Kid-friendly menu

I've been obsessing over Bret's birthday party lately. My biggest dilemma is what kind of food to serve that will satisfy both adults and kids. Any suggestions?

The dreaded bridesmaid diet

Well, I was totally dreading this but I have to start getting serious about my exercise plan and sticking to a nutritious diet. Jason's brother is getting married in March and I'm in the wedding. This is the bridesmaid dress. Gorgeous, huh?! Exactly. Which means that I have to look as good as that dress. The area that I need to target is my arms. They're not fat, just flabby. I have to admit that I haven't lifted weights since Bret has been born. That's my mistake. Now I have a bit of work to do in order for my arms not to flap in the wind.

How do you stay fit during winter months???

I'll let you know how I'm doing.....

Friends

Last week Bret and I visited Alanna and G for a few hours. It was super nice out so we took a walk and Alanna got to listen to Bret's temper!! LOL - he wasn't too bad, just sick of sitting in a car seat and then in a stroller. We had a lot of fun. G is so big and he can sit up on his own!! Such a big boy!! This was my favorite picture with the two boys - even though G wouldn't sit still!!! Watch out Alanna, he is ready to move!!!

Belated - Happy 10th months / fall plans

Sorry, Bret - Happy 10 months old!! I've been trying to find our stupid camera since Labor Day. We did the Mackinac Bridge walk and it was awesome! The weather was perfect and the walk went really quickly (kind of to my disappointment). I wanted to walk longer!! Bret did really well, he slept about 3/4 of the way across.

Um, updates:

No new stuff to say about Bret. I'm starting to think about his birthday party (YAY!!!). I can't wait!!! I'm also obsessed with cider mills and getting Bret to see animals and hay rides this fall. Maybe everyone in the Detroit area should go together!!! I think the cider mills north of Detroit are much better than the ones in OH. Blake's anyone?! Let me know which weekends you have available and let's get together!!! Even if you don't have kids, you're welcome to have fun with us!

I'll post again when I can find the stinkin' camera.
