This past weekend was all about my little girl and making as many smiles happen as humanly possible. #priorities #nonewblogpostonMonday We hiked. We lowered the temp on the hottub and splashed around as a family. We fed peanuts to squirrels. We ate fish tacos with my inlaws. We swang at the park. And we accomplished nothing. And it was perfect... and needed.
Oh, and we ate chocolate-y peanut butter bread.
This picture makes me smile EVERY time.
I'm not gonna lie though - we've definitely been challenged recently by the "terrible twos"... which only makes these smiles (and this past weekend FULL of them) even more treasured.
The biggest battles are usually over clothing choices (like she wants to wear a sleeveless dress when it's 20 degrees outside scratch that. Most of the battles are about her wearing ANY clothes at all. She'd much prefer to run around naked for the rest of her life) or over food or ________. In the pic above, that's a sleeveless navy/white striped dress with a sweatshirt on top - so we both kind of "won." As for food, she busts into our room before it's light outside and says, "My belly's telling me I'm HUNGRY: Peanut Butter Sandwich!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" This girl would live on peanut butter sandwiches alone if I let her, which of course I don't.
No battle over this chocolate pb swirl bread though:
And seriously, why would there be? Chocolate? Peanut Butter? AND Bread? Yes, please!
Sweetened with banana puree, dates, and a bit of stevia, this bread tastes like a real treat without any guilt!
