Mission #1

Mission #1 Become a better wife.

My new years resolution is to become a better wife and a mother. 
Starting with cooking for my WAY too skinny husband! I usually don't have a plan or an idea of what we are going to eat so we end up eating ramen noodle stir fry for three days in a row, or getting some cheap pizza, or making and egg sandwich. You get the picture. So I am going to plan out meals so my poor husband can start packing on the pounds.(it probably wont ever happen! he has the metabolism of a 16 year old!) Yesterday it didn't go so well. I made what was supposed to be orange chicken with rice.. but it tasted like orange with a little rice. NO chicken!!! FAIL!! So instead of forcing my husband to eat the nasty stuff that even I refused to eat. I made scones instead. I don't have a bread maker, or a mixer, so I did this all by hand. Man was I impressed by my skills!! My husband tried a bite and said "you're HIRED!!" I guess I was fired cause of that nasty chicken.. But I did it. The scones turned out to be amazing! I even made a sugar syrup to go with them! :) I don't mind cooking when I feel like I can make something good! Two days in a row I have had something planned to eat!

On a side note, My sweet little 4 month old is a stinking smarty pants!! Here is the whole story.

Yesterday: Archer (4 month old) was sort of smiling at Kabe (Husband) and I, it almost looked like he was trying to hold his smile in by sucking on his bottom lip. We just laughed at him for a little bit and were wondering where he learned how to do that, then it hit me!! Earlier that day I was just messing around and teaching Archer to say mamamamamama and I had put my top lip over my bottom lip in an exaggerated way so that he would look at my face. Little did I know that he was studding me so he could do it too. He just makes the face and coos, so its not saying mamamama but he is getting the idea. I have a feeling we wont be able to keep him quiet when he figures out how to talk. He is too much like his daddy! Smart and Cute!!! I'm going to have to beat the girls away!! I already have to beat his aunts away! ;)

Here is a video of him sort of doing it!! :]
