Help me... I can't cook!

I'm trying to become a better house wife and now that I've tackled the cleanliness portion I need to start cooking. Growing up my mom hated cooking so I never really learned how. Chris's mom on the other hand is a great chef so he is used to healthy home cooked meals. I'd love to be able to give this to him so I'm asking for your help! Quick and easy meals would be best since I'm caring for this cutie all day!

Busy Friday!

I really shouldn't be taking a break from my busy Friday but I just can't stay away from the oh so addicting blogging world! Chris comes home today... he's been at Lake Arrowhead since Tuesday morning and boy have we (bear and I) missed him! It's the first time I've been alone with Landon and since I don't like to be alone he had his first sleepover! On Wednesday night we spent the night at my mom's house and it still feels like home to me! I just realized that I use exclamation points a lot!!! Anyways my mom and I stopped in at Home Goods yesterday to pick up a few things for my master bedroom transformation! I scored big and I can't wait until it's finally complete (considering we've lived here for over a year now)! It's not easy decorating when you have no money so new furniture will have to wait and I'll just have to deal with our ugly birch furniture. If any of you would like to donate pretty white furniture I wouldn't turn you down :). Oh and speaking of donations... hard wood floors and stainless steel appliances would be greatly appreciated too! I've realized that getting anything accomplished with an almost 3 month old is nearly impossible so I'll go ahead and guess that all my home projects won't be finished any time soon :(. It will be so nice to have my husband back... so I can finally go grocery shopping, pick up some fabric to make curtains (which I won't be doing because I can't sew), drop things off at the dry cleaners, get my car detailed, and pick up frames. Hope you guys have a beautiful Friday and thanks for listening to me ramble on about nothing particularly important!

Update in Pictures!

I figure the easiest way to update you guys on our busy life is by posting pictures from my iphone that I've taken in the last couple months!

Chris and I were in our friends Emily and Andrew's wedding on May 7th!

My boss took us to Disneyland and Club 33 for our end of the school year party!

I've been spending a lot of time at the pool!

Chris and I celebrated our 1st wedding anniversary and he got me these!

I'm the Matron of Honor in one of my best friend's wedding in October and we celebrated her engagement at Borderline!

Chris's grandma visited form New Hampshire for a week... it was so much fun and we miss her already!

I celebrated my 24th birthday and I was so excited to get this Steve Madden purse I've been wanting!

This cutie is almost 3 months old and he brings so much happiness to our lives!

It's been a while...



I've been busy enjoying my time with Landon! I can't believe how quickly these two months have gone by! He has already grown in so many ways and it brings tears to my eyes! I spend all day with him and I still can't get enough! Here are a few updates: last night was the first time he slept through the night (we pray it will continue), he smiles all the time, he loves talking & grunting, he is such a good eater & he drinks between 4-6 oz of formula at each feeding (I tried breastfeeding and pumping but I didn't have enough milk), he wears 0-3 & 3 month clothes, his eyes are still blueish gray & his hair is strawberry blonde, he loves his bouncer & his play gym, and he loves staring at the fan! We love him more than we could have ever imagined and we are so so happy to be his parents!!!
