WAY EASY Recipe

My mother-in-law gave me this recipe to try. I know it sounds a little strange but it is seriously good and it takes less than 15 min. from start to finish. Even my picky little Baylie loves it. The tortillas end up tasting like soft yummy noodles(which is what Mark thought they were the first time I made this.) This makes enough for four people so if your family is larger you may want to double it.

BEEF TACO SKILLET

1 lb ground beef
1/4 onion (diced)
1 cup salsa
1 can tomato soup
1/2 cup water
3 lg. tortillas (cut into 1 in. peices) I stack them on top of each other and cut them up with my pizza cutter.
1/2 cup shredded colby/jack cheese

Cook beef and onions together, drain grease. Stir in soup, salsa,water and tortillas, heat to boil. Reduce heat to low and cook for 5 min. Stir and top with cheese.

From the mouth of Kylie

Kylie's birthday is coming up soon and she has been planning her party for months. This morning she says to me.....
Kylie: Mom, you need to call Brooke's parents so they can get to know you so that they will let Brooke sleep over.
Me: How are they going to get to know me from one phone call I could be a serial killer and they couldn't tell over the phone.
Kylie: That's just dumb mom, why would you want to kill the cereal?

KISSES!

We went shopping, out to dinner, to the park (twice) out to lunch, got Zander's pictures taken (they turned out soooo dang cute!) watched Twilight and just hung out. I love you mom!!!! Thanks for all you do for us. I can't wait to see you again next friday!

A Hint of Spring!!!







It was so nice today so we went for a walk as a family. It was so nice to get out of the house!!!! Zander fell asleep in his stroller. You can't see it very good but he has a toy in his mouth, he fell asleep while playing with it. It was so funny I just had to take a picture.

No School for Kylie




Kylie was out of school Thursday and Friday for parent teacher conference, so poor Zander got tortured for 2 days.

Sitting up already!







Colds, Sleepless nights and Teeth!

Well, Zander has his first cold and he is a miserable little guy. He looks so sad, his little eyes are all red and watery and you can tell he just doesn't feel great. He hasn't been sleeping much either which makes mom pretty miserable too. The first 4 nights he was up every hour. I thought maybe he had an ear infection cause he wasnt really waking up stuffy so I figured something else must be bothering him. Nope, no ear infection but apparantly he is teething! I was sure hoping he would hold off on that for a few more months but I guess he is determined to do everything early. So that night I gave him some motrin right before bed and he slept from 9:30 pm to 7:30 am. Hallelujah! It was so good to finally get some sleep, I felt like I was turning in to a zombie.
