They say the second one is supposed to be a breeze but Baby Sid decided to make it difficult. However he has been a piece of cake ever since. Such an easy baby, always happy or sleeping.
I do have to start him on solid food soon, which means I will be starting to share my baby food recipes with you as well.
I have been putting it off because nursing him is so much easier! I know, what a lazy mom!
*Last Wed we ended up going out to eat, since I still had the pork roast I used the same recipe this week. I cut the amount of beans in this recipe, way too many for us.
Happy Cooking

Since my toddler has started talking he has been making me laugh, constantly.
I try to remember all the funny things he says, but it is hard. I tell myself to remember that one, and I will write it down later. But when later comes I can’t remember what he said.
Sometimes it is just that he says a phrase that I say, or someone else always says and it is so cute coming out of his mouth. Lately he says “hey, what’s da big idea?” from Donald Duck.
The way he interacts with Baby Sid is so cute that I wish we were filming him at all times!
Last night Ian was taking a bath (our house is very small) and Baby Sid was in the living room in his swing with Dad. Baby Sid hadn’t felt well and started crying. Ian yells from the bathroom “It’s OK Baby Sid, I just takin’ a bath….Don’t worry Baby Sid, Mama’s commin’…..Shhh, it’s OK Baby Sid, I almost der.” And other things of that nature, even though Baby Sid had stopped crying and was just making noises now.
I have been putting up a few of our conversations up on my Facebook page and I hope to put some up here as well.
He had us crackin’ up all weekend. It was really nice that my husband finally had a weekend off and the kids and I didn’t have any plans. We all spent the whole weekend at home. We did a lot of building with Legos.
Update: This morning after Ian came out of his room and this was our conversation
Ian: Mama, where your brudder at? (He calls Baby Sid ‘your brother’ because that I what I sometimes say)
Me: he is still sleeping
Ian: I go see him
Me: he is sleeping, please don’t wake him up
Ian: I be quiet, like dis (he then starts to whisper) I say ‘it’s OK, Baby Sid’
Me: ok, but don’t wake him please
Ian: (after coming out of the bedroom, with a panic in his voice) I can’t find him, Baby Sid not der
Me: yes, honey, Baby Sid is in our bed, sleeping
Ian: no Mama, he all gone, I can’t find him
Me: don’t worry honey, he is just sleeping (I pick him up to show him)
Ian: Baby Sid all gone (he is starting to cry) I can’t see him, I can’t find him!…..Oh, der he is, he sleeping, he so cute…..whew, dat was close
As I discussed last Monday I use a meal planning program to plan out my meals for the moth or week.
The program I use is an online program that stores recipes and has a drag and drop style planner. Once the meals are planned it generates a shopping list which you can edit and move items to a pantry list. There are many other features that I really like; the ability to share recipes with other members, easy importing from websites or blogs, and many others.
If you want to learn more about it you can go to their site and try it for free or purchase a subscription today at 50% off!
