Going gluten free is hard. I am learning to adjust. I found gluten free pancakes at Trader Joes that are yummy for breakfast. Bobs red mill rice ceral that is good alos. I know it is better to make all your food from scratch but I can't find the time. I home school my 2 boys. I run them all over town. I am having a hard time finding time to cook everything. Cereal is easy and quick. But it looks like God has other plans.
I made shrimp scampi this week. I used Trader Joes Rice sticks for the pasta. I was surprised. The noodles were very good.
My favorite food in the whole world is pizza. If I was stranded on a desert island and could only have one thing that is what it would be. I was in tears when I thought about not eating it any more. But goood news bobs red mill make a GF pizza crust mix. I added a few spice to the mix and it was pretty good. Even my kids ate it.

Gluten Free
After a reasent bought with 7 days of stomach pain, I decided to look in to it further. I started doing to research on the internet. I discovered all my syptoms pointed toward Celiac Disease. Which is basically the inability to digest gluten.
That begs the questions what can I eat? What about eating out?
Today I tried Trader Joes Guten Free Dariy Free forzen pan cakes. They were very yummy! Just like the real thing. I also had a banana and coffee.
For lunch I went to Whole Food look for more food choices. They have a bakery and will make any sandwich on gluten free bread. They sandwich was good. The bread was a brown rice bread made by ener-g. It was dry and grainy.
I also went to Trader Joe's. The have a print out of 7 pages of Gluten free product that they carry.

Boys
Boys!
Why must everything be a weapon?
Crackers and sandwiches get eaten in to a gun shape. Every stick and wrapping paper roll, paper towel roll ect becomes a sword.
My boys tell me they are protecting me from the evil robots. Should evil robots ever invade the earth I am safe =)
It is so cute to see how my boys protect there mom with out ever being taught to do so.
Life with boys is busy but I would not want it any other way.

Boys and Parks
My children and I have been going to a park not far form our home for close to 5 years now. We are at that park sometimes 2 times a week. I love watching them grow and do new things as they gain strength. It is so much fun to watch them get bigger and bigger. C can now reach almost every bar in the park. O tries his hardest he thinks he is big. My boys are growing so fast.
Sad Christmas
I love to cook and bake cookies for my neighbors during the Christmas season. This year however, it has been hard to be in the mood. I lost 3 grandparents in 6 weeks this year. What makes things even harder is I don't know if they knew Christ. My heart aches for them. Are they in Heaven with our wonderful Lord and Savior? Or did they stand before Him covered in their sins?
Christmas Memories:
When I was a kid I loved getting together with my all my Grandparents. I loved having my family close. The women in my family would get together and bake cookies every year. I loved seeing my cousins. I just assumed my children would have the same. I really wanted my kids to have some of the same traditions I had as a child. I have learned that is not going to happen. My family is more then 400 miles away the see my kids 1 or 2 times a year.
My kids have 3 cousins and don't even know it. They have 2 aunts and 2 uncles and don't even know it. There aunts and uncles live very close. They don't see them or spend time with them as much as I wish. I have learned just because it is important to me it is not important to others.
I am so thankful for my hubby and children. I thank God for them every day. I just wish I had people I could be close to. I know God is in control and he has me where he wants me. It feels lonely sometimes.
After talking to the hubby, we have decided to make our own traditions or own memories. Now we just need to figure out what those traditions should be.
My kids are currently fighting in the other room "Oh happy memories" grrrrrrrrrrrrr

Life with to boys
Bathrooms! need I say more. Those of you that have boys know what I am talking about. Does it ever end? How one earth did the pee get back there?
I love being the mom of 2 boys. It is so much fun. ... Fun and never ending adventure. I wake up every day with a plan and God is quick to show me it is His plans not mine.
We started home schooling a little early this year. Our home school year does not start until September 8th. The kids are excited! Stickers pens, markers, paint, stamps, you name it they can not wait to use it. It is all new and shiney. Over the summer the wore the old ones out
Caden is most excited about math and science and reading his new books.
Owen is so excited about learning to read
I have learned one thing...well many things.. but for today
You can have a clean house when the kids move out.
My house is a mess because I took the time to play today.
