Trip to the UP

Monday the new Saturday

I am so tired from the weekend that I have declared that Monday will be my do nothing day. I just want to spend the whole day in my jammies. Isn’t that what you are supposed to do on Saturdays? Well, to a certain point in the day and then you have to get ready. Maybe in time for dinner and Family Home Evening…

Mikey'sTwo Months!!!

Michael is eating well and getting big. His doctor's appointment is next week. He is ticklish and loves to smile at mommy and daddy. He is starting to coo. It is so cute. He is also starting to make bubbles. He is a joy!!! His sister's love him.

Happy Halloween 2009

The kids had fun dressing up for Halloween. Ellie's costumes include a palm tree with a monkey on it, a fairy alligator, and a fairy. Mom just likes to dress her up, and Ellie seems to like it too. She's just so cute! Mikey just had a cool hat from Grandma Lolly and Lexi was a Disney princess. Mom and Dad were too tired to dress up after ripping up the dining room carpet and scrubbing the hard wood floors on Friday.

Hungry Girl's Chinese Salad

Today I made this salad and it was so good.

Hungry Girl's 200 Under 200
Scoopable Chinese Chicken Salad

Ingredients

One 16-ounce package of dry broccoli slaw mix
12 ounces cooked skinless lean chicken breast, chopped
1 cup canned water chestnuts, drained and sliced into thin strips
1 cup canned mandarin orange segments, drained and chopped
1 cup chopped scallions
3/4 cup Newman's Own Lighten Up! Low Fat Sesame Ginger Dressing (Soooo Goood!)

Directions

In a large bowl, toss all of the ingredients together and mix well.

Refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Stir well before serving. Enjoy!

I didn't wait to refrigerate and it was just as good. Brian liked it as well. I am not so sure about Alexis because she isn't feeling well. I checked out this cookbook from the library. There were too many recipes that I wanted to try so I bought a copy.

Mikey at one month

It has been a crazy month. Lots of adjusting and such. It is amazing how much Michael has grown. The best way to show it is with these two pictures. The first was taken the day he came home from the hospital and the next at one month.

Michael Loren Kinghorn

Michael was a bit stubborn getting here, but he was born today at 4:33 PM. He was 7 lbs 12 oz and 20.5 inches. We're excited to welcome him to our family.

Baby Update #4

We thought we would have had the baby by now, however we are mistaken. This last Friday we went into the hospital thinking we were in labor and were sent home. On Sunday we went in the hospital thinking once again we were in labor and we were sent home again. I was supposed to see the doctor yesterday morning, but my appointment was rescheduled for today because another lucky lady had her baby. So after seeing my doctor today and no real changes in my body, we will be going to the hospital tomorrow morning to be induced. The doctor assures me the baby will be born before midnight tomorrow. So stay tuned and we will keep you updated on the happenings.
