Lemon Glazed Raspberry Zucchini Bread

Well, my mom was in town for the week and we got to bake together, which was really fun and helpful, since I only have one hand to bake with now that I have a nursing newborn who loves to eat as much as his mommy does. 

This was by far the yummiest recipe we made while she was in town.  In fact we had to make it twice because the first one went so fast, I couldn't even get a photo of it.  It is super moist and perfect for the upcoming springtime :)  Hard to believe that it contains fruit, veggies and whole grains!

Lawson is doing great, eating a ton and growing even more.  He is very active, expressive and verbal, constantly kicking, making faces and all kinds of sounds.  Can't wait until those sounds become words someday.

I'm doing pretty good, still trying to adjust to my new life as mommy.  Hard to believe how fast your whole world can change once you have a baby.  I pretty much live in what I call my nursing chair.  I try to get Lawson out for a stroll every day but some days it just doesn't happen.  Everything right now totally revolves around him and his timeline which is really hard for someone like me who loves to plan and have things in control, but I'm getting used to it. 

I just have to say nursing is no joke and I commend any woman who does because it takes serious commitment.  That being said I love my little Lawson more than anything, but I am really looking forward to when he gets a little older and things get a little easier, hopefully :)
