Green juice

Had the worst stomachs ache after eating fast food ... I have never had that bad if ache from eating a burger ... No more fast food for me.. Stomachs hurt for 2 days.. Worsted pain ever.. So my husband made me a green juice this morning : 
And it was delicious... It had pineapple , cucumber, apples ... That I could taste he might of thrown something else in there... I could never be on a juicing diet.. My husband every now and then will be.. I can't have a juice without eating something.. I don't like feeling hungry and I feel if I drink juice all day I won't be so nice .. I'm not nice when I'm hungry.. But I do like the juices he makes.. Not so much carrot.. But I do feel better after drinking it... So no more fast food for me; it's not so nice to my belly

#tbt Facebook

Today is throw back Thursday on Facebook.. Newsfeed filled with photos of people when they were younger with goofy haircuts and not so stylish clothes. Pictures filled with memories ... And yes I have done this and today I have.. I posted a photo when I first held my little baby.. 
I got this photo off the blog my husband made for our emmitt .. Because emmitt was born so early he had to spend 70 days in the hospital .. This is the blog my husband made http://bit.ly/babyemmitt he took a photo of our son every day.. 
First day my babe was born.. So tiny, so fragile... Looking at these pictures make me feel so grateful that I have my little bubba and how far he has come.. Its crazy how much I love him .. We never missed a day at the hospital either we would sleep there or wake up early to seem him..  So many sleepless night..It was all worth it.. I love my baby

Huggies vs pampers

When my little one was born he used preemie pampers , he didn't wear them for long bc their very small even for preemies ... He soon wore preemie huggies, when he came home I stuck to huggies that I got from his baby shower.. Soon ran out and started to use pampers- swaddlers. I soon noticed my emmitt was getting a rash but started to look like a burn.. Started getting bigger and bigger... So quit using them and put him in huggies all natural and used ad ointment soon went away In couple of days...  So then I strictly used huggies... Huggies can be expensive .. About 4 months later I still had pampers from baby shower but they were baby dry so I tried using those.. No burn no rash.. But didn't want to spend money buying pampers... Soon ran out of my supply so started by non brand diapers from publix or target... Those worked great but not for over night diapers... Huggies are the best for over night diapers... I have to say huggies Are the best haven't tried luvs yet I heard they are cheap and have no issues.. That will be the next diaper I try..

Not done kale...

Because of my obsession with kale I tried these: 
To be honest I was a little dissatisfied ... Didn't taste like kale more like peanuts .. They were small just fell apart in your hand... Not very happy about my kale tonight I just stick to making it myself

1 lb and 15 ounces

Yes, that's how small my lil baby was when he was born... Emmitt was born 2 months early and doctors are still not sure why he came early.. He was at hospital for 70 days.. The longest 70 days of our lives... He came home with no issues .. He is now around 14 pounds 
Still a skinny thing but so happy and healthy... I am so In Love with this boy and so thankful for the god I serve.. This boy was surrounded by so much prayer and is testimony of gods faithfulness.. 

Today I was at Ross and I overheard these lady's conversation .. One of the lady's asked how her grandson was doing and her response was he is finally 2 pounds.. I could hear the fear and stress in her voice .. Brought back how I felt the first couple days with emmitt ..I turned around with emmitt on my hip and shared emmitts testimony and to not give up and I will pray for her little one bc emmitt had a lot of prayer and is a testimony of it.. She thanked me and said  emmitt and I encouraged her..

Had so many wires and tubes... Such a scary time in my life but I held on to god and knew I would be taking this boy home .. 
Emmitt is a tough little guy and has come so far... So in love with this boy

I pretend to be healthy

Had the most delicouse dinner last night ... Wish I could say I cooked it but no.. Went to ethos vegan resteraunt and had bay cakes- chickpeas and veggies.. Taste very similar to crab cakes... But so much better... Found this recipe will be making this soon!!! If you have made anything similar to this let me know

Raw cows milk

I have tried raw cows milk the other day... To be honest the taste wasn't amazing .. It reminded me of skim milk... I understand it's healthy... Healthy is the new thing if your not eating something organic your labeled unhealthy... I like feeling healthy.. But I feel as if I want to eat a burger from Wendy's let me be.. And I don't think that labels me unhealthy.. I think I eat pretty well there are things I need to eat lest of just bc it makes me not feel well or is really not good for me like soda..Raw cows milk to me is healthy and probably amazing for you... Maybe in future it will be something I will enjoy but right now I will enjoy my 2 percent...

In the air

Took my son on his first airplane ride on Monday ... I was a little nervouse to go by myself with my 9 month baby- emmitt.. He did great.. So many people told me they cry while their ears pop, well emmitt was a wake for five mins then passed out... The last 30 mins on plane he was awake... So thankful by all the people I sat by.. They talked to him and made him giggle.. He didn't cry but got a little anxy out the landing ... But so amazed how well he did.... So thankful for all the kind people that helped me with my stroller or offered to hold him... Sorry I said no I don't hand my baby to anyone ... Emmitt is teething and he is being a great baby for having teeth coming in and plus we are on vacation ...... I have read things how to travel with a baby and blah blah... Really every baby is different .. Your baby might scream on the plane even if you brought all the toys or try to give the bottle.. My advice is for you not to be anxy bc your baby feeds off of it.. Be calm and try make best of it even your baby is red at face screaming... Give plenty of kisses and hugs..
