Babies, Appetizers, and Babies!

I am SO excited that Stephanie had her baby! Baby Skylar was born Friday morning and they went home Saturday around noon. Mommy, baby, and family are all happy, healthy, and I'm sure exhausted. :)

Although she lives across the country from me, I did get the chance to walk across the street and see my neighbor's 8 week old baby for the first time. Between sickness (both them and us), weather, and schedules, this was the first time I got to hold the little man. He's PRECIOUS. I definitely want more babies, but not right now. We'll see about getting prego at the end of the year.

Last night we had "Sampler Night." My husband started calling it this back when we were dating and first got married and had no real grocers, so I would heat up several different appetizer/snack items: pizza rolls, cheese dip, etc and we'd eat that for dinner. He always laughed and enjoyed the meal, despite the lack of meat and potatoes. :) So last night I just didn't feel like cooking (I was exhausted) and I had wanted to cookout since the weather was awesome for the first time in MONTHS. I made cheesedip a new way (and my hubbs loved it saying it was the best he's had), chicken/bacon wraps (YUM), and cocktail weenies. Healthy, indeed. :)

So now I'm on a quest to find tasty, new recipes for appetizers for the coming summer months when we have cookouts or other sampler nights. :)
