Lasagna Soup

I had this at a progressive dinner our ward did (for those who were there, it was at Carolyn's house) and it's delicious!

"Freakin' Good" Lasagna Soup - Mandy Peterson
2 lb. ground beef
2 small onions, chopped
2 large cloves garlic, minced or crushed
2 15 oz. cans tomato sauce
2 28 oz. cans italian style tomatoes
crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
2 beef bouillon cubes
6 chicken bouillon cubes
8 cups water
2 tsp. dried oregano
1 tsp. dried thyme
6-8 lasagna noodles, cooked and cut into pieces
mozzarella cheese, shredded
cottage cheese

Brown ground beef, onion and garlic. Drain fat. Add tomatoes (I chop up my tomatoes before I put them in), tomato sauce, bouillon cubes, water, seasonings. Heat to a boil; reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 25 minutes. Add lasagna noodles; continue cooking about 15-20 minutes. Serve hot with a dollop of cottage cheese and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese.

Update

We have been very busy! We have moved, but we still live in the same great neighborhood full of kids to play with. Sergio has felt the baby kick. We taught Riley to say baby and he has started going to Nursery. Riley is growing up so fast, talking alot and doing more and more each day. He says Mama or Mom all day long now. He now comes and kisses my stomach and laughs at my dissapearing belly button. The baby is coming soon and we're looking forward to having another little boy in the the house.

SNOW!!

Riley having fun in all the snow that we received. I built a little snowman for him,

Glasses

Riley wanted to wear my glasses but this is the oly picture Sergio snapped before Riley grabbed them and I didn't want them to break. But I thought it was cute.

Sorry it took me so long to post. But if you look down to Riley's Haircut you can see the before and after pictures.

Ultrasound

Sergio & Riley came with me to my ultrasound yesterday so we could all find out together. It's a boy!!! We are so excited that Riley will have a little buddy to play with! We just have to figure out a name we both like.

Doctor Appointments

I have an appointment for my ultrasound on January 22nd! Sergio,Riley and I will all go together to find out if we're having a girl or a boy. At my appointment last week I heard the heartbeat and had a quick ultrasound to check the size of the baby (8 oz) and I got a couple pictures. Sergio was upset that he wasn't there to hear and see the baby with me. I also know that I will be having another Cesarean so I can schedule it earlier than my June 6th due date.
