Enjoying every minute!

Well all is back to normal. (or at least what normal will be) Luke is a very good baby he eats about every 4hrs and sleeps, can't ask for much better at this stage. He had his check up yesterday and weighed 8 lb. 9 oz. and was 21 inches long so he is growing well. The girls love him so much! They had a adjustment period but are doing a lot better now. They are such good helpers. I think they are ready for him to be bigger so they can really play with him, I'm just enjoying my snuggle time with him.

    Glad you guys are settling in well!

    The bruschetta is EASY. Dice 1/2 pound of tomatoes (it was about 7 small Romas for me, so 4-5 larger ones), 1/4 onion chopped, 1 garlic clove chopped, dried basil (probably 1 tsp), 1 Tb olive oil. Mix all that together and let it stand for 1/2 hour or so. Slice your french bread and broil it for a minute or so. Top with the tomato mixture and some grated mozzerella. Broil another minute or so. It is soo good!

    Yes! The recipe as written makes 2 loaves - I've made it once into two loaves, and another time into 6 sandwich hoagie type rolls. This last time, I cut the recipe in half and just make one loaf and it worked well like that! Here's the link - http://thepioneerwoman.com/tasty-kitchen/recipes/breads/amazing-french-bread/

One Week left!!

at 05/14/10 7:32AM
Today is my last appt. and I am very thankful for that. It will be one week and we will see Luke unless the Dr. changes her mind. I have been having some signs of early labor so I am hoping she will go ahead and do it today or tomorrow. I will try and keep everyone updated. Please keep Luke and me in your prayers that all may go well, thanks.
