5:40pm. It's cold and raining. I'm sprawled out on a sofa bed in my parents' living room. Sounds of Ivy and Rescue Pup fill the background. I miss my husband. ((This is the longest we've been apart since we've been together))

This weekend, we moved into our new apartment in the city. ((Columbia, SC)) He starts work at his new job tomorrow. The kids and I are back down south until next weekend. My job couldn't transfer me as fast, so the kids and I have to spend a week at my parents'.

I'm truly hoping that this week will fly by. There's still lots of unpacking to do. I still have to put up the tree and take JJ to see Santa. Most of all, I'm ready to start a new chapter of my life.

So much has happened in so little time.

It has been almost an entire week since Thanksgiving! The holiday was fun. It was great seeing my family. We got the chance to take another family portrait.

It was also the day that baby girl turned 10 months old! She's getting so big. Four teeth... Crawling and standing... Full of attitude...

I have so many more things to update you on. Soon...very soon.

008: Lifeway Kefir

Last month, I was so excited when I received a coupon to try Lifeway Kefir. I immediately went on their website to find a store that carried it. After checking three stores on the list, and coming up short... I finally found the product at Publix (which wasn't even listed on the site).

I tried it as soon as I got home. It was love at first taste! Then came the tartness. The taste of Lifeway Kefir that I could live without. For me, it was definitely a turn off.

I've been working hard to finish the bottle of Strawberry Kefir, but it's hard. I've tried it in granola...wasn't a fan of that. It was really thick and hard to swallow. I find that I like it best straight out of the bottle.

I'm excited to try recipes next. I've already started a pinboard with some ideas.

P.S. I received this product complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes.
