Catch Up

Okay. So the blogging challenge hasn't been going like I really wanted it to. I don't have access to a computer, and now that I'm working, I just don't have time. So I'm just gunna be done with it.

We FINALLY got a house!! It's right behind Smith's Marketplace, so I will be able to walk to work! :)  I'll be moving all my stuff from Layton on Saturday, when I have to be out of that stupid place. The timing couldn't be better. Makayla has been sick. ALOT. We went the the ER last week, twice in one day. She had been throwing up, and it was freaking me out. We did find out that she has a nasty ear infection tho, and was put on an antibiotic for it. Well yesterday, she threw up again, because she was coughing so hard. Later that night, she wouldn't sleep, and kept coughing and crying. So at 1 am, I took her back to the ER. This visit was "short" [compared to the last time we were there...], we were home by 3:30. Makayla has bronchitis and pneumonia. ON TOP OF her ear infection. KILL ME. Why the freak isn't she EVER healthy??? It's so frustrating and annoying. Not because I'm up all night, but because she is up all night coughing so hard she pukes. She is too little to have to be in the hospital all the time. It's not fair.

the Dentist... {day 4}

I went to the dentist Tuesday...I haven't been in over 2 years...due to no insurance, and no money...at the end of my 2 hour appointment, the dentist {Dr. Gordon} proceeded to tell me I have "at least 3 root canals, a couple crowns, and a bunch of fillings"....which is going to cost me $2506....OUCH...

Cooking {day 3}

I love to cook. I believe that it is something every girl should learn growing up, so that when they go to college, or get married, they don't have to be learning to cook on top of everything else in their busy life. One of my FAVORITE recipes is for a cordon bleu pasta. And it's EASY!

2 jars Alfredo Sauce

1 box Penne Pasta

Chicken {rotisserie chicken works best, and is easiest, no cooking involved!}

1 container mushrooms

Green onions

Ham {i use a package of small, pre-cubed ham}

Bacon {I like the pre-cooked kind}

Mozzarella Cheese {about 2 cups}

Cook Pasta until it's halfway done. {it will finish cooking in the oven}

Saute mushrooms and green onions. When done, add ham, bacon {cut into small pieces} and chicken {pull apart, into bite-sized pieces}. Drain noodles, and put into 9x13 pan. Add one jar of alfredo sauce. Add everything else, and use the second jar of sauce on top. Cover with Cheese, and bake at 350 for 30 minutes.

Blogging Blues {day 2}

Okay, I know I'm really behind on the blogging challenge. But I don't have a computer, or the time anymore. I've started work, and the past few weeks, I've worked most days. I love my job, but when I get home I just want to spend time with Makayla and Mikey.

For the past 2 1/2 days, it has been snowing like it's December. It's down right depressing. We went from 60 degrees, to snow. When it first started, we all thought that it would be just a short, go-away-soon kinda thing. Oh no. It stuck. Blah. Snow after warm weather sucks.

April Showers Bring May Flowers? {Day 1}

Side note: Before I start my first post for the A-Z Blogging Challenge, I've got bummer news. Mikey took my computer away [Fine. It's really his computer, but I used it the most!], and got himself a stupid PS3. So I am still doing the challenge, but I wont be able to post everyday like I was hoping too. I'll post at least once a week, and catch up all the days I missed.

As most everyone knows, I HATE winter. By March I just get depressed when it snows. I do not like being cold, or wet. It's April 1st, and 60 degrees out. I hope it's done snowing. I L-O-V-E Spring, and the warmth that comes with it. I love being able to take Makayla to the park to play, or over to the zoo to see the animals. This summer I hope to keep her outside as much as possible. One of my bucket list items is to plant flowers. But I can't do it until the snow stops!
