3 months

Preston turned 3 months old yesterday, and is changing more and more. I feel like he is starting to look like a "baby" now instead of a "newborn". He smiles ALL the time, loves to giggle (he is so ticklish!) and is starting to babble alot more. He coos when you talk to him, and loves kisses on his cheeks. He is getting bigger too, as his 3 months clothes are just about too small for him. Time to get out the 6 month bin and go though it!

We went to play group again yesterday and Reese made a turkey hat for Thanksgiving. It was so cute! She loves Monday playgroup as most of the kids there are her age. I would say there are usually about 15 kids there. We have been talking about Thanksgiving this week, and she is really excited to get to eat turkey on Thursday :)

I found another great crock pot recipe I want to share with you all! Yes, I am becoming the crock pot queen. 1. Because it is so easy to throw everything into when even though I am a stay at home mom, is is too hard to find an hour to stand in the kitchen and "make dinner" 2. Our new house has an induction stove top, and you have to have certain pans for it. Well, of course, our pans don't work on it, and I am trying to sell them on craigslist before purchasing a whole new set of pans. So, I have been cooking with ONE cast iron skillet (the only thing I have that works on it), thus the reason for lots of casseroles and crock pot dinners lately :)

A friend from play group gave me this recipe and it is delicious and SUPER EASY!

Crock Pot Chicken and Dumplings:
3 boneless skinless chicken breasts

3 cans cream of chicken soup

1 cup water

½ small bag frozen mixed veggies

1 onion chopped

2 cans crescent rolls

Place chicken in crockpot. Top with soup, water, veggies and chopped onion. Cook on low 6-7 


hours. After chicken is cooked, pull apart into smaller pieces. Turn crockpot to high. Break each 

triangle dough of crescent rolls in half and roll into balls. Drop into crockpot. Cover and cook on 

high another hour until dough is golden brown on top.
