Cool Kids

I haven't blogged as much as I'd liked lately. A couple of reasons.. one, because I haven't been feeling very confident and two, I've been trying to live in the moment more.

I haven't been extremely busy by any means, so that's no excuse. We did have a long weekend with family last weekend, Asa took his first steps, and we went to our old church and saw a lot of old friends. Which was a bit surreal. Being back in the church I grew up in, seeing all the friends I grew up with and their new babies was like visiting the future or something. And the even weirder thing was, I wasn't there with my new babies. Lincoln is huge. He's like a full grown little walking, talking kid. It left me feeling thoughtful and nostalgic.

And when I'm feeling thoughtful and nostalgic, inevitably, it starts me on the crazy train of thoughts.. who am I? what am I doing? what do I want? Am I doing what God wants me to be doing? All questions that drive my poor husband nuts. Seriously, I must be so entertaining to come home to everyday. Opening the door to my house is like a jack-in-the-box. I sure hope I'm slightly exaggerating...



Also, I did make this this week. I've been casually cooking through this Simple and Delicious magazine.



Isn't it pretty? It looked just like the picture. But, let me warn you, it wasn't very good. Everything seemed good, but it would have been much better with chicken. The sausage in there was just weird. I wouldn't bother making it if I were you.



Oh more big news... we got smartphones! We were basically the only people I know without smartphones, even my parents have them. Anyways, I'm loving mine, I feel so spoiled. We just hadn't been able to justify the extra cost when we have internet at work and home. But after getting rid of our $100 Directv bill I guess we thought we could handle it. It's nice being one of the cool kids now. 


These cuties watching basketball. We love March Madness. 


Oh this mess maker. Seriously, sometimes more food ends up on the floor than in that belly.


Did I mention this baby's on the move?
