I'm Back! I Think...

One of my favorite bloggers told me if blogging feels like work, then to take a break. So I did. Of course I also needed a break to have our little girl! She is 8 weeks old now. It's so hard to believe, but we are starting to get settled into a routine.

I have started baking again, and hope to participate in Cook It Wednesday on The Thrifty Mama's site. I started a little early on Tuesday night because my husband had band practice. I made Pumpkin Chocolate Chip muffins I found HERE the same recipe Money Saving Mom uses. She's actually the one that got me interested in them! I also made some lactation cookies for me! Of course, my whole families loves them, so they don't last very long. You can find the recipe HERE. I make them with and without chocolate chips. I also use mini chips so I can use half the amount of chips. The "dosage" is 4 cookies per day, and at the rate I actually eat them, I should be making gallons of milk! Sorry, I hope that wasn't TMI!

I will be posting less often than my fellow bloggers, but working full time outside my home, dealing with twin toddlers and a newborn is keeping me plenty busy!

So stay tuned...I'll be posting about what this site is all about!

Making Room for Sister

So I mentioned I was cleaning up and getting rid of clutter... and that I am! Once I finish cleaning out the room that will become the nursery, I'll post before and after pictures. WHAT A DIFFERENCE already!

I sold quite a bit at a yard sale, and I made almost $500. GREAT! Then I have been taking loads at a time to Goodwill. I have made 3 trips so far, and I am embarrased to say, I'm not finished! How did I accumulate so much stuff???

So as I continue to work, I encourage you to as well. Clean the clutter and you will feel lighter!
