Skylor and I are in the process of using up all of our pantry/food storage food so we are getting a little creative with our meals ;) I was sick of eating random stuff/toast for breakfast so I whipped up these bran muffins on Sunday and I've eaten like most of them so far haha (I'm a freak, who even likes bran muffins that much?!) But they are pretty tasty, filling and only have 160 calories per serving. So yes. I'm lovingggg them! I had this box of bran cereal and desperately needed to find a way to use it because I wasn't down to eat it like normal for some reason. I blame pregnancy. Anywho, if you have some bran flakes that you want to get out of your pantry, this is the perfect solution! They're so easy to make and you can freeze them for up to 3 months.

Just a reminder that I am giving away a $75 PinkBlush gift card away over on my instagram! The contest goes until August 3 so there's still a few more days! The gift card can be used for their maternity clothes or their regular clothing line :)

Get ready for picture OVERLOAD people. Haha, sorry but we are just so dang excited! We have been waiting and waiting to find out our baby's gender and last Thursday we were like all heart-eyes in the doctor's office. Baby Steed is a BOY! I cannot even tell you how excited we both are! People have been asking me why I wanted to have a boy first... and well I guess there are two reasons. First of all, I cannot wait to have a mini Skylor hanging out with me all day! I'm just day dreaming about what he is gonna look like and be like!! Secondly, its because I love having older brothers.... I may not have always liked it (ammiright?) but, I love know that I can always count on them to be there for me and to support me. I wanted my other kids to have that too. Lil boyfriend passed his ultrasound with flying colors! He seems to be healthy so far and we are SO grateful. The best thing about our appointment was that our sweet ultrasound tech told us that he had a brain, heart, two arms, 10 fingers, two feet and 10 toes. HE'S SO CUTE IN THERE. We have obviously got lots to do before December, but we cannot wait until this guy arrives! I'm nervous and excited all at the same time. Being a parent seems scary! Skylor and I had a good time taking these pics in the park haha. We set up our tripod & our self timer rocked it. The best part about the whole thing was all of the random people catching Pokemon around us ;) On a totally different note, I have been DYING to wear this PinkBlush Maternity dress. It fit my growing belly like a boss and I couldn't be happier that I snagged it! I wanted us to look semi-dressed up in our pics and it did the trick perfectly. I've been feeling a little large, and NOT in charge (of my weight) the past little while. Even so, this dress is so flattering and made me feel pretty. Most of my clothes, definitely do not make me feel that way. I absolutely love the lace detailing on this dress! I barely even accessorized just because I feel like this dress makes enough of a statement on its own. Soooo because I love this dress from PinkBlush so much, I'm doing a giveaway on my instagram! Go check it out on @eatglitterallday to see more details!
This Cooking Light masterpiece recipe has been our favorite for the past couple of years (or like basically since we have been married and I graduated from making strictly Hamburger Helper... haha definitely a step up!) There's no sauce on this bad boy, it is pretty nontraditional! If you're willing to try something different, we can be best friends forever. And food doesn't make me want to die every second now, so let's celebrate with some pizza. This recipe comes in two parts- the dough and the toppings/baking instructions. This does take a least a little planning ahead... the dough takes about 30 minutes to rise (well worth the wait!) We love adding the spicy turkey sausage to ours... pork sausage also works though. Andddd cherry tomatoes are preferable, but we are kinda cheap and just cut up roma tomatoes ;) Oooooh and last pointer.... this recipe is turns out the best on a pizza stone if you have one. Ours is well loved (as you can see haha) but a regular pizza pan will work too. Recipe from The Best of Cooking Light Dough Ingredients:

We nom HARD on this pizza. Seriously, Sky and I never leave left overs haha. I love that there's no sauce (I'm not a huge tomato sauce fan anyways). Its a little spicy and we freaking love it.
Let me know if you give this recipe a try, I wanna know what you think!! It's been a hot minute since I have posted a recipe on hurr. Mostly because most food has made me want to just die lately haha! Fortunately, I've been able to eat fruit like a boss almost the entire time. We bought a watermelon a little bit ago and didn't cut it out of laziness. When we finally did, it wasn't the sweetest one ever so I obviously mixed it with berries and drank it instead. It's been so hot lately that this is the perfect summa drink! Even when the watermelon wasn't the freshest, it still tasted dang good. Let me know if you try it and what you think! The lime in here though is the most brilliant thing about it. SO GOOD. Ingredients:
Directions:
We just got back from Houston, Texas so that we could get our visas for Denmark! I'm literally freaking out. We leave in about a month and a half and we have SO. MUCH. TO. DO. We still need to pack up our entire apartment, sell of some extra furniture, sell both our cars and move everything into storage. YIKES. Also, we totally still need to find a place to live in Copenhagen haha. Oh gosh we are crazy for just going over! I am so freaking excited, literally cannot wait for this next adventure. How cute is my babe? We got to go to the Houston Space Center using our Houston CITYPasses (best way to visit a city). This is the rocket, Saturn V. We literally couldn't believe how massive this rocket was!
