I had my evening all planned out in my head! It was going to be great! Kids to bed, hang out with the hubby for a bit and shower followed by some planner time!

Sounds like a amazing night…. Right?

So what happened will blow your mind. I still can’t get over it and it’s making mommy a little ok a lot emotional!

Hi good morning and welcome to Classy Classic’s By Kandis. Oh the blog today is not what it was supposed to be! It was going to be that start to a beautiful 3 week layout of routines. Followed by a new updated block system.

Now I’m sitting on the couch with a stupid cast on, waiting for October 2nd to come. We are heading out at 6:30 am to head to the hospital to get my cast changed or possibly off and into the boot!

Yap mama fractured her foot!!!

How you may ask? Well I’ll tell you, you won’t believe it, I still hardly believe it myself.

Sitting on the bed about 9:30 all the kids are in bed, I always hang out for a bit before getting into the shower in case the baby gets up. Hoping for the best I did about 10 minutes in my planner and was just telling the my hubby I should get into the shower.

That is when Dawsyn the baby starting making noise. I know he’s 8 months I should be letting him cry for a bit, let him learn to go to sleep. Its hard for me sometimes.
So upstairs I go. Grab my baby sit on the chair, and nurse him as I get him back to at least lala land.

It has been almost impossible for me not to fall asleep getting him to bed, being all comfy and warm. So much love and comfort from the little one. That was a mistake this round! A big, big mistake!

All of a sudden I wake up, think to my self damnit all I wanted was to hang out with my husband and have a nice shower. I went and feel asleep again.
Baby asleep in my arms, I get up to get him to bed and go from there. Knowing I missed my whole night and not super happy with that. Still partly asleep I go!

Up we go, now the rocking chair is literally about 3 steps from the crib! That’s all 1 step 2 step 3 step done. Nope didn’t make it.

I get up 1 step, 2 step and that was it. As I stepped on my left foot, I felt it roll under me. The side with my pinky toe I feel my foot roll, and then the rest of my foot goes under to. A full step on my top of the foot. It was so painful, I caught myself, and took that 3rd step.
Can not believe still I didn’t drop the baby!

Got the baby in bed and yes he woke up slightly! He went back to sleep, trying not to cry, and wake him up, I knew something was bad!
Got downstairs, wanted a smoke but my foot hurt that bad! Into my bedroom I go, managed to get my pajamas on and into bed. Keeping on my socks as my foot was so sore already and oh so cold.

Husband is asleep, I crawl into bed. It hurt so bad, I was so cold and worried!
There is no way that I broke it! I keep telling myself it will be ok. I can’t believe I did that!
Why did I do that?
How is that supposed to happen?
Why on earth did my foot break?

It’s ok, it’s not broke! All I could tell myself as I try to fall asleep!

I hear the baby in the monitor, I sit up and it hurts still! I look at the clock it tells me it’s 4:30am!
Ok my foot will hurt I tell myself it only happened a couple hours ago! I get out of bed and start to cry. I drag my butt out.

Hubby gets up with me, he looks at my foot swelling, and I tell him what happened. Baby went quiet, and I try to get back to the bed. I make it to the foot of my bed sweating. I’m going to puke I say as he goes to get me a pot. Poor guy sure not what he expected I tell you.

“Your going to the doctors in the morning” he tells me! I laugh at him! Literally I did. How do you want me to go to the doctor with 2 kids when I can’t walk! Laying down the alarms start going off, as I’m up at 5:30am to get things ready for him to go to physio every morning.

Baby wakes up, he gets the baby for me which is not easy for him as he can’t bend his knee still from the accident! He brought me the baby and I lay down with him and nurse him as the three of us fall back to sleep.

It’s 7:45 Oh crap Derryck we have to get up. We are late as I start to panic again. He gets the kids up and brings me coffee tho!
“Where is mom, why are we late”! Kids don’t get why dad is there and I’m not. As he explains to them that mommy hurt herself and I’m in bed and heading to the doctor that morning.

Kids are off to school, I get things lined up to take the little ones to the city, Derryck calls the doctors and off we go.
My doctors is amazing and will always fit us in to see the doctors. They didn’t know what to think with him calling for me as its me that calls lol.

Off we go to the doctors he asked how I was my response ” freaking horrible, and yourself”. To the hospital for x-rays and a soft cast. Now I’m really mad. Who has time for this not me as my list of stuff to do is flying through my head!

Ok got in and done now to the foot doctor, he also asking how I was with the same response lol.
I broke the side of my foot right under where the little toe goes to the foot.
It’s not broke it’s fractured I corrected him, as it did not move shift nothing. Its not broke I keep telling him. He said I win that fight and he will let me go with that lol. Yeah me on that one.

One week I go back. 7 whole days with crutches and a mad mom. He says one week and the cast will go to a hard or into a walking boot. Well it’s the boot I tell him, we will cut this down by as many weeks as we can Yes! I was in and out with a cast in no time, tell the ladies I’m sending my hubby in to pay as I forgot my wallet. Have a little chit chat with how it’s not broke and cracked and I win that one also haha.

So there you have it. How my nice chill, me time night turned into at least a week of mommy on the couch, and mad.
Who brakes their foot putting a baby to bed? It happens more then I thought I also found out.

Thsts the story behind what i did. Stay tuned I will keep you updated on the healing. I will also share what I’m eating and doing or not doing the first week  with foods we are having trying to get this better fast.

Make sure you follow me on Instagram under Kandis Blask and Facebook at classyclassicsbykandis for more pictures, updates and lots of fun posts.

Till next week have a great day, painless night and an amazing week. Have a wonderful one and I will write soon!

Good morning and welcome to Classy Classic’s By Kandis! This past two weeks sure have been busy, with the not so nice August weather, trying to camp, while taking on a special secret mission it’s gotten busier then normal.

I have slipped on my meals and planning, while it really shows, I thought this would be the best time to eat down not only the fridge and pantry, but the freezers as well!

This week as it will be full steam ahead I thought I would share our meals being pulled from the freezer and either combined to make a meal or used as a meal! With being on the go it is mostly going to be suppers. There will some other meals, however breakfast and lunch are usually something pulled from the fridge or panrty. 

I am down the two oldest for a couple more days, so it’s easy to feed the toddler.

So if your ready I’m ready let’s dive into this week’s meals, and what I can do from the lost world of the freezers! 😂❤

So lets start with good old monday! Masyn my toddler is on a dry cereal kick right now, so breakfast is taken care of lol. One morning we had Saskatoon berry waffles, from the freezer.

Anywho back to Monday. I had pulled a container of chilli out, put it into a pot of water up unthaw and off we went to work on our mission. This worked put great as we didn’t get home till after 6:00 pm!

Tuesday rolled around, as I was home that days, however not any slower I spent the day in the garden getting products picked. This turned into a busy day, with mommy stating to feel under the weather again ( I got a sinus infection/head cold) there was not much happening that evening. I decided to do chilli stuffed grilled cheese! We needed to use up the little left over chilli and it was the perfect quick and easy.

Sorry with no pictures as it got eaten faster and my brain power was slow lol.

Wednesday was a slower day as i was still under the weather, I had some garden stuff to get at to clean and prep, for drying and/ or bagged for the freezer. We had to run out and grab some stuff, so again we were not around till late. This one was a later night and not feeling good, and being the last nigth till the big kids got home we totally said screw it all and had…. Take out!!! Haha

This then leads to Thursday as I had some pork tenderloins to cut up and prep for the freezer from our local case lot sale, I thought how perfect and pork chops it is. So yes we had a much better supper that night, as all my kids were home again, we had pork chops, fries, (baby had potatoes), and some beans from the garden.

Then the last day Friday! We were in the city back to school shopping, so with nothing planned… again, it worked out, as the husband took the older kid’s to the camper for the night I had the little ones. So I made….. macaroni for the toddler. As he is soooooo emotionally tired these days I called it as a win. The baby had yummy left overs of his pork, and potatoes with beans, it was food enough for me. Haha.

It was a crazy week, that I’m still blurry of, and as you can tell forgetful as I don’t have much pictures of the meals.
However the week is over and I can say at least we ate haha.
It doesnt always matter if your meals are 100% perfect everyday.
Take the week and roll with it! Was it the best health week?
Haha absolutely not!
Did everyone have something to eat, and survived the week?

Why yes, yes we did. As I could of done better out of my hidden spots, life got crazy and I improvised!
Have you done this?
Do you get mom guilt from it?
I sure do sometimes but then I realize that it was only one week, and I can make it up next week.

It is all about balance some days, and making end meet, and knowing it’s ok, and it won’t be like that every week.
How did your week go?
Had awesome suppers, or pulled together to make it work?
Let me know either on here, or over on Facebook Classy Classic’s By Kandis. You can also see some adventures over on Instagram under Kandis Blask.

I am hoping life will start to slow down, a little as summer is winding down, our secret mission is coming to a completion, there will be more and more time and energy for this wonderful blog with you amazing mamma!

Until next blog hope you have a great week, as we count down the last of summer break.
This summer sure had a twist in it, but more on summer adventure another day.

Hello and good morning welcome to Its A Mom Life at classyclassicsbykandis.blogspot.com.
Today is Friday, and actually Friday! I would like to first apologize for my flakiness this week! I had realized I was a little distracted when I posted Thursday’s blog on Wednesday.
I thought it was Thursday for some reason, even tho I knew it wasn’t as the kids have activities on Wednesdays. So for this blog it will be a longer read as I need to explain and talk about some issues that has occurred in the last week. I will also point out I am starting to write this blog Wednesday, and it is posted Friday. I thought I should take a couple days to focus on this blog and explain some situations.
So where to start, I think we shall start with ummm how about where is my brain these days. We all get distracted from time to time, as our days change and our season turn. How ever my week has been hit harder then normal.
I am wrapping my brain power in the family right now. Yes, this is something that is always on the mind however, last week it went up to full overload.
Last week was a turning point on many levels, as my husband, and my self went to the city for a grocery run with the two little ones, as we do every month, we were faced with a different outcome.
My husband was involved in a accident that has now left him unable to work or help with the children. As he will be in a tough place for many months, I am working with companies, running the house, managing the kids, and trying to make him as comfortable as I can.
I am going to put my full force into this as I am so blessed to be able to wake up and have him here. It is a change with him here and not being able to help, and with him here and seeing what all goes on in a 24 hour period, as I am usually awake for 18 of those hours lol.
So my days have blurred never the less these last couple days. This was a week ago, so its just getting used the to routines and adjusting to that little extra ump that is required.
So why the off blogs?
So another thing I wanted to touch on was, as my brian is working hard to filter through all the categories that I have put in to it, I also just kept on going with everything thinking I could just squeeze more in with out dropping a ball that was already in play.
As I kept going with the blog, thinking of just getting them out as I am still very excited about this new journey things started to slip. The blogs were not as great I lost any pictures that I had ready for them, and I was just squeezing what time I had in the mornings to get them out. I will take this time to point out that my house starts moving at 7 am on a good day, and I am getting 2 out of 4 kids out the door for school. Needless to say mammas brian was slipping. 
As I am trying to figure out how I want  my blog to work and what aspects I would like to bring to the page, I thought this would be a good time to slow it down.
With a  blank folder now 😭 I will use the silver lining to get through.
So I am without a doubt going to keep on trucking with my blog life, as this is something I have debated about for years and finally got the courage to do.
With this all said I will be posting still many times a week just maybe not 6 time, I will still be doing diy’s and meals, prep and money saving ideas especially since money will be tight, with the main worker out.
However I would like to change it up and see how it goes. I would like to try more of a in the life of type of blogs.
Instead of having days set of for specific topics it might be all in one or just one topic in one. I am aiming for a couple blogs a week still.
However I need to remember to take a step back and take care of my group and keep on swinging as life throws those balls my way.
Let me know in the comments down below if you have had a time where everything fell really fast?
Are you interested in the blog changes? I am excited to do these types of blogs, especially with summer coming!
I hope you will enjoy the new blog posts, and will continue this journey with me.
As a mother and a wife I can do it all, but like all it gets draining.
So let’s stick it out and stick together and have a awesome run with the new changes for IT’S A Mom Life.
Till next blog have a great day, and just keep moving. Remember March is almost done!
Have a great one from classyclassicsbykandis 😁❤🍵
