We had a very calm and relaxing weekend. I did a few pinterest recipes that turned out fantastic!!! I have more recipes planned for the rest of the week. I hope they all turn out just as well.
Here is my blueberry breakfast crumble! Holy moly is this thing delicious! I used fresh blueberries and it is all homemade. I am pretty excited about making this some more. I also made crock pot salsa chicken (shredded) over brown rice. I did not take a picture of that because it looked like vomit. No seriously. Olivia (my good eater) walked up to her bowl and looked at it and said 'Eww....that's yuck!' Haha. I told her she just needed to try it and her AND Hayden ate their entire bowls. It was SO good!
Crock pot pizza!!! This was a huge hit and SO good as well. I like when I try new recipes and they turn out well. I have had some major epic fails with new recipes before. But I am on a roll right now. I also made Andrew breakfast egg muffins for him to take to work. They are easy and different and really easy for him to pop in microwave and head out the door with.
THIS is what we are doing today (Sunday)....a whole lot of Rhea Lana's listing. 150 items to be exact. Yippee! I was tempted to just skip this RL but Olivia is in a need for a fall/winter wardrobe. So, I sell their old stuff and buy her new stuff. This is the first time that I can remember that I don't HAVE to buy for both kids. I don't think I could fit another hanger in Hayden's closet. Ha! But luckily with RL I can (hopefully) break even or possibly come out ahead. Yay for consignments!
Kids love to wear their goggles in the bathtub. Olivia usually doesn't but decided to participate today. Hayden wears them everytime and is always going under water. He puts his toy shark in the tub and pretends to be a 'scuba diver caught off guard by a shark in the sea!'. Its quite funny to watch. He has such a great imagination.
While I was getting dinner ready...this is what the kids were doing. So nice. Olivia watching Care Bears and Hayden playing Curious George on the computer.
She said her baby needed a pillow and blanket just like her.
Hayden really picked up the computer quite quickly. He can find his own games and change from Curious George to Dinosaur Train or Martha Speaks. Its fun to watch him play and learn.
Hayden always takes my phone to take pictures. He especially loves to take pictures of his toys or Olivia. He is pretty good with the camera actually. :)
On Saturday night after Andrew got home from work we did popcorn and a movie. Since Hayden cleared his bowl of food he got to pick the movie this week. He picked Puss and Boots which he calls 'Cat Boots'. We thought we had some popcorn but I was mistaken. There was none. So, we found a kettle corn recipe online and made our own kettle corn. Here Olivia is watching the kernels explode! She thought it was funny.
**We burnt our first batch of kettle corn--OOPS--but our second batch turned out perfect and our house smelled of kettle corn.
That was our oh so fun weekend. It really was relaxing and I think its just what we needed. Now....I had best start on this huge pile of stuff for RL. :/
