Oh Sunday's

Oh how I love Sunday's!!!
Early morning peace as I get ready for church as my boys sleep soundly.
Snuggling sweet babies in the nursery.
Stuffing my face with Uncle Julios...oh there is nothing better tasting. (yes..I did break the eating habits today but I just couldn't resist! Homemade flour tortillias with butter...can't be denied)
Sunday afternoon nap
Waking up to my sweet husband telling T not to wake mommy...I had been asleep for 2 hours
Oh how I love that man!!! He is so good to me!!!
Snuggled in bed with my boys watching the cowboys...not a better way to end the day!

Put down the signs

Finally back blogging world!! Oh how I've missed you! These last few weeks have been down right crazy around The Moseley house. It is starting calm down just a bit. I have so many things to catch you up on. First things first ....the strike is over! If you have no idea as to what that means let me give you a quick explanation. We are on year 2 month 9 of trying to make a baby. Yes we have succeed 4 times but all ended in miscarraige. After each miscarriage I normally go on strike! Yes you can laugh! I get so tired of being all healthy and taking 2 handfuls of pills everyday. So I stop taking my vitamins and start shoving handfuls of raw cookie dough down my throat. So I've decided that all that cookie dough is probably not that great for the health and really not good for the backside. With all of that being said yesterday was Day 1 of the lifestyle change. I'm going to try my hardest to not drink caffine...yes I'm a little worried Starbucks and Sonic might go under without my daily contribution. I'm already missing my White Chocolate Mocha and Vanilla Dr.Pepper :( I'm going to avoid all processed foods and stick to eating fresh fruits and vegetables. No..I'm not doing this in hopes of lossing weight. I am very happy with my weight. It just needs to be toned up a bit. As I have slacked off and haven't worked out in 2 months. I am doing this in hopes of having more energy, having a healthier body inside and out and changing my families eating habits. I'm going to blog everyday what I eat to keep myself accountable. Soon enough it will be a lifestyle and I won't have to worry about it anymore.

Day 1

Breakfast:1 cup vanilla yogurt w/ a handful of fresh blueberries and organic almond vanilla granola

Lunch: 2 cups steamed brocolli and a handful of cherry tomatoes

*Tristen ate the same thing for breakfast and lunch. He has always been a good eater because I never gave him another choice.

Afternoon snack: snack bag of baby carrots, 1 graham cracker with peanut butter (YesI know graham crakers are processed...I said I would TRy).

Dinner: Salad and lots of salad, I picked the brocolli out of the chicken alfredo and took a few bites of the bow tie pasta. At this point of the day I was literally starving for real food but I did not give in!

Bedtime snack: Tristen and I shared 2 peaches...they were so sweet and yummy! 2 more cups of steamed brocolli. If you haven't noticed yet...I love brocolli!

Lots of water!!!

I did end the day with a pounding headache as my body was going in shock without it's daily coffee and sugar.

Whew!!!! Day 1 down many many more to go!
