Cuddle Time with My Snuggle Bug

I love cuddle time with my little munchkins!  Neva has grown to be a cuddler and Kaylee has always loved to curl up and rest in my arms.  This afternoon was no different.  Daddy had cuddle time with Neva and I with Kaylee.  She was not content in her crib, but settled right down with Mommy's arms around her.  I do cherish these moments.  They pass away too quickly!

My Experiment

Well, I have grown brave in my old age.  Okay, I'm not that old, but it seems I have broken the barrier of having to have an exact recipe to follow as I continue this journey called life.  I was craving chocolate and smoothie and needed to fill that desire.  So I look online at a friend's blog where she posted what looked like a yummy cinnamon smoothie and then I combined that recipe with another ice cream recipe I found online.  Then I just guessed how much cocoa powder to add.  I know.  Brave, huh!  For me, that is super brave.  My honey, is always telling me to experiment and try things.  Well, now that I am learning more about kitchen-y stuff I am getting better...and braver...at it.  Yay!  This is very yummy so beware.  Haha!  :)

Blend all ingredients in blender.

Neva and I enjoyed this delicious treat this afternoon.
