April Life Lately

Time for the end of month roundup of all the randomness I didn't have a post for earlier! And this is 90% Paige, so if you don't like adorable babies...come back next week. {grin}

P has not been interest yet in the jumperoo. She just kind of sits in it confused.

I also saw it called #circleofneglect on social media - that cracked me up.

Dying over head wraps - these weren't in when Drew was little.

Sisters 'working out'

I love Drew's fashion sense - she dressed both herself and Paige.

I CANNOT get enough of this sweetness.

We need to talk about her inappropriate hand gestures. No hook 'ems, Paige!

Should I just call this post 'Lots of sleeping Paige pics'?

Gig 'em! That's my girl!!!

He really is the best big brother in the world.

Trent the Tattoo Artist

Trying to figure out her eye color...

I mean for real...she kills me.

Organizing eggs by color before our egg hunt at my parents' house.

Where I took approximately ZERO pictures.

She loves this monkey!

Crazy eyes because WE CAN HIP CARRY!!! Game changer!

We have entered the 'everything in the mouth' stage.

Grabbing feet!!!

Matching the puppy's pigtails

We had lunch on our town square - me, Brent, 2 friends, and Paige.

She sat in our laps and just looked around and loved it.

Doing a Star Wars play. Love this kid.

We tried the Merlin...she wasn't ready. Womp, womp.

If you're wondering why there aren't more pictures of Trent, this is why. Sigh.

We moved Paige into her room for bedtime!

She still naps on me during the day...but hey, baby steps!

Side ponytail!

Hanging out with Rhett...her future hubby.

Eating feet!!!

Here's hoping May is just as awesome!

Recipe: Breakfast Bake

I found this recipe from 100 Days of Real Food a few years ago and my dad started making it for our Christmas morning breakfast. I decided to make it as a freezer meal for after Paige was born because we love to have breakfast for dinner. It's a great meal to make ahead and freeze, it's nutritious, and it tastes yummy.

Ingredients:
-1 pound of breakfast sausage
-1 1/2 cups of frozen hashbrowns
-2 eggs
-1 1/2 - 2 cups of cheese {I use more because we love cheese!}
-1/2 cup whole wheat flour
-1 cup milk
-3/4 tsp baking powder
-salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Brown sausage. {The original recipe calls for chopped onions and bell peppers, cook those too if you like them - we don't, ha.}
3. Pour sausage into an 8x8 or 9x9 ungreased baking dish.
4. Stir in frozen hashbrowns and 3/4 cup - 1 cup of cheese into the sausage.
5. Mix together flour, baking powder, salt and pepper in a separate bowl. Add the cup of milk and 2 eggs. Whisk gently until all mixed together. Pour into baking dish.
6. Cover with remaining cheese.
7. Cook for 35-40 minutes until cheese is golden brown.
8. Enjoy!

I eat it with Chalula hot sauce sometimes, and that's amazing too!
