Tacos, Beach, and Pregnancy

So I made this delicious batch of soft tacos for dinner tonight and Maddie loved them and so did I.  These are low fat, high fiber, great for weight watchers folks.  9 servings, 5 pts. each

1lb of lean ground turkey
1 onion (chopped)
1 small can of carrots (chopped)
9 5inch whole wheat tortillas
taco seasoning
1 can refried beans
you can spice it up with chili's, etc.
1. Sautee onion in EVOO
2. Ground turkey, drain
3. Add Carrots and beans and taco seasoning 
4. Cook  like you would regular taco meatThen scoop and roll in tortilla

Maddie loved them!!!!!Enjoy the pics of her eating dinner tonight and playing around with Mike in the kitchen. On Saturday, while my mom was here, Maddie broke her fear of the ocean. She not only loved playing in the wet sand, but eventually ventured down to the water and played a bit... with me close at hand. Also another bit of news... Mike and I are going to be having another baby! We are only about 5 weeks along at this point. But couldn't be more excited. Stay tuned for more info on Baby 2.

We're back!

Finally got our new computer and man is it great!!!! Since my last post in May a lot has happened. Most recently, though a congratulations is in order to Mr. and Mrs. Mike Martin. Thats right my sister Sarah got married on July 11th.

Maddie has been growing like a weed and is just about running around the house. We have finally invested in cabinet locks for the kitchen to keep her from playing with every pot and pan we have got. She now has 9 teeth, the front four on top and bottom and one molar coming in.

Mike has been working hard, trying to maintain and build sales at the store. And I have been working at Maddie's daycare this summer, working with the school age summer camp kids.

I promise to post more frequently from now on. I have kinda slacked off in the past months. I know that there are a lot of family and friends who check online to get updated pics of Maddie and us.

Where have we been?

Goodness, time has flown by and we have been into all kinds of stuff. Please keep checking for posts. We don't have a computer at the moment. Our mother board fried the other day. When we get our new one in the mail and set up next week I will update with pics and a few great stories.


We miss everyone, and keep checking us out! We will be back!
