Naptime

I won't stay long since both girls are down. Things are good today. DH stayed home yesterday and today since he has a cold. Realistically, he'd do more damage at work. A lot of the people he's supplying chairs/beds/etc. have low immune systems and a simply cold could kill someone. So, yesterday it was nice to have him home. He went to work and they sent him home...and on his way he got me a present. :) He got me a pantry!! It's one of those press-board ones but it is nice...although I noticed a big scratch on one of the front doors. I care too little to bring it back, especially when it's all together with our stuff in it. Anyway, really excited to have it...only been wanting one since we moved in 3 years ago. Oh, and as an added bonus, he gave me his cold...what a dear. ;)

Yesterday E was in daycare so it was nice to have some 1-on-1 time with L. I love to gush over her but won't do it in front of E. Don't need any jealousy issues this early on. Anyway, on DH's way home yesterday, the van overheated. He tired to find the leak but couldn't. He brought it to the shop and the leak is in the line supplying heat to the back of the van. It's a huge convenience and I hate to give it up with the kids, but it's a $400+ job. So, they're gonna by pass it. Oh, and while he's there, we're getting our "fobs" programmed. We got them for our old van, and then I wrecked it. I always meant to have it reprogrammed for the new van...now's the best time with our hands full.

Other than that, I'm just home with the girls, about to take a nap. E & I made the choc chip cookie recipe from DD. You can tell chickpeas are in the batch but I don't mind so much...5 cookies later. :) E liked it too and ate one with gusto. I also made the yogourt pops but we didn't try them yet...afternoon snack. :) Next week I'm planning to make 3 recipes for the days E's home: Quesadillas, Taco "cigars" and Sloppy Joes. And I'm still dying to make the Choc-PB dip. Yummers!!! Who knew eating fruits and veggies tasted so good! I'm thinking I should make a DD diet out of this...well, I guess I sort of am. Just need to control my portions. 5 cookies in one day isn't good, even if they're healthier. Same with the choc chip cupcakes. I ate 3 yesterday. Couldn't help myself! Guess I need some sugar detox.

Well, better get going so I can rest while the girls are down. Hope you're Friday's a great one! Enjoy the wknd!!!
