What I Love About You...6 Weeks

Here is Caroline at SIX weeks. I really cannot believe it's been that long! She is such an amazing blessing to us! Thank you, Lord!!!





I Love:
-how you look like a little lobster in your swaddle.
-how you love your swaddle! You sleep well in it!

-how you have started to enjoy your "baths" (you still haven't lost your cord) much more. You don't scream nearly as much as you used to!


Mrs. Tammy, I LOVE my towel! I use it all the time!!!


-how you look so cute in your sleep positioner! This is how I found you this morning. You had slid yourself way down! It wasn't bothering you any either. I had to wake you up to go sign on our house!


-how you play with your Daddy. Although, this picture might freak a few people out. ;) (He's careful, I promise!)


-to watch you with your Daddy. He is such a great Daddy and takes really good care of you! I am so thankful for him!!! (I LOVE this picture!!!)


-your little fat-fat that you have now. You were so skinny when you were born and still are, but you are starting to show a little baby fat now. So cute!



-how you love to just hang out on your changing pad. You just stare at your pretty pink walls and are so happy!


I actually have more pictures, but the memory cards they are on are acting up. I hope to get the pics off soon and I will share ASAP!

Buffalo Chicken Pasta

Several people have requested this recipe and this was the easiest way I could think to get it to them. I hope you all enjoy it. We certainly do!


Buffalo Chicken Pasta
· 1 lb. favorite spaghetti-like pasta, fully cooked and drained
· 1 - 1 1/2 lbs. boneless, skinless chicken breasts
· salt & pepper, to taste
· 2 c. chicken stock
· 8 oz. cream cheese
· 1/8 c. hot sauce (more or less, depending on desired intensity. 1/8 c. will be mild in flavor.)
· 1 c. Ranch or Bleu cheese dressing

1. Season chicken breasts with salt and pepper to taste. Place in a skillet with chicken stock, bring to a boil, cover and simmer for 15 - 20 minutes, or until the chicken is fully cooked. Remove chicken and reserve 1/2 c. cooking liquid.
2. In a saucepan, combine the cream cheese, hot sauce and reserved cooking liquid. Cook over medium-low heat until the cream cheese is completely melted. While the sauce is cooking, shred or cube the cooked chicken.
3. Add the dressing and chicken to the saucepan, stir to combine, and then toss with the cooked pasta.
