 Today was a special one!!

I was awoken at 7am to my phone ringing.  It was my mama, calling to tell me that my sister-in-law was in labor.  We all rushed to meet at the hospital and VERY shortly after, 9am, my new tiny niece arrived!  Her name is Brooklyn and she has got to be one of the most gorgeous babies I have ever seen!  She is already smiling!!  I know they say that this is an uncontrollable reflex and doesn’t mean anything with an infant…but she only does it when being talked to:)  ooooohhhh I’m IN LOOOOVE!!

“I’m half an hour old!”

I took my nephew Dashel (The very proud new BIG BROTHER) home with me while mommy and daddy are at the hospital.  So my house has been filled with very loud laughter, squealing and screaming all day.  They all crashed the second they hit the pillows!

Once the kids were asleep…I got to batch cooking for my “apocalypse freezer”.  Thank you sooo much to Connie for her recipe, in the comments of post #61.  OH MY WORD!!!  People if you wanna taste the most amazing sauce ever, make this recipe.  Jonny and I doubled the recipe and made a gigantic pot of it!!   This sauce can be eaten like soup!!  I probably ate the equivalent of 5 bowls….just sayin.  So Mrs Connie…Hot Dang….thank you soooo much for sharing.  Question though… What did the catering company put it on?  It seriously could top anything but, it would be interesting to know the ‘famous’ collaboration:)
