Chicken Alfredo Pizza

I found this amazing Guiltless Alfredo Sauce recipe on one of my latest favorite recipe sites.

I used it last week to make Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo and was so thrilled with it's taste that I used it on pizza tonight. I also tried this new crust recipe. It's a thinner crust that I made with half wheat and half white and also added italian seasoning to. I layered alfredo sauce, bite size cut up chicken, and tomato, then topped it with mozzarella cheese. Next time red onions might be a yummy addition to the toppings. Anyway, it's defiantly a dinner that I'll be making again.

Doll Bed

Well, I did it! I built my first piece of furniture!! Ok, so it was only a doll bed, but I'm still pretty excited about it. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed building it. I think I may do more of it in the future.

Kylee had been wanting a doll bed for her 18" doll, but they are so expensive to buy. I stumbled across ana-white.com which I absolutely love and made this adorable bed for Kylee's doll Darlene.

I used the tutorials for most of the bedding from here, here, and here.

It was a quick project and only cost a small amount compared to what I could have spent. i think with the bedding, foam for for the mattress, and wood, I spent around $20-$25 dollars.

Happy 2nd Birthday Zane!

Zane just had his 2nd birthday. Such an amazing little guy. There are days I can't seem to catch my breath with him and how active he is. Actually, let me say that's probably most days!

• He is so sweet (well, most of the time)
• loves his big sister
• can't get enough of being outside
• loves balls, books, airplanes, motorcycles, knives (gets frustrated that we won't let him play with real ones), guns, and pretty much anything else that could be remotely dangerous
• His favorite songs to sing are, "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star"& "ABC's"
• He always wants to help when in turn makes everything take at least twice as long to get done but it makes for a happy little boy.
• tries on everyone's shoes that are sitting around and walks around in them
• thinks that 6am is a good time to come into Daddy & Mommy's room and finish out his sleep in their bed
• gets so excited when I make popcorn
• loves talking on the phone especially to his grandparents
• has figured out that Mommy has a hard time resisting his smile (he learned that from his Daddy)

I found a picture of an airplane cake but there isn't enough artist in me to make it myself, so Joshua stepped it and put it together for me. Zane loved it. I think his favorite part was blowing out the fire (candle) and then everyone clapping for him. We ended up lighting the candle again so he could blow it out for a second time. Joshua's parents were able to come down, his great grandparents came over, and my parents joined us on Skype.

Papa & Zane playing with nerf guns. I'm not sure who was having more fun!
