The Latest!

So ever since my Boiled Cookies post, I have been sick...(NOT due to the boiled cookies. lol just in case you were wondering!) I am feeling much better (Praise God!) and have taken a few pictures of my life around me! First I just want you to see Bubba's (Will) experience with the first time he ate peanut butter & jelly....ADORABLE! 

How can anyone resist this preciousness!!? :o) I just love him! We like to call him "fat boy" because he eats EVERYTHING!! I'm not looking forward to him being a teenager if he eats this much now!!

Now...I want to let everyone know that I am cutting back on coffee, and when I say "cutting back on coffee" I mean I haven't made/drank any in two weeks! (*GASP!*) "But Rachel, what are you drinking instead of that pure deliciousness?" you ask? ...well my friends...Let me tell you....

*TEA*

Yes, that's right! I have taken up tea drinking! It really is magnificent! I felt inspired to start drinking tea because I was watching a TV show the other day and they were talking about how AWESOME it is for your health! and well people...IT.IS.SO.AWESOME.FOR.YOUR.HEALTH! So...I looked up one of my fave bloggers who just so happens to enjoy tea very much- Mrs. Amber Apple- yes I have posted about how cute her blog is before. But she really loves tea and quite frankly...I didn't know where to begin with this new "lifestyle" so I hit up her blog as a resource. And well...I chose these at the grocery store for my first go at it...

ahhh....I am in LOVE! Definitely two GREAT choices! I drink the Twining's in the morning (instead of my usual cup o' joe with half and half and sugar in the raw. Now...I turn on the stove to boil my water in my tea pot and throw a tea bag in a fave coffee cup--or should I say "tea cup" now? Except it's not actually a tea cup...I like my big honkin' coffee cups!-- pour a couple of tablespoons teaspoons of Sugar in the Raw (I am a southern girl...I like my tea SWEET! hot or cold.) and enjoy. It definitely makes me feel better! And use the bathroom less...you know what I mean after you have that morning cup of coffee...

And now. this is what I woke up to this morning....

haha. Doesn't he look HAPPY?? Yeah...they got to roll around in mud early this morning when it was FREEZING outside! I felt so bad...he looked so pitiful when he walked in the door. I asked him if he had fun, thinking that boys LOVE that kind of stuff...He didn't. I had to wash his uniforms twice to get the grittiness off from the sand...Poor thing.

P.S. I am watching The Princess Diaries...I love this movie! :o)

The.End.
