More belly Pictures!

For those of you who ask and enjoy these here is the next set of baby bump pictures for you. I'm 14 week here as you can see I'm getting big real fast! These days I'm feeling much better thanks to pills that help with morning sickness. I'm truly grateful for them because I can't get past the day with out getting sick if I don't take them. By the end of July we should know what we are having.

The Baby Bump!

Some of you have been asking to see baby bump pictures of me. I'll share them on here first and think long and hard before I put them on Facebook. I get big like the minute I fine out. Ok, so it just seems like it. I had an ultrasound and found out things are going good this far. I'm due November 29th, that seems like a long time from now. I'm 9weeks and 4days in these pictures. Hope you enjoy them Emily!

Help desperately needed.

Help desperately needed.

This is a good friend of mines sister. Who is in need of our help. Please let me know if you would like to help out. I can give my friend Emily your donations. This a copy from her Blog post. Thank you!

Tragedy struck my sister and her little family, when at about 1am this morning, they woke to their front porch and front part of their house engulfed in flames. Within several minutes their entire mobile home was destroyed. They and their 6 month old little boy (and I think all their animals) escaped unharmed but lost everything they owned. They don't have renters insurance, nor a checking or savings account. All the money and belongings to their name, including the baby car seat, were burned in the fire. They left with just their pajamas on their backs, no shoes, no coats, no blankets for their baby boy. The fire department ruled their house as a total loss.

Prayers and donations are greatly needed as this little family begin to rebuild their home and completely start over. There has been a benefit account set up at Wells Fargo for money donations, just go to your local branch and tell them you are donating to FBO Samantha and Jon Pierce. Also, any kind of donation you would like to send to them, you can mail to:

495 Centennial Drive
Olathe, Co. 81425

Samantha is a size 11-13 in pants and M-L in shirts
Jon is a size 32x32 in pants and XL-long in shirts
Stacius is a size 6-9 months and size 3 diapers

Thank you in advance for your prayers and donations. Every little bit helps, weather it be a prayer or $5.00. I appreciate you for taking the time to help where you can.

Also, please pass the information to anyone you know that can help my sister and her little family. I am okay with you posting on your blogs or facebooks as well.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Chinese Chicken Salad!

My new love!

Last week I found a new recipe that I love and had to share it's so good!
Chinese Chicken salad:
1-Chicken Breast grilled and chopped (I buy the whole chicken already cooked and take the meat off.) 1/2 head of lettuce( I have use two different kinds so any kind.)
2- stalks celery chopped, 1-Stalk of green onion, 2-cans mandarin oranges, 1- 80z. can water chestnuts, 4oz. slivered or sliced almonds, and 1/2 C. Sugar.

Dressing:
1-cup oil,1/2 cup sugar, 2/3 cup Rice Vinegar, 2-Tablespoons Soy sauce and 2- teaspoons salt (note this makes a lot!)

Take your Almonds and the first 1/2 cup sugar and put in pan, stir till the sugar melts, then set on plate to dry.
Cut all your veggies
make your dressing and mixed it well.

If you plan to eat more then one day leave off the wet ingredient's and dressing. I put salad down and follow with layer of the rest. Then eat and enjoy!
P.S. I found this recipe on (makeitandloveit.blogspot.com)

Holiday season is over!
Hello, How are you my dear friends? We are good here. This holiday season was busy. I waited till Christmas eve to do my shopping. We have had many family dinners with loved one, a few birthdays and a baptism in the works. We also have been working on getting over colds. It seems like someone is always sick during this time of year. All and all this was a good year but can I say I'm so glad to have it all over with. I'm ready to have everyone one back on a normal day. With kids off from school and a husband home on vacation,it's time.(I do love them all.) I have been slowly working on putting the house back together. This is still in the works. I hope everyone has a good new year. Here is to 2010!

Christmas in our corner!

Yes, you guessed I have put up all the Christmas stuff before Thanksgiving. I don't know why this year I was so excited about putting up the tree. Perhaps it's because this year I was not pregnant or have a little baby that needs me every second. So Monday night I took on the challenge of putting up the big tree. I do have to tell you it's work and I still have some light's that are not working but you can't tell and I gave up trying. My girls like to redecorate the tree every day more then once. I will be happy to post pictures when my dearest fixes the computer. Happy Holidays and happy decorating!

Halloween fun 2009!
