Crockpot Buffalo Chicken Lasagna Recipe

This might sound weird, but it was really good.  It has a kick to it of course with buffalo sauce and actually Kevin thought it would be better with a little less buffalo sauce.  Click here to see the recipe.  You might like this blog too, it's all crockpot recipes.

Resources

Here are two books that have helped me to think of things to do with Silas.  

1. The Toddler's Busy Book by Trish Kuffner  

I love this one because you don't buy a lot of things to make the crafts or games or you already have it on hand.

2.  365 Games Smart Babies Play by Sheila Ellison and Susan Ferdinandi

This one is good because he has games and ideas from birth to 15 months.

3.  Super Baby Food by Ruth Yuron

This one is really helpful for making your own baby food, how much food for what age, and recipes

Pumpkin Pancake Recipe, Yum!

Silas loves these right now.

- 1   1/c cup all purpose flour

- 1/2 cup whole wheat flour

-2 tbs. brown sugar

- 2 tsp. baking powder

-1 tsp. ground cinnamon

- 1/2 tsp. salt

- 1/2 tsp ground ginger

- 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg

- 1   1/2 cup milk

- 1/2 cup pumpkin

- 1 egg white lightly beaten

Mix dry ingredients first and than add wet.  Sometimes I use Whole Foods whole wheat pancake mix and omit the first 4 ingredients and salt, you might want to still add a little brown sugar.

 Enjoy!

A day in the life of Silas McKay

Here are a few things Silas likes to do in his day - eat, crawl around, and play with flour.

Waterfire

Providence does this cool thing called Waterfire.  The river runs through the middle of the city and certain months of the year baskets in the water are lit down the river.  It really is a neat thing to go to, music is always playing, gondolas are floating down the river, chandeliers are outside (yes, outside so pretty!) it's like you're in Italy or Europe, and all together it's such a neat atmosphere.  Here are a few pics of it.

Our Apple Picking Trip

So here goes me trying to do a blog. Our first adventure to tell about is apple picking. Silas and I went the other day. The day was gorgeous and the trees were too. Everyone has been telling us the falls in New England are awesome, and so far we haven't been disappointed. It was so cute watching Silas play with the apples and the pumpkins we found. He even stood on his own for a second, but I don't think he realized what he was doing. It won't be long until he's walking. He's actually really fast crawling, I mean if you turn your head and he'll be gone in a second. Anyway, we ate a lot of apples along the way and Silas found a basket to play in too. Here are some of the pictures we took, hopefully I can get the other ones.
