HAPPY SECOND BIRTHDAY TO MY LITTLE GUY ELIOTT!
AMAZING TO ME HOW TWO YEARS HAVE QUICKLY PASSED. THIS REALLY IS BANANAS. I MUST ADMIT, ALTHOUGH I SWORE OFF BIG PARTY CELEBRATIONS AFTER ELIOTT'S FIRST BIRTHDAY PARTY, I WAS INSPIRED BY HIS OBSESSION WITH BANANAS TO THROW HIM A BANANA THEMED BONANZA. I STARTED PIECING A FEW THINGS TOGETHER ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO. WANTED TO THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX & MAKE IT FUN + MODERN. I MUST HAVE FORGOTTEN HOW SLOW YOU GET IN YOUR 8TH MONTH OF PREGNANCY BECAUSE I WAS THIIIIIS CLOSE TO CANCELING A FEW DAYS BEFORE + DOING SOMETHING WITH JUST ELIOTT. BUT I KNEW I WOULD REGRET IT...+ NOW I'M SO GLAD WE DID IT. ELIOTT HAD THE BEST TIME WITH OUR FAMILY + A FEW OF HIS TODDLER BUDDIES. NO FANCY PHOTOS THIS TIME AROUND BUT WANTED TO SHARE SOME DETAILS BELOW!

is it weird that i miss being pregnant sometimes? throwing it back to my baby shower #anditainteventhursday
in honor of cinco de mayo & my love for tacos (especially shrimp or fish!), having a little fiesta tonight in a guilt-free way: TACO BAR - MIX & MATCH marcela valladolid street corn tortillas white corn // 4 tortillas 100 calories shrimped with lime juice & ciltanro leaves (cooked on high in crock pot for 15-20 min) // 3oz 90 calories pulled skinless chicken breast (cooked with salsa on low in crock pot for 6 hours) // 3oz 100 calories shredded iceberg lettuce // 1 cup 10 calories shredded mexican four cheese blend (2%) // 1/8 cup 40 calories chopped red bell pepper // 1 cup 40 calories black beans // 1/4 cup 50 calories sliced black olives // 2 tbsp 25 calories pineapple slices // 1/2 cup 35 calories mango slices // 1/2 cup 55 calories LIGHT LIME MARGARITAS
jose cuervo tequila // 1 shot 70 calories joe cuervo light margarita mix // 4oz 0 calories margarita salt // brim of cup 0 calories lime // slice or wedge 5 calories cheers! perfectly imperfect? i think so. extra dark chocolate cake layered with vanilla cream frosting simply decorated with peonies. first try of many :) i have definitely become a fan of substituting whole eggs with egg whites only & swapping [crisco] oil with coconut oil. need to prep in 3-5 days advance? after your cake has fully cooled, wrap it tightly in plastic wrap & keep in in the fridge. worked like a charm.
