Happy Days

I've so enjoyed spending time with my little love bug at home. I was sad to take her out of her dayhome because she loved the provider and all her little friends. But it's turning out just fine. She's really becoming Mommy's little helper and I'm so happy I've had some time with just us before a new little person arrives. Annika is pretty excited to be a big sister and I think she's going to do great. Of course there will be a period of adjustment, but it will all go well, of that I'm sure.

Yesterday we ran around doing a bunch of errands and today I have to continue on that same vein and try to get everything done before I am out of commission for a while. This evening I think we're going to order our new King size mattress - yay!! We're super excited to have a king mattress..it'll be so nice and spacious! Neither of us has ever really had a proper bedroom set before, so having a brand new set is really exciting. We got Annika her big girl set and moved her into her new bedroom the first couple days of January and she's adjusted beautifully. She sleeps well every night, and we're happy about that.

While at home I've been able to put a bit more time into actually cooking suppers now that I'm home in the afternoon. Yesterday we had this for supper:
From Skinnytaste recipes - Broccoli Cheese & Potato Soup
Oh boy, it was yummy! We thoroughly enjoyed it! I also made a turkey soup that is frozen and ready for us to use when I'm not up to cooking some evening in the future. And I made a big crock pot full of bolognese sauce (also from Skinnytaste recipes) that is frozen and ready for us to dig out one night. 

If you haven't come accross Skinnytaste yet, I recommend you check it out - I love searching through the recipes. There are a number of recipe blogs that I've enjoyed getting ideas/meals from. 

Hope you all have a great day!
Penny
