How to make eating healthy fun!

Come the winter months, it gets easier to spend our days nestled in our homes next to the heater. We find ourselves watching more t.v. than usual and snacking on yummy seasonal treats. Don't forget the warm frothy drinks that are a must when the weather gets chilly! Although I love it all, I have a feeling come the bikini wearing months I will deeply regret these high calorie decisions.

Eating healthy doesn't have to be a drag. It just means trading out the processed and sugary food for natural and fresh options. I find that the first things I must do is go to the grocery store and stalk my fridge with a variety of fresh fruit and veggies. Make it fun! One way to do just that is through smoothies and homemade juices. Conveniently, my friend Sarah just so happens to have a juicer. Along with this powerful machine of juicing goodness, came a booklet of recipes.

New year's day passed by without bothering to assign me a resolution, so come January 13th, Sarah and I decided to make ours the goal of trying each and every recipe in the juicing booklet at least once this year.

I'll keep you posted (literally I will post) on each of these adventures. Maybe you'll see something that looks worth trying out!

God Speaks Through Skinny Fingers

When I had Easton, I think he zapped such a large amount of calcium from my bones that my fingers shrunk. I have no medical knowledge to support this claim, but for whatever reason, all ten digits are significantly more slim. While I have no objection to daintier, more feminine hands, it does pose one problem: my wedding ring no longer fits. For awhile I tried wearing it regardless; but the first time I enthusiastically told a story, using my hands to talk, that circular symbol of unity went soaring. Cody inspected the situation and concluded that, yep, he would need to take it to get re-sized. He planned to visit the jeweler in Portland right away. I set my beautiful sparkly band, so familiar to my left ring finger, in it's little box for safe keeping. 'He won't be gone long,' I comforted my now naked ,tan-lined finger. Eight months later.... Not wearing my wedding ring wasn't doing it for me. First off, I got hit on several times by some creep...

PREGNANCY 101

Easton Alden Prescott We have been anxiously awaiting the arrival of our first son, Easton, for the past eight months. This adventure has been wonderful and exciting from the get-go! Here is a little synapses of our journey! My favorite part, so far, was telling Cody that he was going to be a Daddy-o. With some help from Robbie, I had him convinced that we were all going to the park to take some goofy pictures. Below are pictures of what he really found at our destination. I found a GREAT song for breaking the news to family or friends in a special way. While Cody opened the ring box, I played this in the background . When the message got across, Cody started to tear up, causing his eyes to become hidden behind to lenses of fog.-Adorable! ______________________________________________________ During the first couple of weeks there was little physical change happening. We spent our time getting used to th...
