Recipes and lllooooonnnnngggg days!

I have created a new page on my blog called Recipes and you can find the link right under my page header. Just click on the word Recipes and it will take you to a new page. Any recipe that you want just click on the name of it and it will take you to a place where you can download a Microsoft Word document with the recipe on it. That way you can save it to your computer or even print it off. I have made 2 slow cooker recipes out of my new book this week and will do some more next week.

The days have been so long at the moment. Mia is very out of sorts and is basically having no sleep during the day. She is cranky and definitely not herself. She has now started to lose her voice (which actually sounds really cute!!) so I am wondering if she is coming down with a cold in addition to her teething. On the up side we have been having really nice walks down at the lake lately and Mia has been loving going to the park and especially going on the swing.

An exciting thing happened yesterday on our walk around the lake. All of a sudden Mia's arm shot up and she pointed to the lake and said "duck". And lo and behold down at the edge of the lake there were 5 ducks. The rest of our walk she was OBSESSED with the ducks constantly pointing and saying "duck". It was just SO cute!! Here are some photos of our latest walk around the lake...







Big news is that construction has finally started on our house!! After all the hassles, stress and worry things are finally happening! The cutting out has been done and the slab will be poured next Saturday!! We are so excited!!!
