Happy Hump'n Hummus Day!!

Hopefully this means I'm on the downhill side of a poopy week! Not only has it been super packed with my Mom here (and now gone), Parky sick, Paul sick, me feeling like I'm coming down with something but refusing to get sick...oh yeah, and I still have a full time job, two other kids, 3 pugs, and a BLAH-G 

You know it's been a bad week when your 12 year old asks you when the last time you showered was...it's worse when you can't remember either...

If I don't have time to shower, I DEFINITELY don't have time to be sick...just sayin! Good thing I'm not working out all the time yet...that could get really bad, really quick. Note to self...more showers- make it work! Plus I notice the dirtier my hair is the shiner my grays are...double yucky!

Made stuffed peppers and chili soup when Mom was down, but forgot to take pics- need to refocus so I keep the ideas flowing for meals and snacks! It's been all about the hummus this week- I totally forgot hummus was a YES food! How did that happen?? I tried to make hummus once and it was super gross- I stick to Sabre and Athenos...Garlic, Red Pepper, and Greek style are my favs!

 
How do you Hummus? Store bought or homemade?

Sleepless in Gilbert




 



My mom has been here all weekend so I have had really been slacking at getting my posts in everyday- hopefully everyone was out enjoying fun stuff and never noticed! I've had my hands full here for sure! Parky has been cutting molars since Thursday and we couldn't get the fever to break so finally had to take him in on Friday night to the after hours clinic. Found out the poor little guy had an ear infection too! The molars finally broke through yesterday and today is the first time he's been his regular handful and not the ouchy, cranky, handful. Just got these in my last shipment and I think tonight's the night to see if they work cause I really need a good night's rest at this point!







Learned a lot of great info last weekend in CA at my Ladies event so was super excited to get my Mom on some product to help with Menopause symptoms- will keep you posted on how they work for her, but today was day 4 and she says she only had one hot flash today and that isn't normal so good news so far! YAY!







Have to brag on my daughter Alyssa's art for a second cause her talent is really ridiculous- she brought home her Art Club project- chalk drawing on regular black construction paper- WOW!

 
Any good suggestions for teething babies? Cause the best one I've heard involves Tequila...not sure if that was for the gums, me or both...gonna go with both:)

Foot Fetish Thursday

This week seems to feel like the week that never ends....ground hog day anyone? Maybe it has to do with the fact it gets dark at like 4pm...which makes me feel like I'm working way late, when really it's still early...grrr!

I'm all messed up right now....gotta get it together Melanie! Time for a little pick me up from the feet up:)

I <3 feet!

Yep, pedi's make everything better! I keep trying to drag Paul in there with me cause he needs one WAY more than me but it's a no-go with him "too girly"....he doesn't know what he's missing but I'm not giving up- he'll probably be hooked once I get him in there so it may be a blessing in disguise right now!

Does your man pedi?
