Cooking, Eating, and it Shows!

As promised I have new belly pics! =)

Over the weekend we got our Christmas photos done (yay!).
John and the boys are always so great to cooperate with me so well.

As always I spend my time cooking, and then of course eating, and as you can se from the pics it shows! lol

Here's some of last weeks dishes:

Jamaican Chicken Soup

Mushroom and Burgundy Wine Fondue

Roast Pork with Home-made Macaroni, Gravy Green beans (UNcanned) Avocado Slices

Chicken Parmesan, Home-Made Marinara, Whole Wheat Pasta

Tilapia Ready for the Grill!

Curry Shrimp Over White Rice

Surprised them with Home-made Sugar Cookies! Can you tell which is for John and Which for the boys?

I LOVE cooking for my family, I know how much they enjoy getting a healthy, tasty home-cooked meal daily.
They deserve it after a day of school and work, it's the least I can do.
I try to be as healthy as possible (want to keep him in the same shape I found him in, lol, plus I'm not ready for a double chin either),
but baking was my original love before I got into cooking, so every so often I have to pull out the flour and sugar and make it happen!

Had a relaxing weekend. Ethan invited my sister over for a sleep over, the boys love their Inky Binky!

I am ready to get back to the flow of the week.

Long Awaited

Ethan has had the typical "little brother" problems. A huge one being that he has been going to all Kaidens scouting activities for 2 years and couldn't participate. Being the observer of your bigger brother having fun... not so much fun. Then we had the move to Dubai, so what should've been his first year, wasn't. He was so excited and was all smiles at his very first scouting event where he could participate! I can't get over how cute and official he looked in his uniform. He took every belt loop he earned extremely seriously. It's also weird to see Kaiden in his webelo uniform, I always saw it as for the "bigger boys". I guess my little Kaiden is one of the big boys now.

Mr. and Mrs. John Benham!!!

This is the moment we have both been waiting for for years! It was perfection. Nothing short of magical. We had quite a bit of time after getting ready, there were so many emotions, so happy I laughed, so happy I cried. I love these photos and am so happy that every moment was captured. Can't wait to see the professional ones! Waiting for the go ahead It's time!! Everyone ready t...

Because Of You

Daddy, because of you I...well, exist. Because of you I know I am special because you told me every day.Because of you I made it through some really hard times, you were and are still always there for me. Because of you I always know I have a friend to listen that always has my back. Thanks for letting me watch T.V. when I wasn't allowed to, bringing me home chocolates and pepsi (which was a BIG deal back then). Thank you for everything you have done for me, and I hope you know how much I love you. Jesse, because of you I have the 2 most wonderful little boys in the world. I know we may not always see eye to eye but when it comes to our boys we can always come together and do what is best for them and I appreciate that, and I am sure when they are old enough to understand what we do for them, so will they. John, because of you the boys have a good role model. Because of you I get to show them by example what a loving, caring relationshi...
