We have stitched together a hike on Knox Mountain that we call the Kathleen Hill Loop. It takes about an hour when carrying your little one and burns approximately 500 calories because of it's steep pitches. It's great hike when you're short on time but want to get a great workout.

Homemade Healthy Waffles: Recipe Included.

All ingredients are organic and purchased from Nature's Fare off Highway 97. PRO TIP: I use a sauce brush to add butter and syrup to my waffles to minimize how much I put on.

1 1/4 cups All Purpose Flour
3/4 cup Golden Flax Meal
1/2 cup Almond Meal
1/4 cup buttermilk powder
1 tsp cinnamon (optional)
4 tsps baking powder
Mix all these ingredients together in a large mixing bowl. In a separate smaller bowl beat the eggs with a whisk then add the rest of the ingredients listed.

2 whole eggs, 1 egg yolk
1 tblsp sourcream (optional, helps make them fluffier)
1 1/2 cups milk

Mix the liquid ingredients together then whisk into the larger mixing bowl and whisk everything together. I use about 3/4 of a cup of mix per waffle in my Oster waffle iron. PRO TIP: Once I've made my daughter's waffle (12 month old) I add 1 tsp of salt and 1 tsp of almond essence to the mix for myself and my wife.

Prenatal vitamins are worth the money and should be continued even after you have your baby. I personally take Lorna Vanderhaeghe Smart Prenatal. It is $35.99 at the SAV-ON off 97 but just next door at Nature's Fare I bought the exact same vitamin in the same quantity for $25. It wasn't on sale so you should expect it to always be $10 less at Nature's Fare.
