I know this post is long over due, but I figured I’d tell you about our Thanksgiving anyways, because we ended up in the hospital again!  Man, when it rains it pours!  I hadn’t been in a hospital in years, almost decades, and now it happens three times in a two month period!  So, with [...]

Sam’s been eating his share of fruits and vegetables for the past 6 weeks know, and we’ve noticed that he keeps asking for more and more.  So, we decided that it’s probably time for his to have something a little more consistent in his little belly.  Up to now, Melissa has been making Sam’s purees [...]

During spring and summer, I like making different recipes that I wouldn’t make at any other time of year. Which makes sense, because who wants a nice boiling pot of stew in mid-July?!?! Well, crazy people. But here is a simple spring/summer time recipe I love making because it always yields [...]

The Mother’s Day weekend is traditionally a big one in our families. Not only was it Mother’s Day, but it was also my mother-in-laws birthday on Saturday, my brother-in-laws birthday on Sunday and my own birthday on Monday. So we had a lot to celebrate, and we did, with three days of [...]
