Uh Oh it's 2015!

By
So according to my dad, I haven't blogged since April. April, as in nine months ago. We've been busy. 
Not super awesome, over the top crazy busy. Just the day to day busy with three active boys.
We got through peak at UPS during the Christmas season when Shane was leaving the house at 6am and getting home after 7pm. We made it through a pee-wee football season. We made it through officially starting homeschooling preschool with Lincoln. We made it through a traumatic injury when Lincoln's tooth went through his lip but all is well. We made it through babyhood with Warner and we are onto his troublesome era. You see that first picture below? Gold Sharpie all over his forehead and the palms of his hands (also on my new vest, but that's another story). Rubbing Alcohol on a cotton ball really does work great! Be careful by the eyes though ;)


I also had a few days where my mom too the two older boys to her house so it was just me and Warner and we had a ton of fun just hanging out and being goofy. We also got all of the Christmas decorations down and I finally figured out a way to keep him still. 


So yes we are crazy. Our ordinary, chaotic, beautifully simple life.

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?

Best Friends by Force

By
We weren't necessarily planning on having two under two initially but now that we are almost two year into it and survived the newborn stage, I can say with confidence that it is possible and we are starting to see some benefits.  Lincoln, the two year old and my middle boy, wanted nothing to do with his baby brother Warner. He knew a baby was taking everyone's attention, including his beloved oldest brother. He admires and tries to be exactly like his older brother most of the time. Until recently the two youngest wouldn't even play together. Warner was too young to understand play. Lincoln was too busy to be bothered by a baby. When school started I was home alone with the two little boys for hours on end and they were forced to spend time digging in the sand box together, destroying each other's block fortresses, trading colds and playing tiger tag. Lincoln has been doing much more preschool with me and we always make sure to include Warner if he isn't napping...
