Breakfast for Dinner

By -
I love breakfast foods. BUT, I hate getting up to make breakfast in the morning. So, I enjoy making breakfast for dinner. Bry sometimes disagrees, but I like it. It's usually easy & yummy.

I like to have French Toast, but it seems like everyone else would rather have pancakes or waffles instead. When I do make French Toast, I usually make too much (expecting them to eat more I guess). This time, I think I used 20 slices of bread (this is a lot considering I have 2 adults & 4 picky kids). I made them super-cute though. I cut them into heart-shapes with a sandwich cutter I have (that cost me all of 25 cents at a garage sale). They were SO yummy. I mixed brown sugar (I ran out of white) & vanilla in with the egg & milk. They were delicious with just a little butter on them. Mmmm....Wow, how blog-happy am I? I know I'm crazy. I was making these Saturday & HAD to take pics for the blog. I think I can admit that is an obsession.

BTW - The kids ate them ALL! Every single little heart. Even Adam, who asked if he "had" to have hearts...couldn't he have a square French Toast. They ate 'em up. Mia even asked this morning if she could have French Toast for breakfast. Maybe another day...

I got a cutter like that with dinosaurs, I'll have to try that, but not in the morning either, that's just never gonna happen in our house...unless Reed does it. We have breakfast-dinner on Sundays.

Chuck E. Cheese...Yay!??!

I decided to suck-it-up and take the family to Chuck E. Cheese for Allison's birthday. In AZ, the kids really liked going to Peter Piper Pizza for pizza & games. We've been here 2 years, and I've managed NOT to make it into Chuck E. Cheese. The kids have asked many times, but it just hasn't happened. So, I thought it would be a treat for them. A friend of mine gave me some coupons & I printed some off the Internet too. We got tons of tokens, pizza & soda for everyone. We had a pretty good time, except for 3 emotional meltdowns - ALL thanks to Mia. One meltdown because she wanted to play a specific game, another when we were down to our last 2 tokens (one for Adelaide & one for Mia). Her final tantrum was on the way out when she changed her mind at the last minute about which prize she wanted (after our turn was over). We'll have to think seriously about another birthday @ Chuck E. Cheese. - Mia says she wants to have her birthday there next month. W...

SEW Happy...Some of My "Projects"

It's October, and I DO like Halloween. I think it's fun to dress up & pretend. Sometimes it's a little grotesque & scary or pretty or even silly. This year, I felt like I should embrace my "roundness". I kept thinking of ways I could emphasize my prego belly, and this is what I came up with (for about$7 too). I bought a black T-shirt (used a coupon) at Michaels. I got 1/2 yd of orange fabric for my pumpkin (which could have made 2), then 1/4yd of black, green & orange w/ polka-dots. I knew I already had some Under Wonder (Heat & Bond) stuff at home that I could use. I had an idea of how I wanted it to look, so I actually put the T-shirt on wrong-side-out & marked where I wanted the pumpkin, so I could decide how big to make it. I sewed with black thread to make lines on the pumpkin, just to embellish it a little more. I cut eyes, nose & mouth out of black & ironed it on with under wonder. Then, sewed around the outside edges. I attache...

I Should Play the Lotto

By -
After a tubal ligation 3 years ago when Allison was born, we just found out on Tuesday that we are expecting baby #5! I can't really explain why I even thought to buy a pregnancy test. I mean, I spent at least ten minutes in Walgreens trying to decide if I needed to spend $10 when I KNEW it would be negative (because it had to be, right?). Let me back up...I have had some medical issues in the last few years that make my cycles irregular. So, YES...I did miss my period, but this was not the first time. I have had some nausea in the morning, but when I take my meds on an empty stomach (which I do pretty frequently) I sometimes feel a little sick. So I really didn't think much of that. Really, I have just had A LOT of fatigue. I mean I am WIPED OUT by about 1pm. At first, I thought it was just that I wasn't sleeping well. Or, it could've been me falling off the Gym Wagon. I started potty training Allison in March (we won't talk about that), and taking her to spee...
