Happy Monday! I hope you all had a great weekend!
We are off to a great start with a couple of firsts…one for Mirella this weekend, as we started her on solids yesterday, and me officially kicking off my personal training and wellness coaching business this morning with my first client! It felt so good to be back doing something that I love and helping other women get fit and be their best self all while my kiddos were sleeping!
So, to share some of the marvelous things that have been happening around here, I’m joining Katie for Marvelous In My Monday today!
Marvelous is…
Keenan helping me make Mirella’s oatmeal on Saturday (in his undies because we are pants free household these days!), which I’ll be posting the recipe later this week if you are interested. I made the same oatmeal for Keenan and it’s super easy!
Mirella’s face when she took her first spoonful of oatmeal. As you can see, she wasn’t a big fan of it! Keenan was so excited to help feed her but when he saw that she didn’t like it and started spitting it out, he kept telling me, “Mommy, she doesn’t like it, so stop feeding her!” It was priceless!
My two little cuties!
My silly afternoon shake buddy. Keenan specifically requested that we make our shakes and drink them while we did puzzles!
And last, but not least, hitting my old (pre-pregnancy) deadlift PR of 205 lbs this morning! I actually lifted it 5 times, so next time I’m aiming for 215-225!!
Well, that’s it for today. Have a good one!
Questions:
What was marvelous about your weekend?
Did/do you make homemade baby food for your children?
Wow – great job on that deadlift!!!
Cute picture of you and Keenan! Did Mirella end up liking the oatmeal?
Thanks, Kim! Mirella is still not a fan of the oatmeal. We are on day 4 and she still makes a face and gags a little, so I’m going to give it another few days before trying something else.
I love your pictures – Mirella’s face IS priceless and your son is such a cutie. It’s so cute that you can share shakes and puzzles together 🙂 And WOW… what a deadlift. Great job!
My son and I went camping with my parents this weekend and it was awesome! I did make homemade baby food when my son first started eating solids, but I gave up eventually. Everything except avocados and bananas made him gag 🙁 I couldn’t get the texture smooth enough for most of the veggies so I just bought the store baby food.
Thank you, Amy! I can’t wait to go camping! We have been wanting to go for a while, but we have put it on hold since having Mirella. Hopefully when she is a little older we will go!
Congrats on reaching that PR for your deadliest! That’s awesome! I can’t believe it’s already solid food time! Just goes by so fast! They are so cute!
Thank you! I was so pumped! Yes, it goes by way too fast.
