Eating with Friends on Cinco de Mayo

I enjoy so much the time that Noah and I get to have friends over for dinner, and tonight was one of those nights! We joined together people who met for the first time over a new (and delicious!) recipe! And because its that time of year... a strawberry pie for dessert! Noah doesn't like berries of any kind, so I always shy away from there, but since so many people were coming over I got to make a yummy strawberry pie! I love strawberries!!

Here is the Tex-Mex recipe that I made:


what you need

1 lb. boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch-wide strips (I used 1 and 1/2)
2 Tbsp. (1/2 of 1-1/4-oz. pkg.) TACO BELL® HOME ORIGINALS® Taco Seasoning Mix
2 Tbsp. flour
1 each green and red pepper, cut into 1-inch-wide strips
1 cup frozen cornI added a can of rinsed black beans and a can of diced tomatoes!
1-1/2 cups TACO BELL® HOME ORIGINALS® Thick 'N Chunky Salsa
1 cup KRAFT Mexican Style Finely Shredded Four Cheese

make it

TOSS chicken with taco seasoning and flour in slow cooker. Stir in vegetables and salsa; cover with lid.

COOK on LOW 6 to 8 hours (or on HIGH 3 to 4 hours).

STIR just before serving; top with cheese.

I served this over rice, but I think tomorrow I will eat it in a tortilla!

This morning Magdalena left this world to be with Jesus. There really isn't too much else I can say but to please pray for Julie and Noah. For now, they do not want any calls, emails or visits. I will you keep you updated on the arrangements.

Making the Decision to Not Make the Decision

I get the question, "Are you going to have any more kids?" asked often. Since finding out Magdalena's diagnosis it was always a tough question to answer. We had always envisioned ourselves with multiple children, but there was always the lingering thought of having to endure this difficult situation again. Although it is less than a one percent chance that we would have another child with T18, the percentage still exists. When pregnant, I said multiple times that I couldn't do this again and my mom constantly reminded me that it is not always that difficult. Being pregnant was physically uncomfortable, but I was referring to the constant emotional exhaustion. As Magdalena continued to do well, Noah and I weren't sure when to begin thinking about other children. Noah and I discussed that I would work really hard at losing my weight, but I was willing to be five pounds more than what I was originally. People poked fun at my not eating Magdalena's birthday cakes...
