How Cute is this little house?

Imaginarium Wooden Farm Set.

(Pig also included but plastic veggies and orange shape is not)

I just had to share my daughters latest toy, it's a little farm house and I got it on sale recently from Toys'R'US for $15.99, but I believe it is now going for $19.99. They little characters are so adorable and I find them to be safe for my daughter who is 16 Months. The house is pretty cute as well and i did have to build it but it didn't take me that long, specially considering I used a normal screwdriver. It also comes with a paper mat but my daughter would destroy that in a second, so i didn't lay it down.

So that is enough of that toy, we have also been playing a lot of puzzles on our ipad and she has gotten so good at the single piece ones, but she has recently started doing 4 piece puzzles and just yesterday I caught her playing a card match game on the Winnie the pooh app. I am so happy about this, she has been doing real puzzles since November but was always so frustrated by the ones on the ipad until now. It's crazy that she is not even a year and half and she can navigate through the ipad so well, she finds her apps, opens & closes them on her own. :)

New year has been great and I have been working on our resolutions, eating better, working out, dedicating more time to the little care-bear, also adding some me time to the agenda and just today i dealt with one of my bad habits, I cleaned my make up brushes! I will be cleaning those bad boys every time I use them. :D

Would anyone like me to share recipes for things we eat? or maybe ideas of meal plans or snacks?

Well, I hope to have up a recipe very soon for a kid friendly craft or activity soon.

(I should note that I was not paid nor am I in anyway affiliated with toys'r'us or the Imaginarium brand)

Whole 30 Challenge: Turkey Veggie Burgers & Butternut Squash Fries

Hi again! I have been a little M.I.A since the new year. I apologize, but I am back again and I wanted to share with you my newest thing. I stumbled across the Whole30 Challenge, and after reading about it and it's benefits, I decided I wanted to take part in this challenge too. So, Today was my first day, it's been good so far but I can see there will be some difficult days ahead as far as cravings go. For my first day I started out with Eggs, bacon & an apple for breakfast. for lunch I was a getting hungry and needed something quick so, I had a rolled egg omelet & a delicious salad packed with lots of yummy things and I just sprinkled it with some salt, pepper & lemon. For dinner I made more of an effort, I had turkey veggie patties, butternut squash baked fries & some salad vegetables on the side. If you would like the recipe for my Turkey veggie Burgers just follow the steps below. 1 lb Ground Turkey 1 small onion or half a regular sized onion chop...

Paleo Recipe: Spicy Cilantro, Lime & Paprika Chicken Thighs

This chicken recipe is not only delicious, but Whole30 & Paleo friendly. It's also a quick but flavorful meal to prepare during the week. You can either grill these or bake them in the oven. I have tried both and they came out great either way. You will need: 1 pack of Chicken Thighs Bone in & skin on (usually 4) 1 tbsp Paprika 2 tsp Garlic Powder 1 tsp of dried Parsley 1 tsp of Salt 1 tbsp of Cilantro (I used pureed) Juice & zest from a Lime 1/2 tsp Cayenne Pepper 1/2 tsp of ground Pepper 1 tbsp of olive oil Preheat oven at 400F if you are going to be baking it straight away (if you are going to let it sit, hold off on that). Mix all the ingredients together (not the chicken). Once you have your marinade, add your chicken thighs and coat them well. I usually get some under the skin because if you don't the chicken can be rather bland. Depending if you are letting it sit some or not, go ahead and bake for 35-40 mins. Once...
