Yum!

Since there is only so much I can write about changing diapers, taking walks, and rocking a baby to sleep, I decided to add a little variety to this blog and share with you some of my favorite new recipes that I have found.

Steak and Goat Cheese Quesidillas with Corn and Tomato Relish

Feta Sun-dried Tomato Turkey Burger Sliders (I made these as burgers rather than sliders and used Greek yogurt rather than mayo)

Spinach Feta Hummus (This one I cut the recipe in half and it still made PLENTY!)

Brown Eyed Girl

I prayed for them, possibly daily, throughout my pregnancy and I thought I got them, but then like most things in life, they changed.  Perhaps I should've specified that I wanted her to have them forever like her daddy, instead of just the first few months of her life.  Her blue eyes have come and gone, but don't worry, I don't love her any less.

On another note, she has one funny freckle on her belly.  Isn't that odd?  I think it's from sunning her when she was brand new for jaundice.  I never knew babies could have freckles.

Selfish?

When it comes to the baby girl I feel like a preschooler with a new toy that they don't want to share.  She is mine to play with and hold, but if you are nice to me I might let you look at her.  I struggle with my selfish behavior, I am not going to lie, but I like holding her so much that it is hard to give her up (if you don't believe me just ask the boy, he'll tell you).  I think it's because even though she can be a mess, I truly feel blessed to have her and want to cherish every moment with her.

Home Again, Home Again, Jiggity Jig

We left, the baby girl screamed, clawed at her car seat, started hyperventilating like it was killing her, we came home.  We made it about a fourth of the way but it took us twice the amount of time that it should've with all the stops to console the baby girl.  I guess we won't be attempting to take anymore trips for awhile.
