Little Man, I'm Ready

Ok little man, I'm ready now. 
I got my pedicure yesterday (at a beauty school in town for half the price as any where else and the same quality as I've received in three other pedicures in my lifetime). 
I've gotten all my pressing MOPS business done. Our team is almost completely together and getting ready to gear up for some fun training over the summer.
 I put the car seat in the van yesterday. Shane gets frustrated trying to put it in and I didn't want to have to climb on top of it after having a baby so it just needed to happen. I forget how honkin' big those baby seats are! I also put the baby hospital bag in the van too, one less thing to have to remember.
I feel like I've done about 75 loads of laundry this week. I don't want it all piling up if I do spontaneously go into labor so I'm trying to stay on top of it all. It also seems like blankets, towels, couch covers... everything has somehow gotten spilled on, pooped on or spit up on and needed to be taken care of as well. Ahh the life of a mom. 
My ever growing to do list is actually getting done and I'm finding I have less and less to add to it. 
I even ordered Warner's charm for my most favorite piece of jewelry. I got my original necklace through the Vintage Pearl and was able to just order his a la carte and have it within about a week. I love it! Now he just has to get here so I can put it on. 


We can't wait to have you here mister so please at your convenience make your appearance.

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...

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...

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. ...
