Productive weekend!

I feel like I had a very productive weekend and although I don't quite remember the exact order I did everything in, I feel like I got a lot done! :) I did quite a bit of baking - for me this time, and made more of the low fat oatmeal raisin cookies I made before and I also baked some low fat chocolate chip cookies which I thought were so good! Better then my other recipe that I used to make all the time but has a ton of fat in them! (those are hubbies cookies) he he I made some vegetarian chili which was pretty good, a little too acidity ~ I think next time I will leave out the tomato paste!? Other then that it was good, then I made some tuna macaroni salad which I also really like but hubby isn't too crazy about, and the best thing about it is that it is almost fat free! ;) I will have to post recipe's for the salad and chocolate chip cookies sometime this week!



I also got all my fabric cut for the diapers and was actually quite surprised that there was not very much material left over, maybe enough to do two receiving blankets or three rags? Now I just have to get them over to the aunts, who apparently isn't in too much of a hurry for them. She told me on bowling night that there was no rush, the diapers she made would last me quite awhile (they are smaller then the one's I was cutting out). But I will make sure she gets all the stuff this weekend, then it is out of my house! ;) I did a good clean on the house, washing floors, bathrooms, windows and vacuuming! Got most of the laundry done (a chore that never seems to be 'finished') and I took the dog for a couple walks! We rented a movie on pay per view Saturday night 'The Game Plan' - it was pretty good, I like the bulldog in this movie ... super cute! I found the ending to be quite sad but hubby says it wasn't so it must just be my hormones!? I also balled like a baby when I watched Grey's Anatomy (a show I don't usually watch but since the writers strike I have been and wish I would watch it more), it was super sad!! :( I think my emotions are finally coming out a bit?


It was so nice this weekend, I actually sat on the front step for a while enjoying the sun and warm breeze. Looking at all the spring clean up that needs to be done to the yard! I'm hoping that this year my lilies and tulips do much better then last year cause I probably won't be doing too much in the flower beds this year! I found out this weekend that one of our friends is also now expecting their first, she is still really early (only 6 weeks) so they aren't quite telling everyone yet. So now that makes three for me, three other people I know are having babies this year! I'm excited for my doctors appointment on Wednesday, I have a few questions for her - most of which I can't remember of course! ;) But I do want to ask about this awful aftertaste I have been having lately? I hope she can recommend more then just gum and candies?! Maybe it's from something I'm eating too much of? Like too much dairy or iron!? Or maybe it's just a pregnancy thing? :P

I love Greys Anatomy! I hope you can sort out the nasty after taste thing.
