Happily Balanced

Well what do you know, there actually isn't too much extra this week. I really think that going to the farmers market, with lots of reusable bags, and not buying any packaged snack (ok, except pretzels for the boys' school snack) really did make a difference.

Now, the boys were definitely not that thrilled that I didn't come home with any ice cream or chips but they made it. And this week when we (my mom & me) came home from shopping without any chips Tyler broke down and had some blueberries.

Both Tyler and Dylan ate at least twice as much fruit today as they had been eating, which definitely made me happy.

As you can see, there are still wrappers in the trash, like the Hershey's kiss bag. So we're still not perfect and I very much doubt we ever will be. But I'd like to think that we're happily balanced.
