another first

a few weeks ago princess announced her tooth wiggled!! WHAT??? you are only five. but sure enough her lower front tooth was quite wiggly. for a couple of days she would not eat much, but couldn't wait for it to come out.

well, frankly, i'd forgotten about and i think she had, too. yesterday, hubby and i had to spend the day in indy. my dear friend was a willing spirit and took my kids for the day. not too bad. the girls had preschool and of course would play but then she had to get mapboy plus her 4 other kids and have them all home doing homework, feed them all, then drop my 2 off at my sister-in-laws! she is a good friend:)

anyways...hubby and i were just pulling into arby's on our way home when my cell phone rings. i see it is dear friend and figure she was calling to tell me the kids were great and at their aunts. well she did tell me that. then she asked: "um...did princess have her tooth this morning?" huh!?? i tell her i'm pretty sure she did and she said mapboy said he was pretty sure she did, but the tooth was gone and nowhere to be found!!

so we are 99% sure the tooth came out with the apple slices and went down with the apple slices. what is it with my kids eating their teeth!? when we got home to get them, she looked up at me with the cutest toothless grin! she is very proud and made sure we wrote a note to the tooth fairy not to take it out of her tummy but that leaving money would still be nice! so the tooth fairy cooperated and princess was thrilled to find the prize this morning.

oh those firsts...it seems like there are fewer and fewer of those each day, but this one, well, i guess i'll have to scrapbook it!

me, on politics

i despise politics. i never liked it, but i married a man fascinated with it. a man who wanted to be part of it all...and was, briefly. boy were our eyes opened... anyways...it seems like this election has several hot button topics. one of which is universal healthcare. my cousin started a blog called politics for mom and there have been several heated debates going on. i was reading several comments on healthcare. and frankly i was bothered! now, i don't know that a strict universal healthcare is the answer, but i do know that we have now doesn't work for the average person. here is our story.... hubby worked in a small business - 3 employees at the most that i can remember. we paid 1/2 our insurance..until it came to the point where our half each month was twice what we would pay if we were on our own. but for the owner it saved him money. so he agreed to cover ours in full. we were very grateful. i also know at times, that because of the healthcare cost, it was a struggle f...

life with izzie b

so i'm out of town right now and this time with my friend izzie b (names have been changed to protect the people we know). we are actually at a conference that is rocking my world, but we are two crazy girls alone in a big city. anyways.....she is a weird person. she likes car rides and she likes to watch the sunrise while riding in the car so we started our trip at 5:30 AM!!! 5:30 AM friends...ugh. but we had a non-eventful trip and honestly it wasn't so bad. i'm weird so i had packed us ham and cheese sandwichs. we stopped several times to get out and walk. we stopped for gas somewhere a bit redneck and they sold mostly fireworks. lots and lots of fireworks. that place also had some kind of super duper blue light hand dryer. it was honestly a bit freaky. then we checked in and found we had a smoking room. it was quite smoky and so we asked for a change. no luck, but the nice lady offered to bring up an odor remover machine while we were at the conference. um....

from the kitchen...

chicken bruschetta bake if you know me, you know my great distaste of tomatoes. i usually pick the tomato chunks out of my sgetti sauce. yes i just called it sgetti!! i eat all the chunks of my salsa, except the tomatoes. but over the past few years i've gotten a bit brave and will eat small pieces of tomatoes in fresh salsa and in this dish as well. i hadn't fixed this in probably over a year. but a few weeks ago i pulled out my recipe file to find some old favorites. i found this and realized i had everything in the pantry. that's a deal!!!!! i did have to switch out the diced tomatoes because my can was crushed instead. i prefer the diced but this worked just as well. the kids loved the chicken, but not so much the topping. this was great as leftovers, too. i ate it for lunch the following two days. 1 can. (12.5oz) diced tomatoes, undrained 1 pkg. stove top stuffing mix for chicken (i use aldi brand) 1/2 cup water 2 cloves garlic, minced 1.5 pounds skinless...
