After I made this soup recipe tonight I decided to share it with all of you. It isn't the most healthiest soup by any means, But it is very good! It doesn't take very long to make either! Which is something huge for me!
Here it is........................
It's called "Creamy Chicken Soup"
1 small onion, chopped
1 T. Butter
3 C. chicken broth
4 medium carrots, diced small
3 medium potatoes, peeled & cubed
2 C. chicken, cooked & cubed
2 T. fresh parsley
Salt & Pepper to taste
1 C. Milk
1 8-oz. pkg. cream cheese
10 T. Flour
(we don't add chicken because we love just the veggies)
Saute onion in butter; add broth & Vegetables. Bring to a boil;
reduce heat, cover & simmer until veggies are tender. Add chicken, parsley, salt, & pepper.
Combine flour & milk until smooth in another bowl. Add to vegetables.
Bring to a boil, cook & stir for 2 minutes or until thick. Reduce heat;
add cream cheese ( cut it into small pieces first) until melted.
This soup is very thick. Add milk or water if you need to.
Enjoy!!!
A great soup recipe!
Baby..............
Well............Andrew is going to be a big brother!! We did find out early at the fetal studio in the mall. It all happened so fast and and last minute but it all worked out. We are so excited! Now I just need to come up with a boy name!
16 Weeks!
These aren't the best pictures because i took them myself! But there are too views.
Summer Fun 2009!
This was at Swiss Days in Midway! It was so much fun! Perfect weather! The guy's went golfing while the girls went shopping! He has strawberry all of over him!
Okay, So Chad brought Andrew downstairs with this shirt on and it's actually supposed to be for Bentley (our yorkie). He had know idea and just thought it was cool! I was laughing so hard! Andrew thought it was so funny he didn't want to take it off!
Andrew's face is kind of cheesy in this picture but he LOVES to put on daddy's work shirts! He know's what Sunline is and would wear that shirt all day long until he starts tripping in it from being way too big!
This was at my family reunion in Preston Idaho. We went swimming at a hot springs place. It was great!
I know this picture looks kind of crazy but that is his face when he makes the pig noise. I haven't been able to get a video of it yet but I will someday and post it! You will laugh so hard! This is at a Bee's game. Andrew kept saying "baseball" "ohhh". Loved it!
My New Hair!
So, here is the picture finally! We cut 4 1/2 inches off. I have had my hair short before but it was a little shorter than I wanted it. But I love it! It's so easy to do. In fact just before i took this picture, my hair was flipped out and my bangs were pulled back. I changed it so fast and easy! Chad was worried about me cutting my hair short because ALL GUYS LOVE long hair! I don't know why but they do! So, I did it anyways and everyday Chad says " Man, I love your hair so much" and i'm not kidding when I say everyday! I know normally everyone cuts there hair short before summer and keeps it long during the fall but for some reason i'm always the opposite! And I love it!
Andrew update!
I realized that I haven't done a update on Andrew in a very long time! So, here is a little one! First of all he will be 18 months old this month! He get's to go to nursery! Yay!! I think he will LOVE it! I just hope he stays healthy each week! I can't believe how fast time goes. He tries to say any word we say.
New words he says: Dinner.....oatmeal.......love you.......football...baseball......mind you that these words aren't completely clear but you can mostly tell what he is saying.
He loves to watch baseball and football on t.v.! Of course only with his daddy! He will most of the time help me clean up his toys. Even if he has a toy in his hand and wants to go outside he will take that toy and put it back in the basket and run back to the door to go outside! With out telling him or asking him! He learns so fast!
Last month we took him to a foot doctor to get his feet checked out. He walks on the insides of his feet instead of them being flat. He doesn't have a arch at all. So the doctor gave us little plates to put in his tennis shoes to wear. He has to wear them as much as he can every day. The doc said he will probably need the plates for at least 2 years and we will see from there. Andrew can only wear tennis shoes. No sandles. Which is okay now that summer is slowly dying off. He doesn't mind them. I don't think he even knows they are in his shoes.
He is growing up so fast and every single day there is something new he learns or does or says! We love him to pieces and love the great spirit he is to our family!!
