21 pounds gone!

So stepping on the scale and seeing that much weight gone is a breath of fresh air!! I can't wait to be at my pre-thyroid/pregnancy weight again. I have been slacking the past two days. Yesterday I got my new iPhone!!! I waited in line for like two hours! Mikey was such a great boy! Sometimes I feel if I'm making others happy I tend to let myself be miserable. I really need to start working on it. Poor Mike is sick I pray he's feeling better tomorrow. My goals this week are:
1) Get 100,000 steps for the week Sun-Sun
2) Do 30 day Shred 3 or 4 times this week (hopefully everyday)
3) Start organizing one area in the house a day
4) Laundry! (At least 2 loads for each and towels)
5) Take my appetite suppressant all week I've been lame

Where does time go...

I really figured I'd be able to keep up with blogging haha. Oh well always behind. I've been spending so much time trying to figure out how to fix our finances and "get my steps in!" Weightloss is my #2 goal right now. Well, maybe #3. Right behind being an amazing wife and mom. I can't beleive my bug will be 13 months on the 24th! Oh well my recipe for tonight is simply amazing.
"Spagetti"
Ingredients:
1c cooked Spagetti squash
1/2c Spagetti Sauce (I'd make my own next time less sodium)
2tbs parmasan cheese

Mix. Serve. Done.

It was so good!

Disneyland :)

So yesterday now (Sunday) Mike and I took Mikey to Disneyland!! It was so much fun. Halloween decor has started to be hung! I'm so excited for it to cool down it is way too hot! Mikey is growing more and more each day, such a blessing to watch!
So quick run down. Saturday I visted my mom while mike cleaned the carpets here. She's doing so much better! I know she wishes she was completely healed but I can see so much of a difference already! Mikey had his first popsicle!
We went out Tio dinner with mikes parents Satuday night. Mikey was trying to get up and go the whole time haha. I finally took him outsidew

Busy bee

So, I was going to try to blog everyday but of course I fall behind. Just same old stuff in my neck of the woods. I finally finished cleaning my kitchen it only took me a week with all the dishes we add daily! I went threw bills I had been ignoring and another reality check for me. No more random spending. It's not too bad but we have a bunch of random Dr's bills from mike and my high risk ob. Funny my insurance covered all of my regular ob but because I had issues it cost a bunch. Today I started reading "she reads truth". I once was very religious and really need to get into my faith again. I'm excited to bring mikey up in the church it was a safe haven for me growing up. I figure a daily devotional will take up so little of my time. I'm so ready for fall weather. I want to start walking in the mornings again. I missed my walk today because Mikey was napping till dark. Enough ranting u hope you all have a wonderful day/night.

"No Peeking" Chicken


So today Mike cleaned while I ran around shopping. When I got home I wanted to make my mom and dad something easy to reheat with our destroying the cleaning already done. I made "no peeking chicken"! It was so easy and yummy I'll be making more soon!





Ingredients:

1 box Uncle Ben's Long Grain Wild Rice (original recipe)
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 can cream of celery soup
1 can water 
(You can add another can of water for moister rice.)
Chicken breasts or tenders



In a greased 9 x 13 pan, mix the box of rice, cans of celery and mushroom soup and 
one can of water.  I always add the extra can of water because I like moist rice.




Arrange the raw chicken on top of the rice mixture....


Cover and seal with foil......



Bake at 350 degrees for 2 1/2 hours and "Don't Peek!"

Your house will smell amazing!

Dinner and a show...

Today my mom came home from the hospital yay! She was only in over night! My sister and I cleaned up their house and I hung fall decorations to help cheer her up! Mike watched Mikey for me while I cleaned! Mike's mom and him stopped by to wish my mom well which I really appriciated. After Mike's mom, dad, Mike, Mikey, and I went to olive garden for dinner! It was a forever long wait and sure enough like a few minutes of the waitress being at the table her and mikes dad started a fight! She was so rude I wanted to leave. We stayed and the food was ok. After was bed time for mikey. All and all a really quick day. Nothing too exciting!

Mikey sleeping before we got seated!
