6 Months Old Already!!

I can't believe how time flies... just yesterday these little cuties came into the world, now they are ready to take on the world!

We're so excited to be 6 months old!



What's new since we last checked in with Rocco and Roxy???


Roxanne


She might be tiny, but Roxy is already a mover and a shaker! As soon as she's on the ground she's practicing  her gymnastics floor routine... might be a future Olympic hopeful?? Weighing in at 14lbs 7oz and 25 inches long she's in the 10/25th percentile for her height and weight. Her development is right on target and in some areas a little ahead of schedule. She's a smiley girl who loves to play with her brothers and eat squash. No teeth yet but the Doctor predicts they'll peek out soon!


Rocco


Little "Beefcake" Rocco is the happiest boy on the block... most of the time. When he's not, he kind of sounds like this guy...

The Incredible Hulk

Rocco is currently weighing in at 17lbs 4oz and is 26 1/4 inches long, not quite Hulk sized, but on his way! Rocco loves playing with his big brother Furio and watching his sister scoot around the floor. He is super relaxed and very much like his big brother. He doesn't like loud noises (unless he's making them) but he loves to chatter away. Rocco also loves eating squash and oatmeal and checking out the Olympics when we have them on. I think he has his eye on power lifting! 


Furio is having so much fun with his little brother and sister. The other day he told Rocco to grow faster so they can play cars together! He also loves finding toys for Roxy to help Mommy keep her busy. 

We're pretty lucky with these three sweet (and healthy) little monkeys of ours! Our family wouldn't be complete without them!

Chocolate Covered Strawberry Pizza!

I decided to get into the kitchen and whip up something sweet... this was the end result, turned out pretty yummy!


Ingredients:


  • Sugar cookie dough (you can use store bought or the super easy recipe always use
  • Cream cheese (1 block, softened to room temperature)
  • 1/4 c. sugar
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • Fresh Strawberries
  • 1/2 c. Semi sweet chocolate chips

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Press cookie dough into a standard size cookie sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes.
2. Once the cookie has baked and is cooling, cream together cream cheese, sugar and vanilla with a mixer. 
3. When the cookie is completely cool spread cream cheese mixture on the cookie covering the whole surface. Top with strawberries.
4. Melt chocolate over a double boiler or in the microwave. Drizzle over strawberries and allow to cool.
5. Enjoy your creation and thank Nikki for the party happening in your mouth!

Ladies Night Out!

This past Saturday we had a very special ladies night out to remember a very special lady who is no longer with us. Gina, Kristine, Julee, Anna (and her Little's), Traci and I all met up for dinner to honor a beautiful lady that meant so much to us all, Shannon. For those just tuning in Shannon was my amazing doctor who passed away suddenly back in March. Since her passing I have come to meet so many great new friends! Some were patients, some were her family and some were her close friends. It has been so nice having these ladies to lean on during such a difficult loss. Friendship through tragedy...

Gina, Julee, Anna, Lyla, Landon, Kristine, myself and Traci

This was such a fun night of making new memories I can't wait to meet up every month and I look forward to our little group growing!

Roxy Got Her Ears Pierced!


Last weekend while we were in Tucson spreading some Gold Canyon love, 
Roxy got her ears pierced! They look so pretty and don't seem to bother her at all. 
Let the jewelry addiction begin!

Your Friendly Neighborhood Gold Canyon Lady!

As many of you have seen recently on Facebook I am now an Independent Fragrance Consultant with Gold Canyon!  I'm only about 2 weeks in but already I love it!

What's so great about Gold Canyon??

  • We're so much more than the worlds finest candles
  • We also offer a lot of flame less options like our Diffusers, Auto Fresheners, Scent Pod Warmers, bath and body products and our all natural cleaning products!
  • The wax used in our candles and scent pods are the best you can buy. They burn cleanly and evenly giving you more scent for your cents! 
  • The wicks used in Gold Canyon candles don't burn down like a traditional candle. Because of this trimming your wick before each use is extremely important. Not only will it ensure that you don't have a foot tall flame, it also helps your scent to last longer!
  • Dual wick technology! Because of the double wicks used in all Gold Canyon candles your scent throw is much greater. I can burn my favorite, Mimosa Rose candle downstairs and smell it upstairs! Not only our candles have the best scent throw your money can buy, but the diffusers, oil warmers and pod warmers are the same deal!
  • Our scent pods are better than any other warmers available for many reasons. All warmers come with a 4, 8 or 12 hour timer! The scent pods are offered in a huge variety of scents! Want to change scents? No scraping out hardened wax, just pop in a different pod! 
  • There is also a great line of essential oils! You can use these around the house in your cleaning, with an oil warmer, with the adapter plate in your pod warmer, in your little scent mate, or sprinkle a few drops on your air filters and scent your home every time your A/C or heat kicks on!

Why do I Sell Gold Canyon?
  • I love the flexibility it offers. I work when I have time to!
  • Along with a commission I also earn bonuses and free products!
  • The products sell themselves, everyone loves Gold Canyon.
  • I love getting out of the house and sharing these amazing products with others!
  • After losing over 150lbs I have a large amount of excess skin that must be removed. This is not something that insurance pays for! The extra money I earn with Gold Canyon goes into the skin removal fund.
