What a day Tuesday.

So I woke up groggy and feeling a little ick today. I thought maybe it was because it was gray outside, but turned out I had a cough and stuffy nose, as well as a sinus headache. I think it may have been the back-to-back weekend races, as well as my parents' visit that did me in, but whatever the case I was in the mood to lounge on the couch all day.

Thankfully Caleb did not have a repeat of yesterday...he was fussy, crying, and just yuck all day Monday. Today he seemed in much better spirits. He & Noah did not mind having a down day; I think we all needed one after the last couple weeks of go-go-GO.

Staying true to this week's challenge, I was able to prep tonight's dinner in the morning. On the menu for the evening was crock-pot beef stew, a family favorite...

Prepping the veggies: red potatoes, celery, carrots, & onions...


Bring on the beef...USDA chuck roast.


All together in the pot...


8 hours later, the finished product. Tastes like I've been slaving in the kitchen all day. :)



The boys were so good that I got an hour and 15 minute nap in, and afterwards, I had to have my coffee. :)



On the homefront, we got rid of Caleb's bottles and formula this weekend! He's a milk lover now. :)

Workout stats: Jillian's 30 Day Shred, Workout 2, 173 calories burned. Hopefully I can hit the gym up tomorrow...I want to run!!
