Jayden and his friend Andrew at field day.

Julianna at field day! They were doing a water balloon toss. The coaches daughter has been so helpful and kind with Julianna! And to the left you can see Jayden pushing his buddy around. Still working on keeping his hands to himself!

Happy Birthday Jayden! 3/24/12

Jayden got way to much birthday money this year! He bought a bey blade arena and a bunch of bey blades to go with it. The rest of the money was saved for Universal Studios, Harry Potter World!

Jayden had a birthday filled with Pokemon, his favorite at the moment!

Bowling 3/21/12

Finally took Julianna bowling for the first time. We went with the kids homeschool group. So glad they had these awesome racks that she could push the ball off of. I pretended to let her carry the ball to it with my hand underneath. I was terrified she was going to drop it on her foot!!!

Juli had a friend sleepover 3/15/12

One of Julianna's good friends, Sydeny spent the night and the girls were very silly with the camera. Sydney's mom Ana got them matching PJ's! They both had so much fun. Unfortunately Sydney moved to California! We miss them so much!

My Menu Plan for March

Most months I plan out a menu so I can buy all that I need with the exception of produce and dairy at the beginning of the month. I usually don't plan exactly what I make each day but it makes things easier if I have a few options each day and know that all things needed are in the kitchen already. We rarely eat out so it's nice to have choices for dinner. We eat a lot of Mexican style foods! This is my list for shopping purposes for the month of March and it is in no order! I also leave a few "empty" nights for leftovers! Many days the kids and I eat leftovers for lunch. I don't usually plan sides since I never know what will be in my farmers market basket each week!

Julianna and the dog 2/19/12

These two are always crawling on each other. We really got a great dog!

Holy Moly Cloth

My mom gets excited about some products and insists on sending them to me. Sometimes they end up at the back of the cabinet and I forget about them. This is what happened with a product she sent me last month called the Holy Moly cloth. It was time to wash windows and doors yesterday and I found this under the sink and decided to finally give it a try.

I was shocked at what a great job it did! Took off all the muddy dog prints off the glass door and window as well as all the grease spots that were on my kitchen window! Last night I was cleaning out dry erase books for the kids and the cloth did a great job.

What I love the most is that they are odorless and non-toxic so I feel safe letting the kids use them to clean! Plus there were no streaks!
