beans and rice. I didn't have the turkey but a baked potato with cottage cheese on it instead. And can I tell you how successful (meaning they didn't pick and actually ate a good amount) it was! Vienna liked cottage cheese! And Lance ate one bite in exchange for gum following supper. I'm just happy he tries new things and he ate everything else. They ate all their fruit thanks to the toothpicks I gave them. When they have fun tools to eat with, it seems they eat more. So that is my tip for young children who can handle the pointy sticks.
And that is pic# 30 in my project 365.

Project 365. Pic# 29. A card!
I really love going to the card group at my church. Linda is the leader and she sends the cards we make out to people for all sorts of reasons: get well, sympathy, baby dedication, etc. It is so much fun to gather with ladies who love paper as much as me! Next time we gather, we are doing a card swap which I have never done before. We have make 15 identical cards and then we come home with an assortment. (Like a cookie swap). I finished my card and LOVE LOVE LOVE the colors. Here is it:

Project 365. Pics 17, 18 & 19.
Catch up time again! Life if flying by. I can't even keep track of things anymore. Rely on my planner more than ever now.
So here are some random shots from the past couple days.
Toys toys toys... EVERYWHERE! That is the biggest constant in my life. I love the little figurines the kids have. I think these guys are just so cute!
Right now I am on my main desk computer in my office. This is where all my photos and docs are stored. But during the day I typically surf the web on my netbook. But it's been taken over by some other force. Couple things we gotta to do but time isn't our friend this week. Jay working lots so fixing it is on hold. I don't speak computers so I need my man to help. My facebook/email time will be limited til I get that fixed. Not really a bad thing!

Project 365. Pics 14, 15 & 16.
Photo 14 - My doggie Lopsi again. Because I love her and because she loves the sun and because she has one eye and great fur. She is fun to photograph. I love her big Gizmo ears.

Photo 15 - My princess creeping up the stairs. I took this after taking pics of Lopsi. Vienna was just going upstairs to play.
Photo 16 and a tip. I know I shared my 'jewelry on a bulletin board' thing before but I did it a little better after moving into this new house. I covered a cork board in Christmas paper with the plain side showing. Then I put a layer of tulle over the whole thing so I could hook my earrings on it next to the necklaces they go with. I used straight pins with the little balls on the end rather than tacks and finally I organized my jewelry by color so it's pleasing to the eye. Ta da!
