Wow, it's been a while. Realized people are actually noticing I have a blog, so maybe I should start updating it :)
Now that I have a 2 year old (when did that happen????) I am especially interested in toddler nutrition. While my daughter is still nursing, her nutrition needs are being met more by food now and less by mama's milk. I am going to try to post a new recipe a week to try.
All the reading I have been doing is making me consider going gluten free....but not sure I am ready for that big of a change right out of the gate. So our focus will be on whole foods, few ingredients and EASY. I don't have time to spend hours in the kitchen a day, and I am certain most mamas are in the same boat.
Stoked about my daughter getting to start Montessori school at the end of the month. One of my biggest complaints about day care has been their meal plan. They have a kitchen and prepare all the meals and snacks there, with parents being unable to bring food from home. Sounds great until you look at the menu (all USDA approved no less)..consisting of packaged foods, canned fruits and such nutritious offerings as jello and captain crunch. Wonder why kids are highly wound, hyperactive and regularly sick? Maybe their nutrition (or lack there of) has something to do with it.....

New and exciting things to come :)
I am doing a 30 day bootcamp to help get me motivated to grow my blog and my contacts in my goal of spreading information and support for fitness and nutrition. As a part of this endeavor, I am going to be creating a weekly kid friendly recipe and trying to target the families and staff at the day care center my daughter attends. Everyday I notice many of the staff and parents are overweight and seem to be tired and dragging. I can't wait to get started on reaching out to them. First, need to find a venue to host a weekly email distribution that is graphic friendly and searchable.

back on the train..
well life gets in the way of the best laid plans sometimes. Here I was thinking I would try to post daily, and here I go a whole month between posts....Lillian got the GI bug, my husband got the nasty cold, and I got both. Hard few weeks. Still not 100% better, but did manage a decent run tonight. I was so tired after work I almost bailed and went home. But I did not give up, I went to the gym and got it DONE :)
Of course then I made chocolate chip cookies for dessert (while catching up on the Biggest Loser no less). Baby steps
