Lasagna

February 7, 2011Food(0)
Chuck’s mom makes the most wonderful lasagna ever! I have started to use her recipe as my own. And I make it for all sorts of events. I am planning to make some soon to freeze and keep for meals. One of the little things that will come in handy with a baby around. But...

Meltdown

February 6, 2011Maddie(0)
A few weeks back, Chuck and I were packing up our stuff for the hospital. Always good to have it ready to go. Well, I had a meltdown that night. I was in an utter panic. Here are some of the things that I either said or thought: “Oh my heavenswe’re actually going to have...

Wall Photos

February 5, 2011Maddie(0)
My brother recently brought me the pictures he took. I posted them HERE.  I had one wall in the baby’s room that I knew I wanted to add something to. These pictures were the perfect addition. I had a bunch of silver frames around the house, so I put in some of the pictures Adam...

I decided to call in from work on Friday. I was really tired and just not up for making the trip in to work. I was really glad that I decided to go in yesterday to finish up some things. Now let’s hope this baby girl makes her arrival this weekend!

Cheesy Chipotle Chicken Enchiladas

February 4, 2011Food(0)
I know I have been posting a lot of food posts lately, but I have a lot of them stored up! So you’re going to be getting food posts a lot. At least until I catch up or something more exciting than food happens for me to write about! This is obviously another Let’s Dish...

I wasn’t feeling great today and Chuck thought I should stay home from work and rest. Instead, I decided to go into work because I knew I might not be in next week. I wanted to see my coworker who is in only Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. I knew it would be the last day...

Peppermint Bark

Since I recently posted my recipe for S’mores Bark, I thought I would post my peppermint bark recipe, too. You start out the same as the other bark. What you’ll need: Bag of milk chocolate chips Bag of white chocolate chips Candy canes Tin foil Baking pan Rolling pin, meat mallet, hammer or something else...

Today I had my doctor’s appointment. It’s actually the last appointment I will have before my due date. The doc last week said this week, she would try anything she could to help speed along the labor process. So she scraped my membranes for me. I had heard mixed things from people about how much...

Crazy Belly

February 2, 2011Maddie(0)
I know I just posted some belly pictures in the maternity pictures I just posted, but I took this picture recently (after my friend Trisha posted one like it) and wanted to share! I think when I have my next baby, I am going to take more pictures like this. I think it’s fun and...

Well, I’m a week until my due date. I was hoping Thumper wanted to be a January baby. But apparently she wanted to be a February baby. Last night we were laying in bed and Chuck had his hand on my stomach. She was moving around in there like crazy. I can’t believe she still...

Citrus Grilled Tilapia With Rice

February 1, 2011Food(0)
This was a Let’s Dish meal that I was a little skeptical about. I would not consider myself even remotely to be a fish person. I like catching them, but I have never really liked the taste. Unless it doesn’t taste like fish. And I can eat every fish bite with a starch. This meal...

Maternity Pictures

January 31, 2011Maddie(3)
My wonderful brother, Adam, who does some photography in his spare time (check out his website) came over a couple weeks ago to take some maternity pictures for us. I was a little hesitant to have them done, but I am SO glad that he insisted and came over and did them. They didn’t take...

S’mores Bark

January 31, 2011Food(1)
Right after Christmas, my friend at work picked up some S’mores Bark at Target.  We talked about making some and I knew I had to give it a try. So, I made it my mission to make some. I was too tired after work, so I woke up early one morning and made it before...

Today I have been having some more contractions. They are definitely more noticeable today. We’re hoping that’s a good sign. I keep hoping I’ll wake up in the middle of the night with labor pains, but I just sleep peacefully through the night. Thumper really doesn’t like contractions. She doesn’t like it when her world...

Tonight we went to Game Night at the Schindler’s house. I was so tired and didn’t really feel like making the trek out to Minnetonka, but I am glad we did. This was probably the last social event we’ll have until the baby is here. It was also so nice to have our friends so...

I had another doctor’s appointment today. She was able to touch the baby’s head this time. And things weren’t as painful as last week. I was thankful for that, but a little bummed that I wasn’t more dilated this week. I was just over 1 cm or so. I am 38 weeks along now and...

My brother's girl friend let me borrow this book. She read it and said it was good. She was right. It was a fast read and a nice book for me to read on the bus. It was enotional, funny and well written. I definitely want to see if there are other books by this...

Chuck picked me up from work today and we went to Family Night at the Microsoft store. There wasn’t a whole lot going on, but there were some snacks and drinks. I took advantage of this! We also did more walking around the mall….come on baby….your mom and dad are very antsy to meet you!...

I had some more contractions in the morning, then went to Charlie’s basketball game and Chuck’s broomball game with him…..actually, that was after I spent the morning doing laundry, cleaning a little and putting away things in the baby’s room. I did more cleaning and sorting after we got home and before dinner with some...

My hubby and I watched this show (Silo). I didnโ€™ My hubby and I watched this show (Silo). I didnโ€™t know until it was over that it was a bookโ€ฆand a trilogy at that. I will say, I think I liked the show better. I know, I know, thatโ€™s the opposite of what an avid reader usually says, but I just couldnโ€™t get into the book. Maybe because I knew what was going to happen, but the events werenโ€™t nearly as compelling or dramatic as they seemed in the show. It was good, but just not as exciting as I was hoping. Iโ€™ll sure Iโ€™ll read the other books at some point, but Iโ€™m not in a huge hurry.

I squeezed myself into my wetsuit and helped chuck I squeezed myself into my wetsuit and helped chuck move our big lift out deeper. The water is so low and in the hopes of not getting the boat stuck on the lift and maybe getting a couple more rides, we managed to get it out a little farther. Thankfully we had a dock section we could move so we could make the lift deeper and still get into the boat.
