Paige in the Park

Monday, June 19, 2017
We took some time to get warmed up to the idea of One Year Old smash cake pictures in the park. Needed a paci and a Momma before a smile was cracked.

Recipe Repost: Hasselback Potatoes & Green Bean Salad

Tuesday, June 13, 2017
You thought I might actually post a new recipe on the blog??! Sadly No, this one is a repeat from 7 years ago, so I thought you may have forgotten about it :)  Au contraire, we spent a good portion of our evening in urgent care because the lil cutie spiked a 102 fever. Since no other symptoms were present, hoping it resolves itself ASAP.

REPOST from June 2010:
Ross has devised a weighted risk analysis of dinner preparation. Let me explain. If a meal is a lotta work, but doesn't taste really really great then, it's scored lower in the "Dinner Matrix." However, if a meal isn't too complicated AND tastes great then it gets a high score from Ross. Overall, the more time you spend on a meal, the better it should taste and if it doesn't then it's not a winner. My little engineer...er ... well,  how about just my engineer. :)

I really have no idea what hasselback means, but these Hasselback Potatoes are so good. If you have 5 minutes to slice a potato and 40 minutes to wait while they bake, then these are a great side for you!
There is something so good about EVOO, rosemary, and sea salt. It makes my mouth sing. Definitely not my voice.

This green bean and tomato salad was really good too! Fresh basil, red onion, and red wine vinegar add such a nice flavor to the otherwise bland green beans. I don't know about you, but I eat with my eyes and when I see a whole bunch of colors on my plate. I. Must. Eat. Exhibit A.

Our protein was grilled jerk chicken. It had the perfect grill marks, but not much flavor because so much of the marinade cooked off. I would recommend a pre-made rub for a quick, easy flavor infusion. Just remember to watch the sodium!!

Happy (Healthy) Eating.

Paige at the Lake

Monday, June 12, 2017
Paige's favorite spot at the lake house this past trip may have been the back door. She loved standing up on the door and watching what was going on outside, while staying in the cold air conditioning. Roma would put her nose up to the outside and Paige would put her nose up to the window on the inside.

Plastic Pool

Sunday, June 11, 2017
What do you do at the lakehouse when the water is still a bit chilly? Plastic Pool. The girls had a blast... most of the time. Let's just say it's also good that there were 2 identical pools for when the threenager Claire decided she didn't want little sister in the pool. Paige drank a fair amount of pool water. Better than the lake water? :)




Can you tell they're sisters?!

Flashback: Claire at 11 Months

Monday, June 5, 2017
For a quick Paige/Claire Comparison, Check out out Claire's 11 Month pictures. They're definitely seeesters but they also look quite different right?

**REPOST from Feb 5 2015**

This time around it was basically impossible to get a picture with the monthly sticker circle.

Claire is enjoying peek-a-boo, clapping hands, shaking her head "No", and giving high fives.

Paige at 11 Months

Sunday, June 4, 2017
My littlest baby girl is 11 months old! Paige Renae is pulling up on everything and getting more and more adventurous about letting go, but we haven't had first stand-alone steps yet. She is a great eater; pizza and avocado are her favorites, peas and eggs are not. Paige's hair is really filling in and she's got 7 (sharp) teeth. I am ramping down on milk production and this little is just eating more pizza to make up for it. It's going to be bittersweet when I get rid of all the bottle, pump, warmer, etc things in a few weeks.





Mad Girl.




Seeeeesters!
