2 Months Old!!


Yes, that's right...my little baby girl is already 2 months old!! She is just too cute and so much fun with all the smiles she is showing off now!!:) She is still pretty fussy at times, but she has slept through the night 2 nights in a row...YAHOO!!! Let's hope she keeps this up!!:)

French Stew

I haven't really been cooking many new recipes lately so I haven't made another food post from my first one, but I am going to right now! I made a great dinner tonight and my husband loved it too so I thought I would share with my readers:)

French Stew
2 Tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 pound pork tenderloin, cut into 1 1/2 inch cubes
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cans (15 ounces each) cannellini beans, rinsed and drained
4 medium carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
1 can (14 ounces) chicken broth
1 teaspoon rosemary, crushed
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
4 slices crusty french bread, torn

Heat oven to 375 degrees. In a 4 quart dutch oven, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Add pork, onion, and garlic. Cook and stir until pork is browned, apx 4 minutes. Stir in beans, carrots, broth, rosemary, and pepper. Bring to a boil. Cover and bake 25 minutes. Meanwhile, chop bread in food processor to form about 1 1/2 cups of coarse crumbs. Toss crumbs with remaining oil; sprinkle over meat mixture. Bake, uncovered, 20 more minutes or until pork is cooked and carrots are tender. Serve in shallow bowls with french bread slices, if desired.
ENJOY!!

Not Me! Monday

I definitely have to participate in Not Me! Monday today:) I most definitely DID NOT eat a small bag of chips in the middle of the night when I was awake to nurse my daughter. I also DID NOT eat a frozen yogurt ice cream cone for the past 5 days in a row. I DID NOT leak all over my shirt when my baby started crying the other day. These things REALLY DID NOT happen to me!!!:)

Sadie's First Week!

So a little over a week has passed and Sadie is doing great! She took to nursing right away which was really nice (even though it takes her a long time to get started most nursing sessions, at least she latches on!) She is a champ of a sleeper, that's for sure! I don't know about anyone else who has or has had a newborn, but we only wake up once a night right now (around 2:30 am) for a feeding, and that is because we wake her up! I don't know how long she would sleep if we didn't wake her up:) Big brother Jonah is doing really well so far and I hope he keeps this up! Here are a few pictures in a slideshow that I thought you might enjoy. I love my little girl and I love taking her picture! We had newborn pictures done by a professional yesterday and when I get those back I will be sure to post some on here:)
