my 101 updates…

Posted by: rachelboese on: February 24, 2009

so, I’ve tackled a few things…and worked on some others.  here’s what I can remember about the past few months :)

#5 “grow our family or at least begin the attempt” 

   We took a pregnancy test on November 4th, 2008—(and several more later)–the results all the same!  We’re now almost 21 weeks pregnant and expecting a little girl in July!

# Have a campout in our living room..make smores, stay up late watching movies, etc

  While I don’t think we did the smores, we certainly had a night with a fire in the fireplace and movies in the dvd player.

#18 have emma over for a sleepover

   This was pretty easy as Emma stayed with us the night before her baby brother was born :)

75.)  purchase Christmas gifts for foster kiddos each Christmas

  Working for a foster care agency, we certainly understand how these kiddos often have nothing. Each year, tons of kiddos submit wish lists and ask for someone to provide a Christmas for them.  Jonathan and I enjoy this a great deal  (along with many others in our office) 

79.)  Make a special treat for co-workers

   Not sure when, but I definitely made apple crisp from scratch one day.

81.) Sit in a different spot at church at least 5 times (0/5)

   For some reason we got into a real quick of moving around at church…and by now we’ve set in well over 5 spots.

82.)  Try 5 new recipes (3/5) (Bacon Cheeseburger roll up, maple baked apple chicken, and cheesy chicken skillet)

83.)  Learn how to make a dessert from scratch

  I learned to make apple crisp from scratch

84.)  Go to the dentist for 6 month check up

  Went in October 2008  (though I found out I was pregnant a week later and haven’t been back to get wisdom teeth out or cavities filled)

96.) Pay off all of my personal credit cards (3/3)

  Completed this one—and have continued to utilize one as needed…only to pay it off at the end of every month!

Yay! Thanks for the great update, friend! Well done.

I love Bacon Cheeseburger roll up!! That was one new recipe I tried with James and I and for awhile it was a standard. Haven’t had it in a long time, but I’m definitely going to make some soon!
