It has been a while, yet again, but things are going well. I'm growing rapidly (so it feels like) and we get to find out the sex of the baby this week (the 25th!!!). The whole family is going, I'm sure Danielle is bummed she is going to miss her p.e. class, so that should be a good adventure. I'm at 20 weeks now, half way done with the entire process, that is so hard to believe! Right now the baby is between 5 2/3 to 6 1/2 inches long and about 9 or 10 ounces. The average length of a cantaloup, how weird.
We had a fun weekend over visiting my mom and seeing my brother for a few minutes here and there. The kids got to see a fun movie called Planet 51 about an astronaut being the alien on an alien planet and we also had lunch at the park, played some card games and got to visit a bunch.
We are spending this week picking up preregistration paper work for Dylan starting
kindergarten next year and getting back into the swing of preschool. I've really dropped the ball on that since the beginning of the year but I think I needed that rest to recover from the holidays and the get my energy back from the second trimester. I'm feeling better now and haven't felt much morning sickness in a week or two so I'm thinking that is about over with, hooray!
Since we've been having such wonderful weather (about 60 degrees and sunshine!) I guess it's time we get back out there and get used to walking again, but exercise sounds so unappealing. Anyway that's what's going on in a nut shell, more to come soon and then onto the great name debate!

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...

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...

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?
