Summer Summer Time

What do you like to do in the Summer time? I normally would say that I like to just hang out in the backyard and get a sun tan...but this year is different :) Now with Ariel here this Summer will be filled with new baby adventures! I am sure that we will be spending a lot of time in the backyard on blankets as she will begin crawling!

One great thing that we will have to get her when she gets older is a backyard swing sets.

If you have never heard of CSN Stores then you seriously need to check out their website! They have sooo many stores on one site and it makes shopping so convenient!

While I was perusing the swing sets I came across this swing set that would sure be sweet for my baby girl when she gets older!

So be sure to head on over to csnstores.com to check out their swing sets!

Super Bowl Dip

As everyone knows the Super Bowl was last Sunday (or unless if you live under a rock FYI).

I made for my first time Buffalo Chicken Dip - oh man was that delish!

Sorry I didn't take any pictures :(

Ingredients:

2 chicken breasts
2 8oz packs of cream cheese
8 oz hot sauce (I used Franks)
8 oz ranch dressing
8 oz cheddar cheese

Directions:

Cook the chicken breasts in boiling water til completely white
Chop the chicken in a food processor til shredded
Add all ingredients EXCEPT the cheddar cheese to a pot on medium heat
Mix together until cream cheese is melted
Once done take the pot off the burner and mix in the cheddar cheese

This dip can be served with chips and celery - ENJOY

A Final Review

Here I am again representing CSN Stores.

TV Stands are somewhat of a necessary when it comes to having a TV...I guess my husband in didn't follow the trend...Our first television in our home was a pull down projector screen so we could not have a tv stand. Then our second tv we got was a flat screen that we mounted to the wall. If we would have a tv stand for our flat screen tv I believe I would pick this one.

It is great to shop at CSN because they have an awesome selection!

And Here We Are Once Again

Thanks to the wonderful people at CSN Stores for another opportunity to do a review for them.

Have you wished you could carry around a super cute backpack or that your kids had the cutest backpack ever? Well you seriously don't have to look any further with the amazing selection of kids backpacks that you will find on CSN's amazing website!

I simply adore the Beatrix Big Kid Papar Owl Backpack :) As most of you know Ariel's room is all decked out in owls so how could I resist!

Sharing Christmas with Pictures

I simply adore the Good Blessings Card from Shutterfly. Since Ariel is on her way and she is our sweet blessing what better way to share the joy of Christmas and God's blessings with our friends and family than with this sweet card and three precious pictures of our baby girl! I love the message behind this card because every good perfect gift comes from our Father in Heaven and I am truly grateful for that (James 1:17). It is truly amazing to be able to experience the true meaning behind Christmas and that is the celebration of God sending his son to this earth to be our propitiation for sin. I also love how the card uses such soft colors and is not hiding the true meaning of Christmas! I am glad to know that Shutterfly has provided cards that reflect the truth that I believe in. I hope that I will be able to share pictures of our sweet baby Ariel with our close family and friends year after year with awesome heartfelt cards from Shutterfly.

Another great way that Tim and I can share our sweet baby girl with our friends and family and wish them a Merry Christmas is with this awesome birth announcement. How precious would Ariel look?

Since her birth is so close to Thanksgiving we could even give thanks to our God for all that he has blessed us with, with this precious Thanksgiving card. This card would again allow us to share Ariel with our family and friends :)

Another great idea from Shutterfly would be a desk calendar which would be a great gift - especially for family that is not close by so each month they'll get to experience a new picture of Ariel.

I hope that you get the chance to check out Shutterfly and all the great cards and gift ideas they have to offer!

In Baby News

At my Dr appt yesterday he let me know that things are going well - considering nothing much was going on last week!

I am 1.5cm dilated and 75% effaced and he is pretty sure that Ariel will be here in less than 10 days :)

I know I have been slacking on posts but I have been so so lazy!
