For the past 3 or so weeks we have been trying to cut out processed foods. I have been using a lot of recipes off this blog: http://www.100daysofrealfood.com/real-food-resources/. I was preparing myself for a battle with the children (and even Jason) because the kids really like their "kid" foods and in the past I have always had to make them their own dinner as they would never eat what we were eating. I have been very surprised that they have actually loved most of the food and I feel so much better about what they are eating. Even Jason has liked almost all the food we've been eating. Today is day 7 of me cutting out all sugar and white flour and it's amazing, I really don't crave anything anymore. It's great not counting calories and only having to make one meal that we all eat together.
The boys have been doing great. They still LOVE preschool and they have gotten much better at playing together. Of course they still fight a lot, but that's to be expected with brothers. Sam still watches out for his little brother and takes care of him. Noah has made a lot of progress with talking lately. He still has a ways to go, but he is definitely making progress! They are both such sweeties, we can't go anywhere without people commenting on how cute they are, mostly because Noah smiles at everyone and then Sam has his cute little shy faces. Double the work but also double the cuteness :)
