Re: Um, Wednesday? Oh Baby?

I don't think that you should cut it out - it's a really exciting time in your lives that you should absolutely discuss!
I have a baby - a 5 year old one - but she's my baby.

Mnkate - Congrats!!!
Bri - T&Ps for you.

BL - Thinking about you and I hope everything goes ok.
Dana - super cute baby decor they made for you!
I'm fine with that. I am on the Bump a lot, and have my Sept board over there to get my baby talk out of the way. I still want updates from everyone here, of course, but there doesn't necessarily need to be an entire day devoted to it.
Is that why everyone has left?!?!? Because of Baby Wednesday?!?!?
Count me in the
boat as well, Bri.
I highly doubt it was because of Baby Wednesday
There's no reason we can't have Baby Wednesday but I know for myself, I don't have much to say about it. Maybe do a combo of chit-chat and baby wed.?
I don't think everyone's left.. I've only noticed a couple ladies that are absent (although I'm sure they are lurking). It's not because of Baby Wednesday though, at least, I don't think that it is. I certainly hope that it's not, because one of the ladies missing actually suggested Baby Wednesday!

Another acronym question: What is BFP?
I had just learned all the TK abbreviations, too...

Hey Ladies! I have a crazy busy day, but wanted to pass this along to all the teachers out there:

BFP=big fat positive (on a home pregnancy test)
Haha. Cute.

I am so proud of myself. I have tests/quiz schedules all planned for three of my five levels (one class with two levels will not get one) and I posted them on the interwebz for the people to see.
Also, I ate like a five year old at lunch today. I had Spaghetti Os with meatballs at lunch with a pear and an apple.

Deepthi, I think we were all baby-talked out. I am trying a new recipe tonight and am hoping I can AW it tomorrow!

Just do it!
That was my attempt at being funny. Sorry.
We've been eating so badly recently. I haven't had the energy to cook. I'll have to start doing something soon. It's been bad. Do you have a good spot you get your crock pot recipes?
<a href="http://www.thenest.com/?utm_source=ticker&utm_medium=HTML&utm_campaign=tickers" title="Home D
Deepthi - I have several crock pot recipes pinned on Pinterest. One of my favorites involves chicken, a block of light cream cheese, a can (or two) of a creamy soup (like cream of chicken), maybe a little water, and then seasonings - like dry ranch or Italian mix. I've made a few variations of this same thing, and it always turns out great. I make it the night before with frozen chicken breasts, then shred the chicken & put it back in, and then serve over pasta or rice. It's yummo!
And also, I have a roast in the crock pot, with J hopefully remembered to turn on this morning (because I forgot). Is it dinner time yet?!?
I have tried a few from the 365 Days of Slow Cooking or whatever that blog is.

I made an enchilada soup from Skinnytase that was good--I posted it on my FB page.
A roast in the crockpot with potatoes and carrots is my favorite recipe though. I put in a can of beef broth too instead of water. My sister did pulled pork in the crockpot recently and brought me some--it was really good and I plan to try it soon. Another good one is a stew--just stew meat, cut up potatoes and carrots, a little onion and a can of stewed tomatoes. Really good in the winter.

I went home because Bill came home to let an A/C man in. I thought I'd spend a few extra hours with my husband. It seems like the hours and opportunities are dwindling even though we spend about the same amount of time together from week to week.
