November 8, 2008 - today we said goodbye to our crib. Wah!
For the past three years, five months and fifteen days it has been in use every single day and night. When I think about it, it's been such a haven of security and rest for both Alex and Sam. The past few months, however, it has become just another jungle gym for Sam, something to climb up and jump off of. So, away it went today to the recycled-kids'-stuff store - I hope it finds a good home.
I'll miss it. I can't believe my babies aren't babies anymore!
On a different topic: we made two yummy things this weekend. One was a fruit cobbler (thanks to Shari Kawashima) - just dump frozen berries, a box of yellow cake mix, and a can of diet Sprite into a pan and voila! I will use this one again!
The other was more laborious to make, but yummy and nutritious AND both kids ate it up and asked for more. And it's all made of vegetables! See
http://www.nutritionmd.org/recipes/view.html?recipe_id=579for this recipe for stuffed spaghetti squash. I did not steam it, since I don't have a steamer large enough, but baking it worked just as well. Again, time-consuming enough that I won't make it often, but it was very good.

Aah, bye bye crib! We took our crib down this weekend too. Got the boys a bunk bed (well, sort of, Sam's mattress lays on the floor and the top bunk is maybe 45" high). I am hoping to use it again though ;-)
I'm going ot have to try that fruit cobbler recipe, sounds yummy...and EASY!
