We've been making muffins a lot lately. A couple of weeks ago I made these:



These are crazy sugar and butter filled blueberry muffins from The Best Recipe. They didn't even taste like muffins, more like blueberry cupcakes. They were delicious. I'd call these weekend muffins.

These I have made twice now:



Healthy Banana Bran Flax Muffins from the Vegetarian Times. They're pretty good too, and far more appropriate for weekdays.


L surprised me last week when I made the Banana muffins by telling me he liked them a lot more than the blueberry muffins. I guess butter and sugar cannot over power texture. He likes frozen and fresh blueberries, but cooked within something... not so much.

We were lucky today to have temperatures in the 60's and spent a couple of hours at the playground. This time around there were a couple of playground items I could no longer fit in/on. We were planning on doing the same tomorrow, but I just noticed we're expecting rain and thunderstorms along with the warmth.

I'm feeling good, drinking lots and lots of water trying to stay hydrated. The baby is moving around a lot, and feeling much more "there" (larger). L finally got to feel the baby moving. He's not as impressed as we are, but who can blame him. He is still very much hoping for a girl. When he was asked if he wanted a sister or brother at the chiropractor last week he said, "I'm not caring about a little brother, I'm caring about a little sister." I talk to him a lot about how wonderful either one will be, but I think he'll just have to experience it himself.
