Duds for Doodlebugs

Ok so I have to brag about the consignment sale, "Duds for Doodlebugs," that I went to last night. I really did not know what to expect, but my friend Christina told me it was worth driving to Hattiesburg to go. I'm normally not into used stuff or garage sales b/c I don't really like to dig through junk to find a few good things, but this sale was AMAZING...everything was in excellent condition. I am SO glad I went! I spent $99 and got Ethan a ton of stuff all in perfect condition! I got.... 9 pairs of pants, 4 pairs of pajamas, 6 shirts/onesies, 4 fleeces/hoodies, 1 pair corduroy overalls, a one piece GAP sweatsuit, 3 pair of shoes, a nice thick coat, 4 infant toys, and a bath seat!

New Recipe

So Scott and I decided to try and find a chicken Parmesan recipe, and we found this one. It is FABULOUS, and so easy to make. =) I thought I would share!

Ingredients:

* 4 boneless chicken breasts
* 1 egg
* 1/2 cup milk
* seasoned bread crumbs
* 2 to 3 tablespoons olive oil
* 8 slices mozzarella cheese, or more (I used grated Mozzarella cheese)
* 1 jar (16 oz) spaghetti sauce
* Parmesan cheese

Preparation:
Whisk together the egg and milk. Dip the chicken breasts in milk and egg mixture and then in bread crumbs. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the chicken in the hot oil on both sides until golden, about 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Set chicken in a baking dish.

Slice 8 pieces of mozzarella cheese and put two on each chicken breast. Pour 1 jar of your favorite spaghetti sauce over all. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and a little more mozzarella and bake at 350° for about 25 to 30 minutes, or until bubbly. Serve over spaghetti, with garlic bread and a nice green salad.

Ok so I thought this was funny!

6 Months

Ethan is 6 months old! Seriously, where did the time go? He weighed in at 19 lb 11 oz, and 28 inches long! Both are in the 85th percentile. He is still a big boy!

New York

Scott and I just got back from a 5 day trip to New York City. Scott had never been, and we decided to go while we still just had one child and it would be easier to go. We had a BLAST! We were there on my birthday which was really fun. We tried to do all the tourist stuff, and got to do most of the stuff we wanted to do. =)

New Hobby

Ok So I have a new hobby: Painting picture frames!! I am selling them for $10. I can paint many different colors, and do the frames with/without the bow. I also can do a darker stain, like the ones that are striped, or a lighter stain, like the polka dot ones.

Email me if you would like one!
