...in my previous post, i failed to mention the smoothies lee and i have been enjoying every night as another part of our new nightly routine...
in one of my MANY pregnancy emails i get HOURLY (haha... ok, its not quite that often, but it might as well be)... they suggested a mommy-and-baby-friendly smoothie that seemed to catch my eye...
1 frozen banana (don't let it get too frozen--i couldn't get the peel off--well, unless you're supposed to peel it first, but i didn't know if that would make it turn brown...)
frozen strawberries
vanilla yogurt
orange juice
i added extra strawberries & oj and a tad more yogurt to make enough for daddy hop... and to lessen the intensity of the banana (eek...)
they're delicious and refreshing and healthy and juuuuuust sweet enough to satisfy a sweet craving or two...
and i'll be honest--although i DOOOOOO understand the fantastic nutritional value of bananas and yogurt... i LOATHE bananas and get prettttttty tired of eating yogurt all the time (even mixing it with fruit or adding in granola...)--it just gets boring.
but these are super! i'm looking forward to venturing out and trying different kinds of fruit
and even though i did this for "baby hop" ...nershi seems to enjoy them just as good as the next guy :)

YUMMY. Smoothies were my thing last year. For some reason haven't made ONE this year. I think I forgot about them. Maybe today!!!!! I do peel my banana first. Love the pics of Nershi. Sadie would never put her whole nose into a glass. she does push it onto the glass rim and shows her teeth in hopes to reach the bottom of the glass.
LOL about the banana!!! you can definitely peel the banana first and freeze it.
You should cut the banana in fourths sometime, freeze them and eat them plain. It's like candy. O. M. G.
