Ina's First Tooth!

It's Friday!  Woohoo!

After months and months of claiming that Ina is teething with nothing to show for it, I can finally announce that she has a tooth!  I can barely see it, but when I stick my (clean) finger in her mouth I can feel its rough edge.  

Teething requires extra cuddles.

Ina prefers to cuddle with her dad.  To say I am jealous would be an understatement.  When he is home she must know where he is at all times.  Even when she is eating, she is constatnly stopping and turning her head the other way to make sure Dan is still there.  

Dan says he wants to have a shirt made that says, "My daughter loves me more than breast milk."

Sigh.  

Confession - my vacation eating crept into my week after vacation eating and before I knew it I was eating frozen pizza for dinner and having (unmeasured) amounts of Blue Bell for dessert. 

Don't worry, when I stepped on the scale at my Weight Watchers meeting yesterday I was quickly brought back to reality.  (The topic of the meeting was vacation eating - how appropriate.)

I came home determined to make this week healthier and Simply Filling makes that so easy!

Breakfast - 3 eggs scrambled with corn, pepper, onion, tomato, and blackbeans with a side of strawberries

Lunch: quinoa with black beans and BBQ sauce, peppers, and left over grilled chicken

Snack: cherries

Dinner: honey sesame chicken following this recipe with quinoa and some steamed frozen veggies

Dessert: a few bites from Dan's cereal bowl and a handful of butterscotch chips

Exercise

Yesterday was a rest day, but Ina and I did get out for a 2.5 mile walk with the stroller.  She loved being able to hold my water bottle and stare at the cars as they drove by.  

I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
