Baked..

So I began wondering what dessert I was going to make for Thanksgiving and asked Oscar to pick something for me to bake- from scratch, so he searched for a or shall I say two recipes. First one was Chewy Chocolate M&M bars and the other one was Banana Fudge Cookies.  So I loaded up with a LIST of ingredients I needed and headed to the grocery store. Only taking me 30 mins to find everything I needed, I started to get confident about this baking thing I was about to take on.  I get home and clear the counter and pull out the mixing bowls and measuring cups...I was ready!  I took on the Chewy Chocolate M&M bars first and they turned out pretty yummy!  Second, I started the Banana Fudge Cookies- They turned out not too bad for a trial run....  Needless to say for the first time that I actually baked something from scratch by myself, I was pretty proud of myself and I will be taking on more baking soon!!! Just hope the second time is even better!! Ill keep you posted on that! Pics and reciepes soon to follow!

I can't believe I just said that...

Today at work I had this patient who came in and has been in for the last 3 weeks... Every time she comes in she makes it a point to remind me that she is not used to being "THIS HEAVY" she has gained soooo much weight and so forth. Well, today she reminded me as she sat down in the chair and the whole Unit shook-and I said, "Oh well you carry it well." Hahaha Did I really say that? Why Yes I did...I couldn't believe it but then laughed like crazy as I walked into the Lounge to tell whoever I could. WOW! I wonder if she was cussing me in her head or if she even got it. Anywho- I am looking forward to tomorrows work day- I only have one patient and then  I will be home with my boys all next week. YIPEE!!!

Lost & Found-

When I got home today, Talans pacifer was missing in action. We have went through so many pacifiers and this time I refuse to buy anymore. I have come to the conclusion that it was just time to go pacifierless... So Talans nap time didn't go so well without it but he fially knocked out for about an hour or so.  Now I remind you, today was a half day so I made it home about 1. It is now 7:30pm and he has done great with some whinning up to now.  Yes it is still LOST until...dun dun dun....Daddy FOUND it. Darn it, I was really going to be strong with this. Darn it Daddy!!! And then another find....dun dun dun....Talans molar is coming in! Whew- I am glad I am not attempting this paciferless thing now! I promise I will do this after Christmas! Any suggestions??

Before I go- I need more help.  When I clean my house it always smells so good, but it only last for a little bit and then when I go somewhere and come back- No smell. I need something that will smell all day everyday. I am obsessed with candles but they aren't cutting it for me. I don't know what else to use because I dont want to start wasting money on things that wont work or do the trick for me.  So any ideas will help. Thanks.
