At dinner tonight, my dad said, “I hope your post tomorrow is better than the one today.” Gee, thanks. What can I say? My life is pretty boring right now.
I love getting samples in the mail. Kashi sent me a tiny box of this cereal last week:
So I decided to have it for breakfast this morning, along with sliced strawberries.
The cereal was just okay. I like the cinnamon- but it just wasn’t filling at ALL. I was starving by lunchtime.
My mom brought their dog, Sophie, over here to hang out this morning. The idea is that Sophie and Chloe can play, but really all that happens is that Chloe tries to hump Sophie and they both bark at the cat. Needless to say it was a FUN morning.
Lunch was (surprisingly) delicious. Leftover roasted veggies, along with a MSF chick patty on an Ezekiel english muffin- topped with goat cheese and jarred bruschetta topping ($1.88 at Sam’s!).
I couldn’t keep my spoon out of the bruschetta jar.
It was GORGEOUS out today, finally. Julie called to see if Jack and I wanted to meet them at the Arboretum. Um, heck yeah. I’m probably way too overeager when people invite us to do stuff during the day. The house gets boring and you can only walk around the mall so many times.
Poor little Jack. Being a December baby, he really hasn’t spent much time outdoors. Apparently he LOVES it.
We just plopped him on a blanket and he kicked his chubby little legs and talked to us.
Julie was cracking him up. I tried to get it on video- he coos and giggles at her a little at the beginning, until he notices me holding the camera and goes stone-faced. Please ignore the giant boogie hanging out of his nose (and excuse my stupid noises- a pathetic effort to get him to laugh).

I love this guy.
Let’s play Where’s Molly?
Gabe rode him a reindeer.
We ended up having dinner tonight at Alfonso’s. It’s really hard to be good there with the GIANT garlic rolls. I tried my best (1.5 rolls) and ordered the Calamari Marinara.
Yum. I swear, they have the best marinara sauce in Dallas. Too many restaurants serve watery tomato sauce.
PS- I’m on day 4 of level 2 of the 30 Day Shred. HOLY CRAP- walking pushups? She crazy.
PSS- Anyone know of good running shoes for flat feet??
That’s all I got. Hope this post was better, Dad. Night.
Dad’s have high expectations. I think for a new mom, you do a great job!!!
I’m on day 3 of level 1 shred! AHHHHHHH did you have pain in your heels???
No, no heel pain- but my knees were (and actually still are) sore!
The Shred is awesome but I was sore for days when I first started. Keep it up!
Too much cuteness! His dimples are outrageous. My niece Shiloh also is just starting to get to see the sun!
I have the flattest feet ever and am a big runner. I run in Asics Gel GT-2140. Not the cutest shoes ever, but they are good for running!
haha. my mom said the same thing the past few days. LOL.
i think all babies do that: stone cold when they see a camera.
i also agree about the kashi cinnamon. tastes good, but totally not filling.
I love how you go out to eat so much! So lucky!!
