This kid wakes up with a huge smile plastered on his face every morning.
I have been down for the count all dang week. I still feel pretty terrible. Thank the good Lord for this massive playpen. I can lounge in it while little man plays.
I didn’t have our nanny come over Monday or Tuesday of this week since the roads were so bad. I had a two hour faculty meeting on Tuesday that I was a little nervous about having Coop with me for, but he was an angel and we knocked it out. We spent half of it at the kitchen table and the second half we sat on the floor in his room. It was great!
Then we got some good snuggles in, which turned into a nap for both of us.
Jake is making progress on our dining room! It’s going to be awesome.
Sometimes ya just need ramen when you’re sick. And some stuffed chicken breasts from Sam’s.
Jake got the dry wall up and a little mud put on some areas. We are getting closer!
This is what most of our week has looked like. We have taken a two hour nap together every day. I have loved it.
Raw chicken is disgusting to photograph, but I am calling this a huge win for how awful I’ve felt this week. I unloaded the dishwasher, got two loads of laundry washed, dried, and put away, and put dinner in the crockpot. I was done being productive after that.
Jake’s mom got Coop this outfit. It says, “Round up your daughters, there’s a new cowboy in town!” Haha!
Just two nappers getting some more snugs in.
There is nothing better in the whole world.
You need to make this recipe. Holy yum. The recipe is HERE. This is a sweet chili chicken and it will blow your mind. We put ours over jasmine rice and topped it with avocado and Sriracha. Jake said it reminded him of one of his favorite meals from a local Thai spot here in town. I made a huge batch and froze some of it. This needs to be a new staple in our house.
I still don’t feel great, but I think I am better than I was on Monday, so that’s good. Hopefully tomorrow I am back to normal…or at least closer to it. Fingers crossed!
Happy Wednesday, friends!
