Healthy

Being healthy is not over rated. For what ever horrible, terrible, miserable reason the Griffin household is struck with the stomach bug multiple times a year. It's utterly a nightmare, but this time seems to be one for the books. I have never quite been that sick in my life that I recall. I couldn't shake that bad boy for 5 days and during those days I remember telling Russ I would rather give birth. Ah, being healthy is NOT over rated!! We are on the mend, and it helps that the weather seems to be consistently staying warmer. With the windows open and the sun shining in, I have been craving some great summery foods. I love a smoothie and they are an easy way for me to sneak in a bunch of yummy veggies in without the kids noticing. Harper is obsessed with a "smmoovie" and she will slurp them down, and we all know Crew will eat anything that resembles food but these sweet treats are easy for him to love! I seemed to be in a rut creating the same ones over and over again simply because it was easy, but I have been doing some searching around and found some fun new recipes to try! Enjoy and stay healthy! xo

Hippity Hoppity Easter Made it's Way!

Happy Easter! We have had such a fun day with our little love bunnies. The weather is warm the sun is shinning and we are hopped up on a candy high..life is good at our house! The bunny made it to our house bright and early this morning, Crew loved his first basket and Harper was thrilled too! We made it to church and then home for a fun brunch with all our favorite peeps! The kiddos had an egg hunt and played non stop in the jump jump! Russ and I are amped up for an early bed time tonight.. whoop whoop, holla if you hear me for some tuckered out babies!

We are excited for a relaxing spring break and hopefully (fingers crossed) warm weather! Hope you enjoy your Easter day! xoxo

Keeping up

Okay, I'm officially trying to keep up with my posts a little bit more. I sometimes find myself falling behind and then I end up with so much to post at one time that it's an overload! So hopefully I can do a better job. Crew is whopping 33 weeks old! Clearly everyone thinks this of their own baby but he is literally the sweetest baby on the planet and most beautiful. It is rare occasion to not find him with a smile on that sweet little face, which is made even more precious now with one little snaggle tooth on the bottom. He has mastered clapping and that is his favorite thing to do right now. He is crazy about his sister and he just watches her in amazement, I know he is thinking "I have no clue what she is doing but I can't wait to do that too!" If he isn't clapping or eating which seem to be his favs. (we are currently in the process of taking out a second mortgage to feed this little ham...joking, joking..but literally he eats everything) he is saying "dadadadad" he loves his daddy and Russ gets that ridiculously huge smile on his face, similar to the one he gets when the Hoyas take the win. Crew is the best addition to our family and since having him we are the happiest we have ever been. Harper too thinks he is the best and tells me on a daily basis, "thank you for getting my brother out of your belly, when can we get 6 more babies out of your belly?" ahhh..that's not happening but we are so glad that she has a permanent little buddy and someone to practice all her mommy skills on. Happy 33 weeks goose!
