Caleb and Cookies!

Caleb found the sugar cookies this morning while the kids were getting ready for school and quite enjoyed himself! He kissed everyone goodbye with frosting on his mouth, smiling, and waving "bah-bah!"

We all smiled and laughed. What a sweet beginning to our day!

Toddler Property Laws

I saw this today and it made me smile since I have an adorable, mischievous little 16-month old of my own!

Toddler Property Laws:
If I like it, it's mine.
It it's in my hand, it's mine.
If I can take it from you, it's mine.
If I had it a little while ago, it's mine.
It it's mine, it must never appear to be yours in any way.
If it looks just like mine, it is mine.
If I saw it first, it's mine.
If you are playing with something and you put it down, it automatically becomes mine.
If it's broken, it's yours.

Trying Something New!

I am really not a writer. However, I love design, color, and finding creative things to do. So I thought it would be fun to try to start my own blog. I really don't know what this will end up looking like, but thought I would share some of my favorite things and people with you!

Homemade Fried Rice?

I am trying a new recipe tonight for fried rice to make with Springfield Cashew Chicken. I have never had good luck making homemade fried rice, so hopefully tonight's experiment will turn out well! (I will leave out the peas and carrots, however!)

Recipe for Fried Rice & Sweet & Sour Chicken

Well, the picture looked great, but my version didn't turn out quite so well. I think it was a little strong with the soy sauce. Another recipe to "tweak!"
