Ham and Cheese Crescents

Heat oven to 375 degrees.  Separate 1 8oz. can Pillsbury Crescent Dinner Roll dough into triangles.  Place 1 thin slice of ham and 1 thin slice of cheese (whatever kind you like) on top of each triangle.  Roll up and place on an  ungreased cookie sheet.  Bake for 12 to 16 minutes or until golden brown.  These are super easy and would be good for breakfast or as an appetizer.

Lake Day

We had fun in Granbury today!  I think the first picture is so funny because it's the tiniest pool.  Bethany was still napping, so Zachary was enjoying some time with Daddy.
Then she woke up!
We all went for an afternoon boat ride.
The cousins enjoyed playing together.

First Haircut

Today has been nice because Aaron's taking some vacation days.  We went on a morning walk using Adam and Bridget's double stroller.  Then we got out some toys we had been saving for when they got older.  After lunch, I took Zach to get his first hair cut!  I wasn't sure what to expect, but the lady at Great Clips was super fast, and she gave us a card with his first clip of hair to put in his baby book.  He cried when she sprayed his hair, but I was able to calm him down.  Hopefully we won't have to go back for a while!

We've hit double digits!

What is it about double digits that makes my babies seem so old?  They're now 10 months, just two months away from their 1st birthday!
I tried to get some measurements to write in their baby books.  Bethany weighed in at 19 pounds, 2 ounces.  Zachary hit the 20 mark!  He weighed 20 pounds, 4 ounces.  That was just with their diapers on!  They're both still about 28 inches long.

Video of the Day

Zachary's rocking back and forth now, so it shouldn't be long until he's moving like his sister!  Her favorite thing to do right now is "walk" around and around the play yard (or whatever you want to call it).

Chicken Casserole

1 can chicken
1 can cream of chicken soup
chopped onions (optional)
1 cup macaroni
salt & pepper
1/4 cup grated cheese

Cook macaroni in about 4 cups of water for 10 minutes or until tender.  While this is cooking, mix together other ingredients.  Drain macaroni and then stir into mixture.  Sprinkle with cheese and bake 45 minutes in 350 degree oven.  I plan on doubling this recipe so we have more leftovers!

What's Next?

This is from a couple of days ago.  Bethany's been pulling up on EVERYTHING this week!  Zachary's just now starting to crawl backwards, but I'm sure he'll catch up to her eventually.  Something else I haven't been able to catch on video yet is Zach laughing at Bethany while we eat.  I love his little giggle!  She'll shake her head back and forth, and he thinks it's hilarious.  We're now eating oatmeal at breakfast, fruit around lunch, veggies during the afternoon, and then our bedtime bottle.  They still get about 20-24 ounces of formula in a day, but in just about two more months we won't be buying formula anymore.  Woo-Hoo!
