Boy's day

By
Well the boys are off doing things with Shane's new jeep and hanging out with Grandpa Larry before Shane starts work later today. Dylan asked me today "How old is Daddy." I replied 37 and then he asked "But when is he going to be 20?" haha I'm not sure what he was curious about but I thought it was funny. Now I'm just home paying some bills (two credit cards paid off this week, whoohoo!!!) and watching Bringing Home Baby and a Baby Story on TLC. This baby is 21 weeks along today, the length of a banana (7.25 inches) and about 10.5 ounces. If this is accurate for mine, the baby has gained an ounce and a half in one week! Everything about this baby growing amazes me. The Dugger family (who also has a show on TLC) had their 19th baby at 24 weeks. She survived but has been in the NICU since December so it is somewhat reassuring that if something were to happen and this baby came in 4 weeks that it would still survive. But baby please give me another 12 weeks at least. I'm ready to have the baby around now but we are definitely not ready or set up or anything like that. With Dylan I was so apprehensive about everything that had to do with me being in charge of this tiny baby and while I know it is going to be a huge undertaking with a newborn in the house, I just know it will all be fine.

Overnight Sourdough Cinnamon Rolls

By
I've been tweaking this overnight sourdough cinnamon roll recipe over the last few months and I think it's finally, exactly, the way I like it. We love this for slow weekend mornings, to take to family and friends, or for special holiday get togethers. It's also the same recipe I use when making them to sell locally. I've been keeping it under wraps for no reason in particular but it's just too good not to share.  I don't have a reliable kitchen scale so this recipe uses good old fashion cups and goes a lot by the feeling of the dough. It will get messy but don't be discouraged if it doesn't turn out just right the first time. No matter the flop, these cinnamon rolls will never disappoint taste wise.  The PDF printable can be found here or you can keep reading.  Overnight Sourdough Cinnamon Rolls  The night before you want to make rolls: 8 Tablespoons cold butter, shredded (a whole stick) 2 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose or bread flour  1/2 cup sourdou...

Keeping up with the Sadlers

By
Lincoln favorite new past time, listen closely for "Dada"  Dylan had cowboy day at school and could dress up and meet "real cowboys". We live in a hick town and his school was having an assembly about the cowboy way , or having character. Yes, Lincoln's bib is purplish, but it says I Love my Sister so it's ok :)  Cute big boy outfit Auntie Jackie got Lincoln, while sticking out his tongue. I think it looks like a little pickle. Weird, another tongue shot, he does it a lot. While playing with a plush orange (like the fruit) it sort of landed like this and I thought it looked a little like a bikini top and snapped a pic. Hey you have to have fun with life right?

Oh Lovely Chicken Divan

By
Today marks my last official planned freezer cooking day for now in preparation for the new baby. I might end up making something next month, but really the freezers are getting quite full and until we eat down some things, it's quite a tight squeeze at the moment. Chicken divan, if you've never had it, oh you are missing out! This was probably the most requested birthday dinner in our house growing up and it is one of my ultimate comfort foods. It has vegetables, kids like it, and it really isn't that expensive to make either. It takes a little time because of the different layers so doubling it is a great time saver anyway (or if you have a smallish family just put half in one pan and half in a different pan for another meal. And finally the long awaited: Chicken Divan 2 packages/heads broccoli frozen or fresh (I like to use the florets when I can find them) 2 cups sliced/shredded/chopped cooked chicken (cook any way you like, baked is probably juiciest) 2 cups conde...
