Oh The Chukester Bear! We haven't really updated how Chuki has been adjusting to life in Illinois. I don't know what other way to describe it besides HE LOVES IT! Chuki is in heaven here. First of all, we have a yard which is AMAZING for both us and him. Second of all, everything is new for him. New smells, new sounds, new people, new food. EVERYTHING IS NEW! Plus, it's HOT here and HUMID here and that tires him out so quickly. And lastly, he's spoiled rotten and loves having all of the attention. You thought we spoiled him, you should see my Dad! (I know you're reading this Dad =) One pathetic look from Chuki and their in the gym or outside or playing rope in the kitchen! Chuki's already had a couple of ham bones, a pigs ear and gobs of cheese!
In short, Chuki loves life in Illinois. We love having a yard where he can run around. Plus all of the new people he meets everyday really helps him learn how to greet people. Long gone are the days of jumping on everyone!
I'll have to post some photos soon, but for now, just take my word... He's in heaven!

The Food Journal Returns -
Yesterday we both worked for a couple of hours midday but before we left we made time for breakfast. Stonyfield Organic French Vanilla Yogurt and homemade Granola. Mine had a banana in it too.
I ate shortly after at work. They had leftovers from their Memorial BBQ. I had a chicken strip (maybe it was a breast cut in half?) and a little bit of pasta salad.
We stopped at the Matson's and we're gifted about 5 pieces of candy, which we both ate up immediately!
When we got home we did a lot of yard work and at about 6:30 hunger hit me. I had a small piece of pizza while I was making dinner. We ended up eating leftovers but they were fabulously repurposed: jasmine rice, cauliflower and green beans, and a hamburger crumbled up. It actually was pretty good.
For dessert we had Culvers custard with a pint of strawberries. Sinfully delicious.
And then we were hungry again around 9 and so we each had a piece of pizza.
As you can see our eating habits have changed drastically. We're working on curtailing them but it's hard. We're certainly learning self control!
