Just a quick update!

So, time has just been flying by!! Here's a quick catch-up:

Keegan is taking steps!! He's up to three without falling. The funniest part is he knows what he is doing is really big because he looks at you with the BIGGEST smile on his face!! He has started throwing fits when we lay him on the changing table. He doesn't do this anywhere else. We have no idea why and are trying to figure something out because he really freaks out about it. I am having to learn how to quickly snap onsie bottoms while he is standing up!! He is also getting good at getting lost in the house. Chris had him in our bedroom and K just took off down the hallway. Chris waited a few minutes (since K loves to be chased) and went after him. Chris came into the living room and there was no K!! He asked if K was in the kitchen with me and he wasn't. Where was he?? He had crawled into our guest bathroom and crawled into the empty bathtub. When we found him, he was standing up IN the bathtub hitting the top of the edge of the tub. We took it to mean that he wanted a bath that night. So, we are making sure to keep the gates locked from now on!!

Chris has started a permanent substitute position as a 5th grade math teacher. He is truly learning by fire!! He comes home with some pretty interesting stories - for sure!! He will have officially been working at Best Buy for a month this Sunday. Why is that a big thing?? That means the he can now purchase items from Best Buy with his employee discount. He can finally get that plasma tv!! While he is worn out from working two jobs, he really has enjoyed doing something different. He is going for a job interview this afternoon for a position with a company that one of our good friends works with. It pays a heck of a lot more than teaching so it could be something for him to seriously consider.

I have been busy being the single parent. Since Chris works 3-4 days a week, I have found that making all of our dinners for the week on Sunday is the best thing for us. We're not eating out much anymore (so we're saving money) and we are trying new things. I have posted a new favorite recipe at the bottom. It sounds very strange but so good!!

We are all excited that we get to go to the new Airhogs stadium on Sunday to see our seats and get our season tickets!! Can't wait for Opening Day!!

2 Point brownies
1 box Ghiradelli Double Chocolate Brownie mix
1 15 oz can black beans

Puree black beans in a blender until completely smooth. Mix with brownie mix. Spray a 9x9 baking dish with Pam and pour mix into it. Bake according to box directions. We store ours in the fridge.

Chris has stated that he doesn't want me to make any other kind of brownie.
