2 Month Old Photos

It seems like just yesterday that my little Wylie Roo arrived in my arms. My heart grows for him every second of every hour of every day! I can't believe he is already 2 months old and growing by the second. Sorry these are a little late, our house has been a monkey house lately.

Im still learning my camera and how to use it, but i have to say my little man sure knows how to work the camera!

Welcoming Our New Addition

After months of preparing for our third bundle of joy, the wonderful day came a little earlier than expected. Just like my first two, he made his appearance a month early. With the help of my DSLR and great sun light I am so so excited to introduce him to the world!

Welcome to our family Mr. Wylie Patrick Williams 

It is amazing how he is already his own person. I can't wait to watch him bloom into an incredible man! 

Mommy Loves you!!! 

Garcinia Cambogia Product Review

This is a sponsored article. Everything in this article are 100% my own thoughts.

We were given the opportunity to try Garcinia Cambogia Supreme. Due to me being 7 months pregnant and not able to try the supplement until after birth, my loving husband agreed to be the test bunny. During the month of November he gave this bad boy a try and unfortunately it was not for him. He started with the recommended dosage for best results, which entails taking 2 capsules 20-30 minutes before a meal with an 8 oz glass of water. He immediately reported feeling shaky after this dosage. So he reduced his intake to 2 capsules in the morning and 2 at night. He yet again did not feel normal after taking this amount. He continued to shake as well as have an upset stomach. Giving the supplement one more try he reduced his intake to 1 capsule in the morning and one at night. With the reduced amount he still was still shaking and had an upset stomach. During the month he did not have an increase of energy but the supplement did help in suppressing his appetite. With that said he would not recommend Garcinia Cambogia to anyone with previous stomach issues.

Easy Guide to Planning Thanksgiving: Part Two Cooking Timeline

Thanksgiving should be about spending time with family not cooking all day in the Kitchen. Here is a great info-graph that I created to break the cooking down into an easy timeline.  This is just as example on how our family does our Thanksgiving cooking. For those of you that love to bake, we cook everything but the pumpkin pie the day before to give us more time to spend enjoying everyones company! 

Happy Cooking!! 

Planning for Turkey Day: Defrosting the Turkey

The countdown has begun. We are now three days away from a day filled of good food and family. I have to admit this will be my first time hosting our family in our new home and cooking for more than five people. I without a doubt am going to need some help and planning to make sure our turkey day goes without any bumps in the road.

After researching (well Pinteresting) Thanksgiving, I have compiled what I think will help me and others host a great Thanksgiving Day.

My husband has insisted on doing the Turkey this year. This means we will be frying our Turkey in the driveway while the men do whatever it is they do. Don’t turn up your nose just yet. We fried our Turkey last year and I have to say I have never tasked a Turkey that was so moist and full of flavor. The only draw back to frying a Turkey is that it has to be completely thawed or it will blow up in the fryer, and I would really like it if that did not happen! Here are the rules on how to defrost a turkey:  

• Put turkey in fridge to thaw
• Put turkey on large tray to catch any juice
• Keep turkey in packaging
• It takes 24 Hours per 4-5 lbs of Turkey to thaw

Come back tomorrow to see part two of "The Easy Guide to Planning Thanksgiving"!

You Know You Are A Parent Moment

I am not going to lie, I do this probably once a day. It saves me from either pulling my hair out or screaming along with my kids. The only problem is I usually have two toddlers and two dogs on the other side of the door.

Have you found yourself doing this?
