My Menu

Well, here is a week to me cooking all the meals....sure do miss my parents, not only for them cooking but just for them being around. Since it is going to be another hot week, most of these meals will be cooked on the BBQ.

Sunday: Beer Can Chicken, Corn on the cob, and salad

Monday: Rigatoni w/ spaghetti sauce, garlic bread and leftover salad

Tuesday: Kielbasa, noodles and green beans

Wednesday: Pork Chops, rice and mixed veggies

Thursday: W.T. Baked potato's, chili and mac n cheese. I am going out to dinner with my friend Heather, so this is an easy one for Tyson to make.

Friday: BBQ Beef in the crock pot (didn't do this last week), and twice baked potatoes

Saturday: Chicken Wings (again didn't do this last week) and whatever other appetizer stuff I can make.

Have a great week!!

Flashback Friday

Oh my, they were so tiny that they fit in one bouncy seat together!
Cameryn on the left and Jaidyn on the right
Even Morgan has changed so much, she has lost of ton of the baby fat that I see on her cheeks in this picture.

1 Year Old

Oh my, time has sure flown by in this house. Cameryn and Jaidyn turned ONE on July 20Th! It is crazy to think where we were last year at this time, tired, tired, tired. We are still tired but in a different way. At least the girls are sleeping thru the night and that helps! I can't even believe they are one already.We had a small birthday party for them on their actual birthday since my sister in law Jamie was in town from Washington. We made some cupcakes for them, but for some reason they really didn't want to eat them! Then they got to open a TON of presents that she had bought them. It was a really nice day for them.

We also had a big birthday party on the 23rd, we had a BBQ with Hamburgers, hot dogs, salads, chips, etc. They also got a TON of presents from family and friends. Of course they weren't really sure how to open them, but big sister Morgan had no problem showing them. I haven't had their 1 year checkup yet as their doctor was really booked out, we have that scheduled for August 1st, so I will have their stats then.

Cameryn: Still happy, happy, happy, unless if she is hungry or tired. She loves to mimic you, when you ask her to say "mama" she says "nanananananana" over and over again. She is walking along furniture, and will walk with a walking toy. She loves to eat and will eat anything that you put in front of her. She loves to "chase" Jaidyn around the house and they giggle the whole time! She is wearing 18 month size clothes (she is still a chunk) and she knows how to take her diaper off.

Jaidyn: She is our little clown. Loves to do silly things to make you laugh. She can say "mama" and loves to "talk" to you, constantly, and she is LOUD at it. She just started to try to stand up on her own, without furniture around. Pretty soon she will be walking! She is a very "polite" eater as I put it. She will eat all her food, but it takes her forever and she rarely makes a mess. She also tries to steal her sisters food off of her tray. She wears between 6-12 months for clothes, she is still just a tiny little thing! Her newest thing is if she gets upset that she will put her forehead on the ground, cry and crawl at the same time. She did it so much she gave herself a rug burn on her forehead!

I am looking forward to the next year and what it will bring. It will be interesting when they both start walking, that will definitely bring more challenges to me, but it will be fun for Morgan as she will be able to interact with them more!
