Spring has arrived in the crossroads of america. Which means alternating days of warm and cold, sun and rain.
Saturday was one of those lovely warm days. It started with helping Daddy now the lawn and wrapped up with bubbles.
Sunday dawned cold and wet. W waited impatiently for the sun to come out. The rain finally left about supper time and W was just desperate to go out. And we discovered the most important thing that spring brings. Mud.
And for me, flowers.
We may be in the dog days of summer now, but as we being baby shower season for fall and winter babies, it is time to think about winter car seat safety.
Heavy Coats and buntings worn under a car seats harness can compress and allow enough room space during an accident to allow a child to be ejected from a the seat.
Jen Ellis, a mother and certified Child Passenger Safety Technician suggest this test to see how much space could be caused by compression of a jacket or bunting during an accident.

These are my first little baby tomato’s ever. I keep thinking is like a vegetable garden, but I don’t really want to work at it. So my first jaunt in to gardening is a small container garden consisting of one tomato plant, two pepper plants, and some cilantro. I feel ridiculously proud of these little guys.

I’ve been really wanting to try this stuffed sweet peppers recipe I found on chocolate & carrots blog. I’m so happy I finally got around to trying it tonight, because they were amazing! I did use a few alterations, though, so I’ve given my altered recipe below, and already have ideas to try out for next time too!
Stuffed Sweet Peppers
About 30 sweet peppers
3 heaping tablespoons low fat cream cheese
2 teaspoons low fat milk (I used 1%)

A really beautiful salad, but guess I don’t like raw peppers well enough for this. Changing the proportions and adding some avocado might make it made to my liking. It is pretty though.
I’m trying to learn some healthful habits. I started an app on my phone call TheFabulous. That is supposed to help encourage you to build good habits.
One of the suggested habits is being grateful for 10 minutes. I thought I’d write down what I’m grateful for, and what better place to do it than here.
Today I’m grateful that my husband is a good father. We are imperfect parents. But we are learning together. He is great with playing with our son. It is bad to say, but I get board and have a hard time playing with a toddler for any length of time. but my husband and play cars or sandbox , or push W on the swing for 20 minutes. He is engaged with our son during these play time.
So I’ve completed a quilted comforter, fleece blanket and pillow case for the big boy bed. You can see that the big boy is in the bed, but he is not really asleep. But at least he is practicing. The fitted sheet is yet to come.
I’ve posted some new Jewelry to my etsy site.
