Freezer Meals

So, Katy and Beth have inspired me to cook for a month and then freeze my meals. This is always such a crazy time, but when it is done I am super happy for a month or until I have to do it all over again :). I thought maybe if I shared some of my yummy recipes than others would do the same and I can build up my recipe collection for freezer friendly meals. Here is what we had tonight....Brad and I LOVED it!!!

Lemon Shrimp with Parmesan Rice

Ingredients

2 c chx broth
2 c uncooked instant rice
1 lb shrimp
1/2 c green onions
2 t minced garlic
2 T butter
2 T olive oil
3 T lemon juice
1/4 t pepper
1/2 c grated parmesan cheese
2 T minced fresh parsley (I used dried parsley)

1. Boil broth. Add rice and remove from heat, let stand for 5 mins.
2. Cook shrimp, onions and garlic in butter and olive oil until done. Stir in lemon juice and pepper.
3. Add parmesan cheese and parsley to rice and serve with shrimp.

To freeze I completed step #2 and the night I served it I cooked the rice and warmed the shrimp up and added to the cooked rice. We really enjoyed it!! I served it with steamed snap peas that you also nuke so it was super easy!!!

My New Sweet Ride!!

Kylee is just changing so much every moment!!! We took a walk today and she sat in her stroller like a big girl!!!! I had to show it off b/c I just think she is too cute!!!

Playing in the backyard

Kylee and I took advantage of the nice spring like weather today!!!

What a BIG girl!!!

Well, Kylee has mastered sitting!!! And let me tell you, she is now sleeping thru the night!!!! YIPEEE!!!! A few people have told me that babies sleep schedules can be off right before they are about to do something new. Whether this is true or not I am not sure, but hey whatever the facts may be I am now a happy and rested mommy!!!! So proud of you Miss Kylee Ann :)

It has been so long!!!

Hi All.....It has been so long since I have blogged. For one thing our computer was being fixed and we just recently got it back. For another thing I have been super busy with life. So here are a few updated pics of my precious girl. She is now 7 months old and weighing in at 15 lbs and some ounces. She is soooo close to sitting on her own and is enjoying her foods way too much. Her latest thing is NOT sleeping thru the night. We have changed her evening routine a bit and this seems to help some, but not 100%. Any advice I would glady take it. The black under my eyes is increasing daily. Brad and I are a bit exhausted and would love for Kylee to return to her previous sleeping pattern of sleeping thru the entire night!!!! This has been going on for a little over a month now....

I have checked in on everyone's blogs and though I haven't had the time to leave many comments and I so happy to see all is well with everyone.
