FREEZER MEAL!!Last week I made chicken pot pie and I had some extra pie crusts. So I started thinking what can I make for dinner without having to go to the store... PIZZA ROLLSEveryone needs a little pizza now and then.I love this because if you freeze the rolls in a tin you can literally pull them out of the freezer and into the oven and dinner is done!!This is also super fun for kids or picky eaters because you can make all different shapes and sizes.I always make my own marinara sauce but ...

2 under 2… Chapter 1 Warning! Rough morning ahead!!
That should have been a text message from the universe last night.Well, actually maybe the foreshadowing was my daughter throwing up all over herself and her daddy at bedtime. Bath time again! Strip the bed spread! Clean the floors!Baby boy slept through the night for the 4th night in a row...Baby girl, not so much. Every night that he has slept through the night, she likes to wake up at 2 am ready to partayyyyyy. She must think she is missing out on something but her brother is ... VIEW POST
A cure for constipated babies!!
When my daughter turned one and it was time to switch from formula to whole milk (YES! goodbye expensive formula!), she absolutely loved it!The only problem was that it seemed to make her constipated. Ugh. This was absolute torture. The worst feeling in the world is watching your baby in pain and not being able to do anything to help.

To cook or not to cook? That is the question!
I love to cook! I could cook all day long. It's the clean up that really sucks!But lately one of my biggest struggles with 2 under 2 is finding the time to feed myself. As much as I would love to fit into my skinny jeans, I keep reminding myself how important it is to eat enough and healthy choices because I am still pumping breast milk. And of course I need energy to run after these two rugrats.By the time I am done with the morning routine of changing two sets of diapers (sometimes two ... VIEW POST
Breastfeeding at the beach?!
Packing a cooler for a day at the beach sure has changed for me and my husband....For all my breastfeeding mommas on the move this summer, do you feel comfortable putting up a towel barricade to breastfeed your baby?I am a strictly breast pumping mom at this point so I am packing a cooler of frozen breast milk to take with me! There are no outlets at the beach so I will have to find somewhere to pump. I hate having to find random places to pump but giving my baby breast milk is so so ... VIEW POST
