Caroline's 2nd birthday was a hit! She loves to say "Elmo" whenever she sees a character so picking a theme was easy. There are tons of ideas on Pinterest but we wanted to keep it simple and Courtney wanted to be very involved in the decorations! I found cute favor boxes, plates, cups and bowls at the Target $1 bins!! The Elmo and Oscar the Grouch faces using tomatoes, carrots, olives and grapes cme from Pinterest. An easy, entertaining craft for 2-6 year olds included crown and flower foam and lots of stickers!! The Elmo present tub was an idea from Pinterest which Courtney completed on her own...while I supervised and washed dishes. Grammie made the fabulous cake and shirts!! It was a fun, family event with grandparents, cousins and aunts!! Now it's time to plan Courtney's 7th birthday, which is in September...she has decided on a Frozen theme and has already made specific cake requests to Grammie!!

As a result, I didn't lose weight, I was tired and I was somewhat depressed as I missed the time and luxury of going to the gym before they were born. Then a friend posted her results from 21 Day Fix and I asked he...
