Doctor's visit

Aug 03, 2010 10:53

Lance slept for 10 hours last night!! That means that I probably got around 7 hours of sleep…I don’t think I have gotten that much sleep since before he was born. Then, when he woke up at 6am, he ate and then went back to sleep around 7 for maybe 30-5 minutes…and then Joel, who has most of the day off today, took him for another hour…so I got a ( Read more... )

Awww look at bitty baby William!!!! :)

Does it make me a bad mom that I am so entertained by my sons pouts and screaming fits? ;) he certainly has my flair for the dramatic. :) wait till you see him stick out his lip when he pouts!!!!

I have always done your moms stew from memory...but here is what I usually do:

Brown the stew meat in a pan. Add to crock pot
Peel and slice potatoes into chunks
Pour in a bag of baby carrots
Peel and slice an onion into chunks
Add 1 pack onion soup mix and about 1 1/2 to 2 cups of water, or water and red wine
Put crock pot on low and cook for 6-8 hours, adding in sliced mushrooms (I use baby portobellos) about 60-90 minutes before serving
Serve over rice

I have also started using sweet potatoes instead of baking potatoes and adding peas as well. :)
I'm sure i don't do it like your mom does either but that's what seems to work for me. :)

Starbucks has a kind of rewards program--when you obtain and register one of their reloadable gift cards you start earning stars for each visit. When you get 30 stars you achieve gold level and they send you a personalized gold card. you get all kinds of cool stuff in the program including free drinks, free wifi, and discounts on merchandise. Plus it's just cool. And I am addicted to Starbucks and there is no extra fee, so why not. :) Joel got me the card for my birthday when he turned in 200 worth of change and one of the redemption options was to get it on a Starbucks card, and he reloads it with his extra change for now. :) I just went gold a few weeks ago and my card arrived yesterday. Yay!! (and yes I know I'm a dork. :) )
