Hard Working Mommy Blogger Award

I completely forgot that I received an award last week from Michelle over at All home Cooking. Luckily I remembered before it got to be too late! So first off, thank you Michelle for thinking of me! If you haven't check out Michelle's blog yet, I highly advise you do! She has some tasty and yummy treats on her site. She also has some very valuable and helpful information about cooking on a budget, especially when it comes to whole foods!

Guidelines for this award are:
1) accept award
2) Post award image and a link back to me!
3) Award seven bloggers this wonderful award and let them know they got it!

I will try to pick blogs I haven't highlighted or awarded before...so here goes!
1) Lori at Teacher Turned Mommy. I love reading about her boys and she even shares tasty recipes!
2) Bee at Simply Bee Happy, she is new to the blogging world, but I love her daily goals!
3) Heather at Acting Balanced
4) D at Picture Yourself at Home. D is currently trying to find a way to become a sahm to her two sweet girls! Join her on her adventure and perhaps if you are in the area, she can do portraits for you! And anyone who is a sahm knows how hard it can be sometimes esp in this economy!
5) Kelle at Enjoying the Small Things. I LOVE LOVE LOVE reading her entries. She takes incredible pictures, is a beautiful writer, and has gorgeous children. She does amazing things for all her parties.
6)This amazing mama feeds her family of 4 on a budget of $25 a week! I'm still trying to figure it out! Feeding Four

and one more award!

I received this one last week I believe from Hallee over at Hallee the Homemaker. Sorry that it got lost in the jumble of life Hallee! Thank you so much for the honor!

The origin of this award can be found here along with the rules. One of the rules is to pass it along to 7 fellow bloggers...this is getting tough for me! But these are the blogs I frequent the most and someday I will get around to adding new blogs again and have time to read them!

Kreativ Blogger Award!

I received another award! This time it comes from Michelle over at All Home Cooking. All Year Long. Michelle and I are on the same mission and I enjoy reading and seeing her recipes! Thank you Michelle!

As usual, this award comes with some guidelines. I am to share this award with other bloggers and share 7 things about me, you may not know. 

Here is my list of 7 things about me:

1. I have cloth diapered my children for 2 years(Q since he was born). I never knew that I would LOVE it so much and it became quite the addiction!

2. I love to read...just wish I had more time to do it!

3. I never thought I'd be on a mission to cut out processed foods and look for new things to cook the way I have been.

4. Can make just about anything except up until recently I couldn't make blondies/chocolate chip bars. I either over cooked them or burned the edges and had a gooey center.

5. My mom asked, if when I was younger if I'd eat the stuff I give my kids, I told her probably not. But its all my kids know. Apparently, I must feed them odd stuff, is it odd?

6. Most of my friends are from college and the closest one lives 45 mins away, wish we could all move into a neighborhood together!

7. K and I will be married for 5 years in July.

I am also passing this award onto:

Hallee over at Hallee the Homemaker

Jess at Creatively WIC

Andrea at Andrea the Kitchen Witch

Kim at What's Cooking at my house
