I'm alive 3/29

It's been a crazy 2 weeks my friend.  First I was in the ER, followed by Avi getting an ear infection and allergy-induced asthma, followed by Mike getting the flu.  Now my mom and dad are in FL which leave me in charge of my grandmother's physical therapy runs, dr's appts, and my uncles appts since he just had his knee replaced.  BLAH!!!!! 

So, my eating habits haven't been the best.  On a side note though, I've at least been cooking dinner :)

Paleo Zucchini Bread

I just finished making this, it looks and smells good, I hope it will be delicious!

http://theprimalhome.blogspot.com/2011/09/grain-free-zucchini-bread.html

Tuesday & Wednesday

I have been teaching our YW to can salsa and so all I have been eating for the last two days is salsa & chips. Not very healthy and I am sure a HUGE amount of calories given that chips always do. And, as I have been buried in tomatoes and various other activities, my tracking has been non-existent. Hopefully I will get back on the wagon today.

Hope you guys are well! When are you coming to DE?

Oh yeah, and I went to the Grand Opening of Whole Foods, it was a beautiful thing! I honestly believe Whole Foods is what Heaven will be like.

Didn't count my intake today as I was lazy in tracking:

Breakfast = Steel Cut Oatmeal
Lunch = Avocado & Animal Crackers
Dinner = Hummus, Toast, Honey Chicken, Mustard Greens, Carrots, Rosemary Fries, Carrot Juice, Pomegranate Juice & Kiwi

Yeah, we had people over for dinner we all ate a huge variety and it turned out awesome! I will post the links to the recipes later.

Sooooo....

You would not believe this, but I have checked our blog EVERY DAY since the 5th and NOTHING was showing up from you.  So, I just assumed you were still volunteering or gardening or something and I didn't want you to feel bad so I stopped updating.  So, today, when I checked it there were like 6 or 7 posts all from you in a row.  BLAH!!  Sometimes the internet is so dumb.

BUT, I'm totally NOT going to update for today, I was sooooo bad.  I do have a question for you though.  Aviana is so weird.  She likes her "big girl" food.  She enjoys chewing and all that.  BUT she will NOT usually eat more than 10 bites of anything.  It's so strange.  Especially since, even though she's refusing food, she is screaming at me because she wants to nurse.  And then, she'll go DAYS without having any solid foods and she'll only nurse.  He doctor is totally fine with it, but it drive me nuts!! I've actually resorted to buying those organic yo-baby yogurts, even though they have sugar in them and I HATE that, but she eats them, and since they have both a veggie and a fruit I at least know she's getting something in her tummy.

She LOVES:
green beans, peas, carrots, cauliflower, squash, chicken, pork, beef, pasta, bread, cheerios, baby oatmeal, rice, apples, pears, peaches....kinda.   Yo-baby yogurt

1-bite:
Avocado (she must think they taste like soap too), peaches (normally), again I'm sure there are more

Funny moment:  The other night I gave her a whole-raw piece of cauliflower, just to see what she would do.  She loved it.  I don't think she actually got to eat any of it since it was all over her face, but it really was hilarious. 

I'm sure there are more, but those are the foods she'll actually open her mouth for without fussing tooooooo much.

Thoughts?

Sunday (3/4)
First time fasting since I was pregnant, it sucked, I was starving
Dinner - Turkey Breast, potatoes, carrots, broccoli, rolls, salad, birthday cake

We too are completely out of food in the house, I really need to go shopping, but have no car today and I really just don't want to spend the money. We haven't even done our monthly run to Costco yet, so we are really out of EVERYTHING!

Good luck this week!

whoops...I did manage to chug some apple juice at some point today.


Truth  be told we are 100% out of everything in our house.  No veggies, no fruit, no milk, almost no bread or meats....it's pretty bad.  Maybe I'll give myself a vacation and leave Avi at home with Mike tomorrow and go to the store. 
Part 2 to all that is that since she's sick, Aviana has been refusing to nap.  I spend my entire day sitting on the floor trying to distract her from the snot I have to wipe off her face/suck out from her nose and the diapers I have to change due to her snot-induced diarrhea.   Being a mom is so fun.  :)

~Carrots are cut~ :)

Veggie Ideas

Here are a few ideas of how to get more veggies into your diet:

1) When Avi is asleep, wash and cut up a ton of carrots and celery sticks, store in your fridge in water, any time you are hungry, open the fridge and grab a few sticks...you can do this with radishes as well

2) Buy lettuce and/or other greens, wash them as soon as you buy them, cut them up and store in a ziplock bag with a wet piece of paper towel, use handfuls for super quick salads, if it is chard or kale or spinach, you can cook it up in just a few minutes, cook it with VOO or coconut oil, salt & pepper. Throw it in the pan with your eggs and it will cook down perfectly

3) Batch cooking - when you have time, cook up a ton of veggies like turnips and/or cauliflower, mash it like mash potatoes and store in your fridge, this is a great way to get in a ton or veggies, replace for mashed potatoes. Cook large amounts all at once, and work your way through them throughout the week

4) Puree carrots and use it in the place of sweeteners in soups, muffins, sauces

I pretty much try to throw veggies into every meal, even breakfast.

Good luck!

On a side note I had an enormous salad today with loads of veggies :)
I'm hoping to make a pilgrimage to DE in March, hopefully we can play.

I have made it to the gym......

Back on the Wagon

I can't even remember what I ate last week, all I know is that I pretty much didn't eat Saturday & Sunday, I assume I get additional calories burned as well as negative food calories for puking.

As I puked all weekend, I figured it is a great time to weigh in. :-) I am pretty certain I will go back up once I start eating again, but hey, let's celebrate the little things!

Allouette is a year old today and I am two pounds lighter then when I got pregnant with her.

Weight = 148

Hooray!

Goals for the week:

1 - I don't think I will make it to the gym today, my morning walk pretty much wiped out my energy, but I hope to make it there Tuesday-Friday.

2 - Get back on my fertility diet....again, ugh.

3 - Eat breakfast every day before 9am.

Weight check in
So I had my annual girly exam today and I about fell off the scale. 143! That's only 3 pounds away from my pre pregnancy weight! So, I guess my new weight goal is to get to my wedding weight. Ha! 120, I can dream right?

Goals for tomorrow:
1) clean bathrooms.
2) some workout DVD since the YMCA is out until avi is 100% better
3) visiting teaching
4) girls night out is at 8pm. I'm hoping I can find a sitter

Thank you for your kind words. It is amazing what food, sleep, a shower and a loving husband who takes a day off work can do for a person. I thank you for your unfailing friendship. It means so much to me.

Thinking About You.

I am glad you told me! It is nothing to be embarrassed about, so many women deal with some level of ppd, those damn hormones. :-) Just keep moving forward, sister. Months ago I had a friend that was also having a difficult time with ppd, and she said the best thing she did to get through it was to plan one goal to achieve and one activity to do every day, for example, her goal would be to get up and take a shower and her activity would be going to the library. Simple little things that she could build her day around. She spent months working on just doing those two things each day and once she felt like she could conquer a goal and an activity, she went up to two goals and two activities, she continued like that until she made it out of the woods.

Seriously, if you are sad, think to yourself, "self, today I will not be sad, today I will be awesome" and no matter how much you feel like crap, just keeping telling yourself that you will be awesome.

Being a mom & a wife is tough stuff, and no one expects you to be perfect, all we can do is try, sometimes we will fall short, but that's life, you got to keep on moving.

Going under

So in all honesty I probably wouldn't be telling u this if mike wasn't making me. I've been struggling with ppd since Avi was born and this week I hit an all time low. Mike wanted me to tell you so you wouldn't think I had abanded you. I am hoping I can keep up with the blog this week but right now I'm just trying to keep up with life. I promise to return soon!!! Keep blogging and beat that cold sister!!!

Still no idea, I know I have had about 36oz, but not exactly sure.

Can you believe how many calories are in corn? Totally shocking! Looks like I need to be more mindful about leaving corn out of our meals.

Goals for next week:
This is going to be a super tough week to stay on my diet, as I have days filled with cooking for Autumn's baby shower on Thursday and then Allouette's birthday party on Saturday. I kid you not, full days of cooking super yummy things, I just don't know how I am going to do it. I am really hoping/planning to make it to the gym Monday-Friday, but it is going to be tough! Additionally, with the weather being so cold out here, I don't think morning walks are going to be happening. We usually don't make it if it is below 28(ish), and so all in all, this is not a very promising week. That means you will have to do SUPER good, to count for the both of us!

Good Luck!

I really have no idea, I am sure it was less than 22oz

So clearly there is a HUGE gap in there from my pitiful breakfast to my super yummy dinner. I usually miss meals when working on the house, they just seem to get pushed to the side. I am sure there are a few things I am missing, like bites here and there while I am making meals for Allouette, but I really can't remember it at this point.

Where, Oh Where, Has Ashley Been?

Sorry! I am way behind! Learon and I have been crazy busy this weekend. We finished painting our hallways and upstairs landing and we finished building our pallet buffet table for the dining room, plus we got started on these old windows that I am turning into mirrors, it has been a very productive weekend in the Bird House! To be honest, the entire weekend now feels like a blur. I also taught in YW today and so with prep, painting and building, Saturday & Sunday completely disappeared. I did however squeeze in some time to make a test batch of Allouette's cinnamon roll pumpkin pancakes for her big birthday party next week and they turned out awesome! I am sure they have about a million calories, I will have to try and calculate that next.

So, there you have it, your blogging buddy has not disappeared, just worked until well after mid-night on Saturday and is just now is getting a chance blog. Stay tuned, I am going to try and catch up.

Yeah, I ate so horribly today. I full blame it on play group as we do a pot luck each week and this week people pretty much only brought junk food. Since the day started off so horribly, I decided that it would be my Mardi Gras day and so we had pizza for dinner. Total junk, I tell ya. Also missed the morning walk as it was 18 degrees this morning and that is a little too cold for Allouette!

 

I did however stay the course for my goal to go to the gym Monday - Friday, so that is huge! I really did not want to go today, but I did and I am so proud of myself!

 

Have a really great weekend!

Super proud of you for buying all the fruits and veggies, now the trick is to eat them up before they go bad. ;-)

Not sure about a cabbage recipe, I usually saute mine in butter, yum!

 

On a side, that baby of yours has teeth, just give her the lasagna cut into smaller pieces and let her go crazy, she will love it. Allouette has been eating non-mashed food for months now, and she barely has one tooth, it will save you time and excess energy just let it cool and cut it up into smaller pieces.
