Sprouts Snacks + a Giveaway

Getting Molly to eat healthy nutritious foods is sometimes a challenge. She eats her fair share of tomatoes and avocado with the occasional green bean or two thrown in but thats about it. She doesn't eat bad by any  stretch but getting those greens in can sometimes be a problem. I often go to smoothies to sneak in some kale and spinach but those aren't great options for when we are on the go. I might have found a solution though! New toddler snacks from Sprout Organic Foods!

When I heard about these I knew that Molly would most likely devour them and I love all the great healthy ingredients. 

The Fruit & Veggie Crispy Chews are my favorite because they look like fruit snacks but they pack of punch of good stuff! With combinations like Orange Fruit & Carrot and Red Berry & Beet I can sneak fruits and veggies into Molly's diet without have to beg her to eat something. Win!

The real test came when Sprout Organic Foods sent us some to try out.



When Molly woke up from her nap I set these out for part of her snack. She went right for them, even bypassing the teddy grahams and her favorite - goldfish!



Toddler approved!



We went through the samples that Sprout Organic Foods sent us in two days! I then ran out and grabbed a couple boxes to keep on hand. They are now a permanent fixture in our snack rotation and I love that I can feel good about what I am giving her to munch on.

Their snacks are made with certified organic ingredients and contain no preservatives, artificial colors, flavors or other additives. I love that! You can find more information on their website about all the great  essential vitamins and other health facts that are part of their foods. Plus you know they will taste good because they come straight from Chef Tyler Florence's kitchen!

Lately Recap

Happy Monday all! Instead of doing a weekend recap (it wasn't all that exciting) I thought I would do a lately recap. We have been busy and on the go a lot lately but no one thing is really worthy of a post by itself, so lets combine!

With Summer officially here we are outside a lot! Between zoo trips, park trips, local market trips and the good ol' backyard its hard to find us inside. But thats how we like it!

Last weekend we hit up the local farmers market down the road. Its a small market but it has great vendors, plus food trucks!





And delicious popsicles! Molly, aka The Joker, thought they were pretty yummy.





Our haul. Not much but its quality not quantity.

We also went to our annual Texas Rangers game a few weeks back. We like to try and go before the summer heat really sets in.



Lets see, what else? Oh! We started up a kickball team with a bunch of friends and its a blast! We play on Tuesday nights and if the games are early enough the kiddos get to come and watch. Go One Kick Wonders!!



Chase and I got dressed up for his high school reunion and had a blast! Plus Molly got her first ice cream truck experience and devoured a Bomb Pop. Yum!





Summer chores have also started. Got to put them to work early right. Its about time she pulls her weight around here.



And our first child got her summer cut. It must be getting hot!



And finally, to this past weekend. We enjoyed a beautiful evening at the Dallas Arts District block party. There were about 30 food trucks lining the streets, a nice cool(ish) breeze and gorgeous views of the skyline. And lots of space for Molly to run run run.



And for my two goofballs to hang out.



So here we are. All caught up. I must say, life is pretty good lately.

Have a great week!

Are All Toddlers This Goofy?

Every day I am surprised by how goofy my child is. Her sense of humor cracks me up and she is always up to something new. And usually entertaining. When looking back over my photos from the last couple months I found some real gems so I thought I would share them.





















Never a dull moment around here. And I think I know where she gets it....
