Happiness IS...

 *finding an interest in sewing and being proud you actually created something!  

thanks to Bonnie, my lovely sister in law who showed me how to make these cute bows... I figured I could make a skirt to match them, so I gave it a try and gave them to a friend for a baby gift.



*Waking up to this lovely princess and her cute 'bed hair'- makes me smile


* Finding yumm-o recipes 
 Fruit Dip
Combine 1 cup milk and 1 pkg. White chocolate Instant pudding
Fold into 1 - 8oz. container Cool Whip.  Chill.  Serve with delicious FRUIT


Guiltless Alfredo Sauce (super easy and i like to put this on homemade pizza with basil, tomato, pesto- or even chicken with some veggies) 
2 cup low-fat milk
1/3 c (3 oz) 1/3 less-fat cream cheese
2 T flour
1 t salt
1 T butter
3 garlic cloves
1 C grated parmesan cheese
Toss the milk, cream cheese, flour, and salt in a blender.  Then saute garlic cloves in butter over medium heat for about 30 seconds.  Add the 'blended' mixture to the pan and stir.  Keep stirring until thickened and add parmesan cheese.


*Hearing Jade (all on her own) pray for a 'baby brother'.  Very cute. 
*Waking up to Jade singing primary songs to Gracie- and them both laughing at each other.
