Seahawks victory and smashed peas

 Dylan running the obstacle course while we were waiting for the Seahawks game to start. Dad gave Shane and I the tickets but through some unfortunate events (for him) Shane wasn't able to go and I got to take my favorite 5 1/2 year old. We don't get to do to much with just us anymore so this was extra special.
 "Whew Mom, I was running all over, I'm tired now." I guess I need to set one of these up in my yard when he starts getting hyper...
 Dylan hanging out. It got down to about 35 degrees that night in Seattle, but the Seahawks managed to win against the Rams and are now in the playoffs. It was pretty awesome to be there for it.
 Lincoln has started having baby cereal and some light colored fruits and squash, but this was his first experience with peas. Monday was his half birthday, he's already lived 6 months of his life, so hard to believe!
 He's probably thinking "Do you have to have that camera in my face all the time?"
Lincoln is very independent, or just wants everything in his mouth at all times :) Well it looks like his eyes are going to stay blue (secret yay on my end!)

    I'm glad you guys got to go and have a good game to watch. That obstacle course would be great for him! Get him ready for Pop Warner or Peewee football early on!

    Linc is growing so quickly. I wish I could see him more... :^(

Belated Christmas Pics

By
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...

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...

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner

By
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. ...
