| "I'm crashing the WIAW party this week!" |
Let's jump right into my gluten-free, vegan food for the day, and join me this week to see what my 13 month old ate (besides her usual multiple nursing sessions!).
 |
| 8:00AM Breakfast: Chocolate Ice Cream Smoothie Chia seeds, hemp seeds, raw cacao powder, rice milk, 2 frozen bananas, 5 frozen strawberries |
 |
| Avery had some organic strawberries for breakfast. She loves these things right now! |
 |
| Of course she had to wash it down with some of my Chocolate Ice Cream Smoothie! |
 |
| Then while playing in the living room, we were greeted by this bird that was determined to try and get in our house! He just kept hanging out on our windowsill and flying up against the window. Thanks for the entertainment little guy! |
Workout: 1 hour yoga with "The Skinnygirl Workout" with Bethenny Frankel.
 |
| Post-workout snack: 1 banana |
 |
| 12:30 PM: Check out this fancy lunch...sike! Just leftovers. Kind of a random combo: Vegan Garlic Cream Cheese pasta from Vegan Food: More Than Tofu and Sprouts, steamed broccoli with Cheddar Dayia cheese, and Vegan Pizza Quinoa Casserole from Peas & Thank You. |
 |
| Dessert: Chocolate Chip Blondies (actually made from chickpeas) from Chocolate-Covered Katie topped with this sugar-free, vegan frosting. |
 |
| A fork and bowl always excites her at lunch. |
 |
| Trying hard to keep that foot under the table, but someone was not wanting to. |
Then I broke out my air popper and popped some popcorn, which I let her get messy with (and of course...eat!). It was her first time having popcorn, and she loved it! I didn't add any oil, butter or salt, just plain, air-popped, organic popcorn.
 |
| "Do you guys know about this popcorn stuff? It's awesome!" |
Then we played with our front door. Yes, you read that right, we played with our front door. She's really into doors right now and she loves to open and close them over and over, and over again!
 |
| "Who's there?" |
 |
| "Oh, it's just me!" |
 |
| 3:30 Afternoon snack: Rudi's Multigrain gluten-free toast with organic strawberry spread and Earth Balance vegan butter. |
 |
| Apparently I made the toast look "too good" in the picture because someone just had to get their hands on it! |
So she joined me for a piece of toast with a little strawberry jelly too.
 |
| "I love toast!" (See that bump on her eyebrow, well that was some "door fun" gone bad. Sometimes she's a little too strong for the door! |
 |
| "I also like watching the dogs outside." |
 |
| Just hanging out with my girl. |
 |
| Wanna see what we call "Avery-geddon?" Check out our living room after a day of playing. Her new play area is the couch, and we take off the cushions and she loves' "bouncing around" on it. Like her pose? "Yeah, I conqured this couch!" |
 |
| 5:00 Afternoon Snack #2: "Chocolate Vanilla Smoothie": vanilla coconut milk, Chocolate Sun Warrior Rice Protein Powder, spinach, 1 1/2 frozen bananas, 3 frozen strawberries Avery got several sips of this too. |

| 6:00 PM: "Green Juice" (apple juice + green powder) |
 |
| 7:00 PM Dinner: Sol Cuisine Original Burger.with Vegan BBQ Baked Beans and Alexia Waffle Sweet Potato Fries |
 |
| Dessert: Oops, I did it again! Another frosted Chocolate Chip Blondie from Chocolate-Covered Katie. What can I say? I'm on summer vacation! |
 |
| You know Avery loved this dinner. |
 |
| "Beans and sweet potatoes, my favorite!" |
 |
| Then she headed off for a walk with her Grandma and Grandpa... |
 |
| ...and I got to work on getting this post ready for you! |
Well we'll see you all next week for some more Ash & Avery WIAW fun!
