{ so many hearts in my watermelon today }

I'm on day 28 of whole30! That means Sunday I'm having sushi and ice cream! I'm so happy with the results I've gotten from whole30. 1. I haven't weighed myself but I fit perfectly into all the jeans that I had stopped wearing due to gaining weight. 2. I don't suffer from cravings. like. at. all. 3. I can actually say no to doughnuts, chocolate and ice cream. 4. I don't have to constantly snack on something, three meals a day and the occasional handful of nuts or fruit and I'm totally satisfied. 5. I can cook the same thing for the family instead of cooking a meal for myself and one for them. My relationship with food has completely changed for the better and I love how I feel so much that I'm starting whole30 again on July 5th.

Last weekend was so much fun! I had a girls date with my friend Jasmin, then we went to have dinner with her and her family, they invited us to spend the night at their new place and after, we picked up Damian and Maxi who where back from visiting my dad in TJ. Us girls ended up staying home with the bbs and the boys went to our friends house who was actually bummed that we didn't go, they were waiting for us with s'mores for the kids. On Sunday morning we all went to the farmers market and after we had a carne asada at their place. Everything wasn't all fine and dandy we did have a big scare at the end of the day when Maxi jumped from one couch to another and bumped his head on some furniture, he bled a lot and Damian kind of panicked so we all got really scared but luckily my baby is a tough cookie and the cut wasn't deep. Some antibiotics, bandages and icees did the job. Oh boy did we get scared though, I felt so bad for my poor baby. The next day the first thing he said when he woke up was " I jump, I jump mama, I hurt!".

This weekend we have our friends birthday party, zoo date and like I mentioned a sushi and ice cream date.

Hope you guys have a great one! XOXO

Happy Friday! Maximiliano woke up on the wrong side of the bed. I have no plans. Damian has band practice. The weather is gloomy. So let's see how this Friday plays out for us over here. I'm on day 15 of whole30 and that means I'm half way there! I couldn't feel better and am not missing any food at all, I never go hungry and am happy with all the meals I eat. Only on day 9 did I have a MEAN donut craving and I almost gave in BUT am so happy I didnt! This weekend I'm going to try to fit in a farmer's market outing and hopefully some beach time. I'm almost done with all crafty diy's for Maxi's birthday so I'm happy about that! Also I get to hang out with my good friend Jasmin tomorrow so yay, maybe we will get some thrifting done. Hope you all have a great weekend! XOXO

Lately

Hello. It feels like I haven't blogged in forever. Here are some pictures from last month and some from this month.

I'm on day 6 of whole 30 and I'm physically feeling really good, the mild headaches are gone BUT none the less I'm still feeling VERY moody at times. I don't know... I might just do a whole 30 post and talk about it. What I'll say now is that I honestly feel like I could eat this way forever with of course indulging once in while. The thing I miss THE most is creamer in my coffee forget the sugar give me my creamer! Also surprisingly the thing I've occasionally had a craving for are pancakes... I don't usually eat pancakes often and they are not my favorite food.

Here's what I've been up to lately: zoo trip, girls day out while boys go to the park with dads, hanging out with my sisters, some shopping and birthday planning/ crafting but mostly LOTS of procrastinating. 

 { Maxi went to the fridge, took out an egg and cracked it in here all while I took a two minute bathroom brake. }

 { Local gourmet tacos from Sauld!. If you're in San Diego I recommend checking this place out on taco tuesday since they have a 3 for 5$ deal. Everything was really good and they have hand made tortillas! }

 { Playing dress up with mommy's hat + sunglasses }

 { Missing warm days, can it please start feeling like summer already! }

 { I'm always building forts for Maxi but he seems to show no interest for them yet. He likes them for like a second then moves on to the next thing. }

 { Mint iced mojito coffee and fresh flowers from the market. }

 { Here we were at the whaley house in old town San Diego. It's supposed to be haunted and the creepy thing is that Maximiliano started talking about a kid ghost and pointing. }

  { Cinco de Mayo celebrations. }

Spicy Sofritas Veggie Bowls. On the to make list.

I am definitely the Default Parent.

DIY leather strap hanging planters. YES please.

Can't decide if I want to get these or these for Maximiliano.

I've been having baby fever lately. These baby girl clogs are the cutest.

GOALS.

It's Friday and we literally have no plans this weekend and I am perfectly fine with that.

I've been really contemplating doing a round of whole 30. I feel like my body would really thank me for it. After struggling with eating a healthy diet but getting crazy junk food cravings and sometimes binge eating, I think whole 30 would help me with the sugar cravings. If you haven't heard about whole 30, you can check out their program rules here. If I do it, I would start tomorrow and that would most likely mean we would possibly go out for pizza and a coconut latte today.

What are your plans for this weekend?

XOXO, Lidia.
