Weight Watchers Wednesday!

Weight Watchers Wednesday is back at this house now that I am not pregnant, so it's time to kick it back into gear. I am down 22 pounds so far, but have a long way left to go. This week I have two new WW's discovery's that I am loving...

FIRST-
Strawberry Fiber One Yogurt is ZERO POINTS!!! Yup, ZERO! And it is actually really good. I am a picky yogurt person, I don't like many. But this is a yoplait brand and doesn't have a weird aftertaste like a lot of other brands. They also have peach, vanilla and key lime pie. I'm really liking having something to eat for ZERO points. :)

SECOND-
Gina's Weight Watchers Recipes, is a fantastic blog with amazing recipes. It is actually food that you would really make. It has some really, really great recipes! Check out the Chicken Quesadillas, Pico de Gallo, and the Carrot Cake. YUM, YUM, YUMMY! It is set up so nice, on the side column, you can even click on how many points you want and it will show you all the recipes in those points. As well as special categories like low carb, gluten free, vegan and under $10 recipes.

Hope those help, anyone else have any great WW's finds or tips this week?

Tip Tuesday! Bunny Smores

I posted these Easter Bunny Smores last year on my blog, and just had to make them again this year, they are just to cute. So, I thought I would re-post in case anyone else wanted to make them this year.

Re-Post:
This weeks "Tip Tuesday" tip is from Creative Holiday Gift Ideas! It is a jar of Easter Bunny Smores, I made for Molly to give her story time teacher and nursery leader.

I thought this was such a cute idea, and very festive. You actually mix them up with a few wet ingredients to make brownies. YUM!

Ah, I love having all my dinners planned for the week ahead of time. It's so nice to not have to think about what's for dinner and know I have all the ingredients in the house. Now... if only I didn't put off planning it until after dinner Monday night... :)

Sunshine Craft - Toddler Time Thursday

Today me and Molly made this handprint sunshine. She loves finger painting, so any handprint painting craft is always a big hit.

I just cut out a yellow circle and read mouth. Then I had Molly glue the mouth on and put on the sticky googly eyes I splurged and bought this week. :) On the blue paper, we made yellow handprints in a circle. After it dried, we just glued the face one.

Easy Peasy. :) Now we have a sunny spring picture to display

Wordless Wednesday!

I wish I was doing this today...

Magnetic Pom-Poms! Tip Tuesday!

I've been seeing the great magnetic pom poms people were buying and using with there preschoolers, and knew I had to figure out how to whip some up for Miss Mollycakes. So, I gathered up the pom-poms I had, some circle magnets, and my glue gun and got to work.

Basically, I just glued the pom-poms to the magnets with a bit of hot glue and let cool. The magnets I had were adhesive, but I thought that would probably not hold up to a 2 1/2 year olds use. As always, I keep these away from Molly when I'm not using them with her, and watch closely, you can never be too careful with kids and small magnets.

Molly absolutely LOVED this activity. We have done pages like this before with dot markers, but she never really wanted to stay in the circles. I was really surprised that she put the pom-poms on the dots right away, and even matched up the colors. I didn't have all the colors, so Molly told me I needed to make more. Looks like I'll be going to the craft store to pick up more colors soon!

You can find this great Easter printable I used at Confessions of a Homeschooler. She has lots of great educational Easter activities you can print off.
