I haven’t been posting lately because well, life gets in the way and stuff happens. I’ve been very busy the last few days with the kids going back to school, Wayne is working over time Cooperators, and I’ve been delegated taking the kids back and forth to their activities.
Fortunately, this is Daniel’s last week of tackle football. He has three more football practices and his last game will be this weekend at University of Regina. Despite football being over in the next week, hockey season will start picking up. Oh the joy! Hockey tryouts for Atom will start next week and will last for two weeks. After that it’ll be a break as the teams are picked and then hockey will begin until the end of March 2011.
This year Daniel will be playing in Atom Tier III. This will be his last year of Atom and then next year he’ll be playing Pee Wee division. Joshua will be in his second year of Learn to Play Hockey. We were going to put Andrew into LTP, but he just started getting comfortable in skates and we don’t want to push him to hard. LTP will be one hour sessions twice a week. Last year, Joshua absolutely loved being on a team and playing hockey. Last Spring he was outside playing hockey with the hockey net on the driveway. A few times I would play with him and he would practice being goalie. He already has set in his mind that he wants to be a goalie. Well good for him on giving goals for himself! LOL One time while we were outside playing hockey and he was goalie he said to me and I quote “Mommy, you need to shot high, for you to be a star!” Ummm, I’m still trying to figure out if he meant that I need to score goals a lot to be a star or I need to shot the puck higher. I don’t know, but it made me laugh for a few days.
Anyways, today was a day that I wanted to have a doughnut! Oh no, a doughnut! I had a doughnut over the weekend and it tasted so good! I normally don’t eat doughnuts and when it was presented to me, I ate one with great satisfaction! Well, since I’m trying to eat better I search on OhSheGlows.com for a recipe. I lucked out because Angela did have a recipe for doughnuts called Low Fat Banana Baked Doughnuts.

So, first I mashed my bananas up…
Don’t my bananas look pretty!
Then I added the rest of the wet ingrediants. I know the recipe called for two egg whites, but I used one whole egg. I was just to lazy to do the whole separate thing…
Add the brown sugar and mix!
Then add all the dry ingrediants and mix well…
Let the batter sit for five minutes. Then start making doughnuts!!!
Doesn’t that look pretty!
Then pop in them into the oven at 425 degrees for seven to eight minutes!
Sprinkle cinnamon and sugar and viola…doughnuts! My sprinkling needs some work lol
And here’s the finished product! I haven’t tried one yet, but I know they’re good because I’m an awesome cook! Even though I’m the only one that eats my healthy cooking…
So, after running the half marathon last Sunday, I wanted to treat myself to some new running gear. I wanted to get a couple new shorts to wear for running. I know some people like wearing running capris, running tights, or running pants, but I’m one that actually likes to wear shorts running. I find wearing shorts while I run a lot better because its more breathable, I feel that I get more running/leg action, and I perform better. But that’s just me.
Yesterday, I went to Sportchek. Sportchek is a retail store that carries everything sport. From bikes, hockey gear, shoes, and apparel. It has everything. Well, I found two Nike shorts and a top for sale while I was at Sportchek. They are spring/summer stuff, but I don’t care because I’ll be doing most of my running inside during the winter months. I never run outside during the winter because Saskatchewan winter’s are bitterly cold and unbearable.
With the help of my two little boys I was able to get a few pictures of my new stuff! Check them out!!!'
Joshua took this picture. It’s not bad, but the lighting wasn’t that great and I notice that Joshua’s finger is in the way. I am wearing everything Nike except for my socks. The socks are from the Running Room.
Here’s a better picture. Andrew is with me this time. Notice that mark on the middle of his forehead. This morning he was playing downstairs and he tripped and banged his head on the corner of the wall. He has a big goose egg, but he’s a trouper!
The shorts I’m wearing are Nike and they are awesome! Their called Tempo Running shorts and they are very comfortable and have a built in underwear bottom. Kind of like boys/men swimming trunks.
The top I’m wearing is…
Lululemon!!! I got this top about a year ago and its my favourite top to use when I workout, especially running. Of course you can’t see the label because of the stupid lighting. I also wanted to get a picture of my back because I’ve been noticing lately that I’m getting some really nice definition in my back. Thank you Ballet Body!!!
Last but not least a picture of me on my treadmill. I didn’t know my boys had the camera with them and they took a pic of me in the zone.
I must say though that my boys take very good pictures! It’s funny because I feel more comfortable getting my picture taken from them then anyone else. Maybe because you know they won’t judge or they just do anything I tell them without hesitation! LOL
That’s it for now!
