Saturday it was a little warmer than most February days, and I decided to get out my more springy wardrobe. The one I haven't really worn since before baby #1. I mostly got them out for extra motivation, but I was surprised to find out how close I am to being able to wear most of them! And for an extra bonus, my favorite size 12 pair of jeans fit! I was so excited that I wore them all day. There were some other size 12 pants that don't quite fit yet, but these are the smallest jeans I have! That's definitely a big success step for me. To know that I get to buy a whole new pair of jeans when I go down another size is great motivation. My goal is to wear my favorite spring dress for Easter. That's another 8 weeks of hard work ahead!
I've mentioned before that one of my greatest weaknesses when it comes to healthy eating is my love for baking. I'll never be able to give it up, but I've been trying hard to find healthier baking recipes. I found a winner this morning on this blog. Strawberry Banana Oatmeal Muffins. I had to do with plain greek yogurt since I didn't have vanilla. I did add a little vanilla extract but I don't know that it made much of a difference. These were so moist and delicious and my toddler loved them. My husband hasn't tried them yet but I'm pretty sure he will give his approval.
I really need to work on sharing pictures here. I'm sorry I've been a little MIA lately. My husband bought me an ipod touch so that I don't have to pull out my ancient laptop very often. I like most everything about it, but writing a blog post is not very convenient. But sharing pictures is super easy. Or it would be if my husband would set up the icloud so that I could get pictures off his phone.
