I don't have a picture for you but I'll update this post with one next time I make them. Now for the yummy part, I've taken one of my mom's super yummy recipes for Stuffed Peppers and cut down the cook time for weekday evenings. What you'll need: 3 -4 yellow, red, or orange bell peppers (preferably with a flat bottom) 1 bag of Uncle Ben's boil in bag white rice 1lb Ground Round or Beef 2 - 8oz cans of … [Read more...]
Naming a child under most circumstances can be one of the most difficult choices you have to make during pregnancy. For us, it's always been pretty easy. We find out the gender, go through our short list of favorites and say...yep, that's the one. End of story. Well....not this time. Since this will be our surprise baby we are forced to pick two names, one for a girl, and one for a boy. While the suspense of it all … [Read more...]
I've been desperately awaiting the arrival of the fetal doppler I rented from BabyBeat.com and today....it finally arrived! I HIGHLY recommend this for any mom that gets nervous in the first trimester. Four weeks can be a long wait for the next OB appointment.I rented the same model, which is used in doctor's offices, that I did when I was pregnant with Kaydence. $50 is a small price to pay for the reassurance it … [Read more...]
We made our annual trip down the street to the sweet corn festival hosted in our little town just a few hours ago. While we tried not to let the overwhelming amount of Japanese beetles buzzing our heads and sweltering heat ruin our fun, we ended up cutting out pretty quickly. I'm really kicking myself for not bringing the camera out with us. As we sat down in the tent to gnaw on some sweet corn our little girl … [Read more...]
Please someone make it stop! I'm feeling so sick all day every day now and it stinks! In some absurd way I think my unborn child hates me. LOL I started out with a tad of nausea during week 6, it went away for week 7, and came back with a vengeance for week 9. I've been drinking lots of tea with fresh ginger root which helps in the mornings, unfortunately it's the afternoon and evenings that are killer. I don't … [Read more...]
Normally, I dread any doctor visit. I don't necessarily dislike doctors, I just hate the cold, impersonal feeling of being in an office, not to mention the crappy wait times. What other business can get away with making it's customers wait ridiculous minutes, sometimes up to an hour of a scheduled appointment and still get repeat customers? For instance, the service at the Saturn dealership is beyond awful, I've … [Read more...]
My big girl just had her one year check-up along with a few shots (poor baby). I actually really enjoy taking Kaydence to her pediatrician because she absolutely loves her doctor and nurses. They are always so cheerful and happy with her and us. After doing the initial measurements I was so surprised and delighted to hear that my baby jumped from the 5th percentile in height, weight, and head circumference to the … [Read more...]
It's been a hectic few days and I just now got a few moments to sort through my daughter's party pictures. Little miss Kaydence is now officially "not zero anymore", in my son's words. She celebrated her first birthday with friends and family on July 1st. It actually turned out to be a great day. In our family, get-together's are typically stress filled with people running all over the place making each other … [Read more...]
