Veggies

When Brogan was a baby he ate anything and everything we would give him...but, now he eats when he wants and what he wants. I'm pretty sure he runs the show when it comes to eating. I can NOT get him to eat any "veggies" with the expectation of corn...which sadly is just like his MOTHER! I'm not a fan of anything green...but, lettuce and I'm picky about that too. So, I read an article in my Parent's magazine about the things we can do to help make sure you children get the veggies and fruits they need. One of them was the new V8 Fusion juice...so, I thought what the heck. It can be very expensive, but I have been lucky to get a couple of coupon's for it and WalMart seems to be the cheapest...So, this is my new fave thing for Brogan right now! He loves it! I have bought most of the flavors and he loves them all. So, as we work on the veggies, I will let him drink this once a day...

Time to catch up!

I'm very behind on things lately.  I started school in April and it seems all the little things have been pushed back.  I have a million things to do before my Mom gets here and before summer gets here and our free time is spent in the pool!  I have a feeling that Brogan is going to be a "fish" this summer, hence the wanting to take a bath every 5 minutes.  The weather is finally getting nice here, the past week it has been sunny and beautiful!  I feel bad for Brogan because we have been inside a lot....see I have been studying for mid-terms!  But, after this week...We will be free to go swim, go the park, go to play dates and go take our trips to Target to spend money on things we "don't" really need, but just can't pass up!  So bare with me the next couple of days as I catch you up on what is going on with us.

Beach.Sand.Wind.

Mother's Day weekend we decided to take a short trip over to the coast. This was Brogan's 2nd time to the beach...First time was when he was 3 months old. He wasn't to sure of the sand, or the wind...and then of the ocean. He just told in one spot and said "Mom"...which seems to be his favorite word at the moment!!!  Here are a few pictures!  We are hoping to take many more trips this summer so he starts to like it!  Plus, I need to get some more pictures of the kids together!

As you can see it was windy!  But, very pretty!  The West coast is nothing like the East coast or the "beaches" in Florida...which ONE day we will take the kids to see!
