It's Amazing..

that Sage caught this cucumber (she requested that I post this)

and

that Micah slept for 6 hours (I feel like a new woman!)

P.S. My children don't always run around naked but it's been hot as Hades lately so I don't mind

Yum Yum Monday

Hot days are coming to a close so I'm trying to enjoy all of my summer salads one last time. Chicken, Spinach and Cashew Salad with Honey Mustard Dressing is one of our standbys.

Go here for the recipe.

It's a Hard Knock Life

Micah here. Let me tell you, it's ruff (with a capital R) being the baby around here. I have this big sister who's always mugging on me...smothering me with kisses and cooing over my cuteness. Mom says Sage adores me and she means well...I'll let you decide for yourself.

Exhibit A
She is constantly taking my picture. When Mommy uploads photos she finds dozens of blurry pictures and videos of me doing nothing.

Exhibit B
She adjusts me...scary! Check out the look of terror on my face.
I'd like to leave the adjustments to the professional around the house, thank you very much.

Exhibit C
She builds tents and makes me join her inside.

Mom says that some day we'll be best friends and play together all day.

Even though I like to complain about big sis I can't wait for that day.

Just don't tell Sage.

Yum Yum Monday

We tried these Chicken Enchiladas for the first time last night and our mouths were wowed....best enchiladas I've had since my BYU days (Los Hermanos anyone?).

Love Sweet Love

See that book on the left? Sage was reading him a story


We call him Micah Moo
and
we kiss him
and
smell his sweet baby smell
and
delight in his coos and smiles.

We're in love.

Listen Up

The Be Good Tanyas have an easy, folksy sound that I love.

Firsts and a Last

First smiles from Micah this week...darling!

First 4-hour stretch of sleep for Micah (and me)...hallelujah!

First time exercising....it felt so good!

Last 10 pounds to go--I gained 40 pounds this pregnancy and yes, truth be told, I weighed more than my hubby by the end...crazy!
