28 weeks

Well Dylan is turning into quite the little photographer. He took this one of me yesterday at just under 28 weeks. I also found several more of the dog and the floor and his backpack from when I was taking a nap so maybe he needs some more practice :) Danielle had her first softball game yesterday (a double header, 2 away games) and she played well. She was out in Right field and was at bat once. Her first home game is next week so Dylan and I are so excited to see her play. She only has one day when her games are on the weekend so that is all that Shane will get to see her play so we are making sure that we are at the only other 2 home games on week days. BTW she is having a tournament on May 8th in Royal (where ever that is!) like a 3 game all day thing.
We are busy busy busy these weekends coming up. We don't have a single Saturday where something isn't planned, crazy! Some of these things are fun, like camping, baby showers and visiting our friends, but some may be a little less.
This Saturday is a MOPS conference at our location here in Ellensburg. We are hosting the event for all of our region which includes Wenatchee and Yakima and the cities in between. Should be pretty exciting to be a part of!

  1. I love this post. I was chuckling reading about Dylan taking those pics (reminds me of another certain young boy about 15 years ago). Cool to hear about Danielle. Let me know her schedule coming up. Maybe I can try to come to one of the day games if the weather over the pass is good.

Overnight Sourdough Cinnamon Rolls

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...

Belated Christmas Pics

Because I didn't download any pictures for a while, and then it was after Christmas and things got wild for a while I kind of skipped over the actual holiday so several weeks late, here is how we spent our Christmas. I didn't get any pictures when we were over at Shane's family's house but we spent lots of time over there too.  All four kids in one picture together! Warner kind of blends into the tree skirt but his little baldish head stands out. Luckily the matching pajamas I bought for the boys last year still fit too.  Head lamps for spying on Santa. Opening presents was a daunting task for Lincoln. I think this was when he realized asking only for a "princess and a peanut butter and jelly sandwich" wasn't the best of ideas. Don't worry he got plenty spoiled. The messy aftermath. Lincoln playing in his new tiny little kitchen. My brother and dad at our house. My mom and brother decorating a giant gingerbread...

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner

We love chicken in our house because it is yummy, very versatile and somewhat affordable. It is also Shane's meat of choice for his "tone and sculpt" plan. (ok so I just love how special he is and really I am not making fun of him)  I generally try to find boneless, skinless chicken for less than $2 a pound. These days it is getting increasingly difficult, even looking into Zycon or Costco so when I found some for $2.30/lb I got all the had... two packages. I frozen one because Shane will BBQ that for lunches on the weekend. With the other package, which I think was about 3.5 pounds or 5/6 breasts, I was able to look on the monthly menu plan and figure out what chicken type dinners I had coming up and chop from there. Since the breasts are usually very thick I slice them in half, like a top and bottom part. Then I either chopped up into bite sized pieces or froze whole. For less than $9 in chicken I made four meals that will serve at least two adults and two children. ...
