Happy Mother's Day
One of my gifts for mother's day! Love it....
I do find it kinda humerous that I am everything except funny.... Also, I guess I play a lot of games. But at least I am good at it!

Easter....
Better late than never......
We had a great day. C and Bean had a great time painting eggs and were very excited that the Easter Bunny would hide them. C told me that the bunny would hide them inside the house - main floor and basement only - and outside. Directions taken.
For a change, this year I choose not to pack all the eggs with candy. I only bought 2 small bags of jelly beans and put a few in the eggs. I also put coins in a lot of the eggs, which the kids happily placed in their piggy banks


Baskets this year, also did not have any candy - a few toys and even toothbrushes!!!! They loved it - especially Baby Doll who brushed her teeth for about an hour that day.

C also had the chance to head to church with mama which he enjoyed thoroughly!


Happy Easter everyone!!!!!

I Rock....
These are the days we all hope for as a mom....
On Sunday, I made dinner (I know, surprising since Deric does all the cooking in our house. But he was out of town). I made grilled chicken breasts, brocolli and served it with orange slices. Nothing fancy and nothing the kids usually rock about but it was something that I wanted.
When I called the kids over to get there plates and head to the dinner table. Little C picks up his plate, looks at the food and says "Looks Yummy mommy. I love this"!!!! I rock at dinner....
I also have to point out, that typically he looks at the plate and says "this is not what I wanted" or "I don't like this". Not sure if the orange slices changed his opinion or not, but they might see the dinner plate more often!

My newest rave!!!!

When our house went mainly gluten free in October, I kept thinking that I would need to re-learn baking. I know how much experimentation goes into each recipe. The first attempt I made at pancakes was a DISASTER!!!! It was not pretty.... Lucky for me, I am also linked into Betty Crocker and found happiness in Gluten Free Bisquick Pancakes.
But what about my pleasure of baking. We love pumpkin bread in this house, I bake the kids cakes for their birthday, I make dessert when we have guests over....
I found this cookbook at the library and baked Pumpkin muffins yesterday. I was a little hesitant on being vegan (eggs add a known ingredient in baking...), but these turned out FABULOUS!!!!
I will definitly be baking more from this book. Thank you!
