Too Much

I may have mentioned this...


If I haven't mentioned it, then you may have caught on anyway...


But, this little sassafras
lola
Is a little bit (read: a lot) spoiled!

I know I blogged about how she didn't need anymore toys for Christmas.

Well this is how the toy situation stands post Christmas...
toys
AND pre-birthday! (Lord help us, we may have to add on to the house!)

I swear that on any given day she has a third of these toys out and strewn all over the darn house. I actually did a round-up of toys today and I had to gather up three armloads of toys!


I know, I know. Many of you are saying "Why don't you get rid of some of those?". She actually plays with them all. There will be things I forgot we had and I will see it sitting on the floor of some room. I have made a decision that we do not repair toys that get torn or worn out anymore (unless they are really important ones because we have a hierarchy of toys here in this house you know).

And I know everyone says their kid is super smart, but let me tell you that this pup actually knows the name (the name I've given to the toy) to almost each and everyone of those toys! I say Go find your purple elephant (because we have pink ones too) and she comes back with the purple elephant! Smarty pants! Correction: Spoiled Smarty Pants!

I think it is wonderful that she has a selection. I mean think of it as shoes for you...Wouldn't you get tired of the same 3 or 4! She would too...

Winston sits right up there with Lola on toys. Actually we now have 3 baskets that hold his toys in the house. He even has multiple of the same toy b.c he loves it so much!

Swiss Oatmeal {Copy Cat Recipe}

I'm obsessed with Swiss Oatmeal.  I particularly love   Corner Bakery's Swiss Oatmeal.  If you are not familiar with Swiss Oatmeal, it is a cold oatmeal cereal with fruit and nuts. I've had a similar recipe for years, but it was only similar.  It wasn't close enough for my liking.  So I finally set out into the land of Pinterest to find a recipe that was a good Copy Cat.  I found a few, combined them and came up with what I think is a very close Copy Cat Recipe of Corner Bakery's Swiss Oatmeal. Here's what I do (note, this recipe is really just pictures, because I don't really have measurements for these things.  The photos aren't great, but it's easier if I show you what I do)... Here's the Phase 1 ingredients...   Milk Honey Yogurt (I use a vanilla greek yogurt) Oats (old fashioned, not quick...you probably could do steel cut too)    I've simplified this to where you only need a bowl and a spoon for Phase 1 becau
