manic Monday ......Tuesday

Ok. So. I actually have a great excuse for why I didn't post my first actual "committed" manic Monday. I had been working all week on taking, and editing pictures. Keeping track of my ideas to write. I worked the same yesterday. Finishing my October shape mag just so I could post interesting things for yall. I had to make a last minute run to the grocery store for some formula. Barrett didn't wind up falling asleep with the last bottle of the can, so off to Walmart I went. I didn't realize until about the time I was going to hop into bed to finish my post, (11:30) that I must have left my phone in the basket at the store. SUre enough, I did. And since I blog off of my phone, well....you know.
So here it is.
Just so you ladies know. It's fall. And this is my great idea for those days when you have no time to fix your hair, or those new fall bangs you just cut...

Pajamas day today. Barretts first time in a cart seat. He looked like such a big boy.

He also got up on his knees several times in therapy today. All by himself. I'm such a proud mamma. I can't even tell you

Nail polish of the week. "Off with her red" It's a great fall red. Kinda burnt orangey red. One of my favs

I regret to inform you, that this polish is being discontinued. It was from the Alice in wonderland collection. But you might actually get lucky and find it on sale like I did since its your last chance to buy it. I already had a bottle, but felt obligated to purchase another. What can I say. I'm a sucker for a sale. AND I CAN NEVER GET IT

AGAIN :'(

ever since I was in highschool, I have drank diet...everything. I no longer like the taste of regular soda. Since the book "skinny b@#ch" I have not used artificial sweetener except the natural stuff....Stevia. man! It's been sooo hard not to just grab a diet coke from work since there is a whole fridge full.But so excited to find out that they now make a soda with Stevia!!! Can't wait to go get some

More interesting finds in this months shape magazine

I ...well..my friend donna....thought of a great new, and probably cheaper use of shower color processing caps. You can find them at sallys. Not sure if it would be less expensive than the glad ones, but I would think so. I couldn't find the price online to tell you for sure, but its a Good idea for leftovers without lids

Now...only if she actually left them in :(

Went on a camping trip this weekend with my friend Whitney. I was determined to take a couple of fall pics for my blog, but this was about as fallish as I could get...of the good ones anyway.lol. we had so much fun

Who said eating healthy had to be boring, and not taste good?
This is a half serving of everything(plenty). Vanilla Greek yogurt. Granola. And actually a quarter of a serving of raspberries. 13.5g protein. No fat. Only 215 calories. Buy a scale. A cheap one. It helps with controlling your portion size

A few fav pics of the past week.....or so

He was trying to eat my hat.
Well, that's all folks. Until next time. *Maddi

P.s. I really do strive to be a woman of my word, and felt bad that I didn't get to post this yesterday :/
