September

September is here, and with it comes cooler weather, vivid colors, and pumpkin.  I am so excited for the turn of the seasons this year.  I can't wait to take Baby Max to his first pumpkin patch, make some really yummy pumpkin dishes, and decorate for Halloween.  This is going to be a great fall, and hopefully a great time in my life. 

With only a few months away from turning 41, I really have to buckle down and start doing something.  The weight is still hanging around, the disorganization, the messes, and feeling like I have no control over anything has to stop.  Soon!! Today!! 

So today I am going to try to make September one of the best months ever starting with a healthier eating plan.  (again).  One of these days someone is going to read this and say wow she finally got it together.  :) With a healthier eating plan, it seems that other things fall into place.  Meal planning, grocery shopping, decluttering and keeping things organized.  And it all has to start with me! 

I wish I could be one of those stay at home moms that post beautiful DIY crafts and make wonderful healthy meals with their children.  I feel so lacking in the home department, and sometimes even my work is disorganized and messy.  I guess I am so down on my self because it seems that I never really get any kudos for the things I do get done.  So I am going to list my kudos for this last week:

I took Baby Max on a road trip to see his great grandma.  Memories for grandma and me...

I got the baby up, dressed, diaper changed, diaper bag packed, lunch made and didn't forget anything.  All week!! 

I made dinner twice, the rest of the time was sandwiches and mac and cheese, buy hey I didn't eat out. 

I didn't run out of milk this week.  Go me!!  Meal planning at it's best. 

So now on to try and add a few more minutes of cooking, and organizing to my nightly routine.  With healthy eating I should have some more energy to do this. 

How do you other mom's keep it all together?
