Blueberries is like...

CANDY!

In LOVE!
Enjoying blueberries

I purchase most of my produce at a local market that has pretty good prices! I usually only buy whats on sale. This past week blueberries have been on sale, and Jonathan and Sarah tried a few and they were in LOVE with them! Sarah act like it is candy and she almost eat a half of pint all by herself one afternoon! This morning I was putting the blueberries into my yogurt and the kids of course wanted some!

The happenings in our life

Dave has been really busy with school this semester; he is taking 17 credits and there is a lot of busy work. But the end is in site and I am counting down the months! But I always love Wednesdays cause he comes home from school at 5 pm and doesn't work. So we get to eat dinner as a family and he helps me with putting the kids down. It is wonderful. I love you sweety! I of course think that this is an adorable picture!

Loretta made this and then put it as her picture on facebook; and I have been craving it ever since. So I made the different piece and Dave assembled it for dinner at my parents on Sunday since I had to work. It was great (I don't think that is looks as good as Loretta's but it still was good!)

I was trying to take a picture of all three of us, this was the best one. Which isn't that great but that is okay!Sarah is in the background hiding.

I haven't blogged in awhile and I feel so far behind. I don't know what I have been really up to. Just seems like I am trying to always get caught up on spring cleaning and organizing plus the normal cleaning; and the everyday things such as working, being a mother, practicing the piano and whatever seems to come my way.

I am getting really close to finishing a birthday banner that I am making for birthdays. They can be purchased upwards to 40 dollars on etsy. I figure I can perfect them for a lot cheaper. I will post it when I 'm done!

Kristi's birthday was this last week and we enjoyed lunch at a Chinese place, it was really fun to caught up with my sisters and Mom. We were the only ones in the restaurant; which made it even nicer.

Cafe Rio

First off there are a lot of post to come! We don't seem to go out that often. But, one of Dave's favorite foods is Taco Salad. Especially when I make it like the real Cafe Rio! I make the pork, rice and the dressing all like Cafe Rio. The only thing that is missing is the tortillas that are fresh, which I think that I am going to buy them next month from Costco! Anyway, Dave things this is the best meal, if you can't tell from his face!

Getting it!

We are finally getting somewhere, with Sarah that is! Around 7 months or so, Sarah decided that she didn't want a bottle she only wanted me. So that meant on days that I worked she only would get feed three times and she was fine with that (yes by the time I get home from work she is sooo ready to see me). So we started trying to get her to drink from sippy no success then to a cup same result, then back to a sippy and now back to a cup! This week she is finally getting it. She has been drinking from the cup when she wants a few little drinks after eating table food! It is great cause I could tell that she was getting a little dehydrated on the days that I was at work. So I wanted to share our little triumph! Oh and by the way Sarah is almost caught her brother on weight she is 19.2 and Jonathan is 20 lbs! Keep working Sarah your almost there!

Our little Alien!

Our Jonathan is such character! He makes me laugh! We were at Grammy's and Jonathan wanted to put these on! He was so cute that I took a few pictures! Jonathan got this rash all over his body, but now it is gone! Which I am thankful for! We continue to try to figure out how to get Jonathan to eat! The PEEP lady came that specializes in eating some to try to help with Jonathan. I have been to trying to do what she says and the tips that she gives us. But to no avail- Jonathan just doesn't eat like you would think a growing little boy should! I am getting very frustrated not knowing what to do!!!! But, I have been praying and hoping that something will come to me. She has sent us to to see the food and nutrition clinic at primaries- which I hope they can shed some light on the situation. But in the mean time we, we are trying some other things to try and stretch his tummy!! Wish me luck or best yet keep me in your prayers to be patient!

Sarah's first feeding

So Sarah was such about the rice cereal! She is very eager to grab the bowl, but not so sure about it in her mouth! But I am sure she will do better next time!

Soup

So I like soup and Dave doesn't. I like to make it cause it usually is easy to make, cheap and good. Well, Dave doesn't feel that it fills him up. But, tonight I made vegetable soup from "Dinners on Me"( http://dinnersonme.blogspot.com/) - and Dave liked it!! He said that I could make it again! So we finally have success! (She cooked some bacon with it so I could sprinkle it on top. HOW could I not like it? It has bacon with it.)
