Isn't he handsome?

A look into my life come 9:00 on an average evening:

As many of you know, when Ellie Kate was born, Ben and I committed to eating healthier and more natural. While we have done a pretty good job and love this special gift we are giving to our children, there are a few things we just can't give up!

For me, its Jelly Belly jelly beans. Thanks to my big brother, Neal, who always had them stashed in his bedside drawer, I will be forever enslaved to these tasty delights.

For Ben, its double stuffed Oreo cookies. Oh, and it has to be with a mug of cold milk. He just can't do without.

However, with every dark cloud, there is always a silver lining, and this predicament is no different. First of all, when devouring these delectable morsels of undiscipline, we always wait until the kids are in bed. Second, I did give up Jelly Bellys while I was pregnant. And lastly, but certainly not least, my hubby does look pretty good eating those Oreos. I guess if he can accept my undying love of gourmet jelly candies, I can overlook his obsession with chocolate cookies filled with creme filling - as long as there are no crumbs in the sheets.
